Dealer dues respond to a legal notice with the e-way-bill-backed statement of account; Morbi manufacturers are largely Udyam-registered and can take dealers and builders to the Gujarat Facilitation Council. Cheque dues go under Section 138.
Ceramics, tiles and sanitaryware in Ahmedabad
Ahmedabad’s textile, chemical and pharma units in Narol, Vatva and Naroda sell on long credit to traders and processors across India, and dues often stretch well past the agreed period. Most suppliers are Udyam-registered micro and small manufacturers, which makes MSME Samadhaan before the Gujarat Facilitation Council a strong route when a notice alone does not work.
Dealer credit of 60 to 120 days on truckload invoices, with breakage and shade claims used to withhold payment.
Proof to collect
Typically dealer agreements, invoices and e-way bills, transport receipts, breakage claims settled on delivery and the dealer’s ledger confirmations.
- Avoid: breakage claims accepted months after delivery
- Avoid: dealers in other states who stop answering
- Avoid: credit extended beyond the dealer agreement limit
