Packaging units are mostly Udyam-registered small manufacturers supplying larger buyers, so the MSME Act route is strong: notice citing the 45-day rule, then Samadhaan with statutory interest. Artwork approvals defeat most quality disputes.
Packaging and printing in Tiruppur
Tiruppur is India’s knitwear capital, with thousands of job-workers, dyers and garment units billing exporters and domestic brands. Domestic dues between units are mostly micro and small enterprises on both sides, so the MSME Act’s 45-day rule and Samadhaan apply; overseas buyer dues need a different approach.
45 to 90 day terms against POs and artwork approvals, with payment delayed by claims about print quality or quantity.
Proof to collect
Typically POs, approved artwork and proofs, delivery challans and GRNs, invoices and quality acceptance.
- Avoid: printing without signed artwork approval
- Avoid: dies and cylinders made without a PO
- Avoid: short-shipment claims not answered in writing
