What this solves

What a cottonseed and khol trader deals with today, and what MatruOS sets up for it

01Today

Feed dealers take cake on credit and pay late; dues are in a bahi and nobody chases them on time. Truck weight shortages between gin and mill are not claimed.

02In MatruOS

MatruOS sets up 8 routines, 2 workflows, 3 registers and 6 licences for a cottonseed and khol trader, with an AI team that reads your own records and prepares the work.

03What changes

The right person is reminded at the right time, approvals wait for whoever decides, and every licence has a renewal reminder. Anything that sends, pays, signs, files or deletes waits for a person's approval.

Where you sit

MatruOS starts from how your business earns

Your customers

  • Dairy farmers and gaushalas (whole seed)
  • Cattle-feed dealers and village shops (cake)
  • Compound feed makers
  • Absorbent cotton, paper and cellulose makers (linters)

Your suppliers

  • Ginning and pressing factories (seed)
  • Delinting mills (linters)
  • Oil mills (cake, washed oil)
  • Brokers (dalal)
  • Truck operators

Credit and cash

Gins paid same day to 7 days (often RTGS against the bill); oil mills pay 7-15 days; feed dealers take cake on 15-45 days and pay in instalments; some mills give advance for assured seed supply

Seed is a fast cash trade inside a week; cake ties up money for 1-2 months; holding cake from Feb-Mar for the Apr-Jul fodder gap needs godown and bank or own funds; margins swing with daily rates
