Digitalization in Infrastructure Development
Kalpataru Group, a prominent name in India’s infrastructure development, has taken a significant step towards digitalization by implementing a custom data management system. This initiative has allowed for the efficient integration of data from various legacy systems, enabling the company to generate insightful analytics reports with ease. As Kalpataru’s strategic IT partner, we have facilitated meticulous data cleansing, organization, and validation in accordance with government standards and tax regulations. Our advisory approach led to the introduction of an Automated Tax Compliance and Reporting Solution, which automated the creation of tax returns, audit trails, and tax credit calculations. This advancement has saved the company 4 to 8 man-months of manual labor and ensured ongoing compliance with regulatory requirements.
Transitioning from Manual to Digital
Kalpataru faced significant challenges with its outdated accounting system, which was susceptible to errors that could be costly. The management of indirect taxes for their extensive transaction volume was a particular challenge. The limited ability to retrieve detailed transaction data made it difficult to generate the required audit fi les, which are mandatory for compliance with the GST Network (GSTN) and National Informatics.
Challenges Overcome:
- Outdated Accounting Practices: Legacy systems were prone to costly errors.
- Indirect Tax Management: The large scale of transactions made tax management cumbersome.
- Data Retrieval Limitations: Accessing detailed transaction data for audit files was challenging.
- Compliance with Data Standards: Adhering to GSTN & NIC regulations required rigorous data validation.
Preparing for A Digital Future
In response to these challenges, Kalpataru Group implemented a comprehensive solution. A data warehouse was established to streamline the collection of data from multiple legacy systems. An Automated Tax Compliance and Reporting Solution was also deployed to facilitate the generation of tax returns, audit documents, and tax credit computations. This system included over 400 error checks that scanned millions of records, efficiently extracting both summary and detailed transaction data. Data cleansing, organization, and validation were performed to ensure compliance with GSTN guidelines and tax laws.
Key Benefits realized

- Streamlined Analytics: Advanced data analytics capabilities enabled the easy generation of reports, providing key data insights for informed decision-making.
