Know before it matters.

Brewery Winery

Segments

One platform. Every craft producer.

AlchIQ adapts to how your business works — not the other way around.

What every Indian craft producer battles

Hidden true costs
Duty, wastage, and yield buried across tools that do not talk.
Inventory chaos
Kegs, ingredients, and floor counts disconnected from finance.
Disconnected floor data
Readings on paper that never reach the compliance picture.
Five tools, zero integration
POS, accounting, chat, and spreadsheets — zero single source of truth.
Manual excise returns
Spreadsheets, portals, and last-minute advisor fire drills every filing cycle.
Compliance clearance delays
Batches waiting on certificates nobody tracked in one place.

One intelligent platform

Excise returns auto-compiled
Every state format — built from daily ops
Compliance gate enforced digitally
No certificate, no clearance — software-enforced, not chased over chat
True cost per batch
Duty, wastage, and yield loss reconciled in one number
Real-time asset tracking
Kegs, tanks, and casks — dispatch to return, depletion forecast included
Mobile-first floor operations
Brew day logging and pour tracking built for the brewhouse
Compliance exports, ready each month
Delivered to your advisor before they ask for it

Every state. Every segment. Built in.

Indian excise law is state-by-state. Each state has its own
forms, duty tiers, and filing deadlines. AlchIQ knows all of
them — for breweries and wineries separately.

KarnatakaLIVE
Excise Return

Production, clearances, and Karnataka excise exports aligned to your batches.

MaharashtraLIVE
Excise Return

Registers and duty logic for producers across the state, ready for filing windows.

HaryanaLIVE
Excise Return

Electronic duty payment in proof liters, covering the districts that file excise under this state.

Delhi (UT)COMING
Excise Return

Applies within this union territory's own excise jurisdiction only — neighboring districts file under their respective states.

TelanganaCOMING
Excise Return

Brewpub templates and state-aligned production registers.

PunjabCOMING
Microbrewery Permit

New policy cycles for Ludhiana–Chandigarh microbrewery corridors.

One product, every market
MaharashtraLIVE
Winery Compliance Form

India's largest wine region. Vineyard-linked production register, tasting room licence, and dual-zone clearance.

KarnatakaLIVE
Winery Compliance Form

Vineyard regions across the state. Compliance gate enforced at clearance. Vineyard block records linked to clearance register.

Himachal PradeshCOMING
HP Excise Winery Form

Kullu and Kinnaur high-altitude viticulture. Seasonal production windows affect the filing calendar in ways other states don't.

Tamil NaduCOMING
TASMAC Winery Licence

Dindigul and Kodaikanal region. TASMAC-linked clearance. Separate on-premise tasting licence required.

TelanganaCOMING
Winery Compliance Form

Emerging wine region under the state's industrial framework. Monthly compliance clearance summary required for each vintage.

Andhra PradeshCOMING
AP Winery Rules 2019

2019 policy enabled winery licensing. APEDA export linkage required for foreign market compliance documentation.

Winery compliance is not brewery compliance with a different label. Vineyard-linked production registers, vintage declarations, and tasting room licences are built as first-class concepts — not adapted from brewery forms.

Intelligence

And then the intelligence starts
working for you.
Most software tells you what happened. AlchIQ tells you what's about to happen — and what to do about it. Every insight runs on your own data, on infrastructure that never leaves India.
⚗
Fermentation
Flags deviations hours before they become a batch problem
📦
Procurement
Predicts stockouts before they disrupt your brew schedule
📈
Yield
Tracks efficiency across every batch and surfaces what's drifting
🍺
Tap velocity
Tells you which keg runs dry mid-service before it happens
Fermentation IntelligenceTracks gravity, temperature, and pH across every active batch. Flags deviations from your own historical curve hours before they become a problem.
Procurement IntelligenceCompares live stock against consumption rate and upcoming batch schedules. Tells you exactly what to order and when.
Compliance Risk IntelligenceBefore your monthly return compiles, scans the entire period for missing clearances and volume anomalies — so your advisor sees a clean return, not a broken one.
Daily Operations BriefingEvery morning — yesterday's volumes, batches to watch, ingredients to order, and compliance deadlines approaching. One screen. Ninety seconds.
All computation runs locally in India  ·  Zero PII ever leaves your brewery  ·  Your data never leaves the country

Value

Operational impact by function

Batches
Production status available on a single screen, without requiring direct coordination with the brewhouse.
Recipes
Deviation from standard recipe specification identified prior to packaging, not after distribution.
Ingredients & Inventory
Stock shortfalls surfaced days in advance of a scheduled brew, rather than at the point of production.
Goods Received
Procured quantities reconciled against received quantities automatically, eliminating manual mismatch review.
Physical Assets (Kegs/Vessels...)
Full asset accountability by location and status across the fleet.
True COGS
Per-batch cost of goods sold calculated from actual data as production proceeds, not reconstructed at period close.
Compliance & Certification
Sample and certification tracking carried through to closure, removing dependency on manual follow-up.
Excise Returns
Return preparation drawn directly from operational data, reducing filing to a scheduled task rather than a period-end exercise.
Team
A single operational record shared across brewing, operations, and management functions.
Intelligence
Anomalies surfaced within days rather than identified as a loss after the fact. Runs on tenant-isolated data, on infrastructure in India — never shared across organizations.
Mobile (floor operations)
Pour logging, keg scanning, and tank verification captured at the point of activity, not re-entered at end of shift.

The underlying economics

Across procurement, production, and distribution, most operations incur losses that are not consolidated into a single figure — excess procurement, unrecorded wastage, product loss before sale, and compliance penalties from filing errors. These costs typically remain distributed across systems that do not communicate with one another.

In aggregate, this figure is rarely immaterial. A subscription to AlchIQ represents a fraction of that exposure, incurred monthly rather than as a one-time cost.

A 45-day trial — aligned with a full excise filing cycle — is available to evaluate this against an organization's own data.

Subscription tiers

Pricing is structured by scale of operation, not by feature gating that withholds compliance capability from smaller producers.

Starter
For single-location operations. Core production tracking, inventory, and single-state excise compliance.
Operator
For growing breweries. Adds higher batch and keg capacity, multi-seat team access, and the full operational toolset above.
Intelligence
For multi-site operations. Adds multi-state excise handling, unlimited operational scale, and the Intelligence module across all functions.

Relative to the exposure outlined above — unrecorded wastage, product loss before sale, and compliance penalties from filing errors — the cost of any tier represents a fraction of a single avoidable loss event in most operations, incurred as a predictable monthly cost rather than an unplanned one.
