Stock Reports Software for Indian Businesses: Ageing, ABC, Slow Movers and Expiry in One Place
For owners, finance heads and category managers: see which stock is old, which matters most, and which is about to expire, without building a spreadsheet.
Stock reports software is where the money tied up in a godown becomes visible. A stock summary says what you have; it does not say what has been sitting for six months or which fifty items make up most of the value.
Most businesses build those views by exporting to a spreadsheet each month, so they are late, different every time, and rarely done at all.
This page covers what missing stock reports cost, an illustrative example, and the reports Apragya produces from the same stock ledger.
An example: a Mysuru incense maker
Take an illustrative agarbatti and dhoop maker with around 700 finished and raw material items across a factory store and a dispatch godown. The owner suspects too much money is sitting in slow fragrances.
One ledger, the reports the owner used
Stock ledger
Every movement, with quantity and value.
Stock ageing
On hand by 0 to 30, 31 to 60, 61 to 90 and 90+ days.
ABC analysis
Items ranked by consumption value.
Slow movers
Stock with no outward movement in the window.
Batch expiry
Batches approaching their dates.
Reserved stock
Quantity already promised.
By warehouse
Each item across locations.
The slow movers report showed eleven fragrances with stock and no sales for four months. Purchase stopped buying their raw materials, sales ran a scheme to clear them, and the ABC report moved monthly counting effort onto the forty items that carried most of the value.
What missing stock reports cost
Cash in old stock
Slow items keep being bought while old stock sits.
Effort spread thin
Counting and review time spent equally on every item.
Expiry found late
Near-expiry batches noticed at the stock take.
Monthly spreadsheet work
Reports rebuilt by hand, each time differently.
How inventory reports work in Apragya
Step 1 of 5
Stock summary
Quantity and value by item, and by warehouse.
- Stock summary: Quantity and value by item, and by warehouse.
- Ageing: On-hand quantity bucketed by days since the earliest receipt.
- ABC and slow movers: Items ranked by consumption value, and stock with no outward movement.
- Expiry reports: Batch expiry, plus serial warranty and AMC expiry.
- Checks: Reserved stock, batch balance history and a ledger drift check.
Why a stock ageing report beats a spreadsheet
An export is a snapshot someone has to reshape. Reports that read the ledger directly are the same every month, can be filtered by warehouse or company, and agree with each other because they share one source.
Monthly exports, against Apragya
| Feature | Monthly exports | Apragya |
|---|---|---|
| Ageing | Rebuilt by hand | Buckets from the ledger |
| ABC ranking | Rarely done | By consumption value |
| Slow movers | Guessed | No outward movement in window |
| Company view | Separate files | Filtered or consolidated |
| Consistency | Varies by month | One source |
