Surat polishes ~90% of the world's diamonds and weaves ~40% of India's man-made fabric, with USD 10.55 billion in FY2024-25 exports. EaseUp gives its diamantaires and weavers Virtual CFO firepower against volatile margins and tariffs.
EaseUp embeds a seasoned Virtual CFO at a fraction of a full-time hire's cost. With 15+ years across 500+ businesses, Rs 1,500 crore+ raised and 55,000+ compliances at zero penalties, we bring forex-aware planning, inventory-led cash discipline and export-compliance rigour to diamonds and textiles.
Surat, India's "Global Trade Hub," logged USD 10.55 billion in exports in FY2024-25. It processes ~90% of the world's diamonds, with gems and jewellery nearly 70% of city exports, while South Gujarat's textiles add 25%+ to state GDP. The 2023 Surat Diamond Bourse anchors the DREAM City corridor.
Startup Ecosystem: Gujarat is DPIIT's best-performing startup ecosystem five times running, and Surat is among India's fastest-rising Tier-2 startup cities, with "textile-tech" an emerging cluster. The Diamond Bourse for 65,000+ professionals and 2,000-acre DREAM City are diversifying it beyond trade.
Key economic, startup and industry indicators for the city.
Gujarat levies professional tax of Rs 200/month (max Rs 2,500/year) on salaries above Rs 12,000; nil below. The Startup Policy gives Rs 20,000/month sustenance (Rs 25,000 with a woman co-founder) for a year and seed support up to Rs 30 lakh. SEZs like DREAM City offer duty and tax benefits. Founders must file GST returns, TDS, ROC annual filings and professional-tax registration.

For most Surat businesses, EaseUp's Virtual CFO engagements range from about Rs 40,000 to Rs 2,00,000 per month, depending on scope, transaction volume and export complexity. A small powerloom unit or early textile-tech startup sits at the lower end; a multi-crore diamond export house needing forex, fundraising and board reporting sits higher. That is a fraction of the Rs 30-60 lakh annual cost of a full-time CFO. We set a fixed monthly fee after a free consultation, so there are no surprises.
