Indiaโs pharmaceutical industry is one of the largest in the world, serving over 140 crore people with medicines every day. Behind this vast network are 10 lakh chemists and 2 lakh distributors โ the true backbone of Indiaโs pharma trade.
Yet, hidden in this supply chain is a massive productivity drain: manual Purchase Entry.

Total pharma businesses = 12 lakh (10 lakh chemists + 2 lakh distributors)
Average Purchase Entries per day (per business) = 10
Total Purchase Entries daily = 1.2 crore
Now add time:
1 Purchase Entry = 15 minutes (0.25 hours)
1.2 crore ร 0.25 hours = 30 lakh hours wasted every day
Over 30 days = 9 crore hours wasted every month
Thatโs 9 crore hours lost every month โ only on manual Purchase Entry.
โThis is not just a statistic. It represents the time, effort, and quality of life of lakhs of entrepreneurs and their teams.

For more than three decades, Marg ERP has been tackling this challenge step by step:
1992 โ Marg launched its first software for pharma manufacturers.
1998 โ Distribution software introduced with CSV Purchase Entry Import.
2010 โ Chemist software launched with CSV Purchase Entry Import.
Later โ Enhanced solutions with Excel and PDF to Purchase Entry Import.
Then came the breakthrough: Digital Purchase Entry. Distributor entries reached chemists directly via Marg servers and were uploaded in one click.
This approach transformed workflows. Today, 75% of all computerized chemists in India use Marg ERP.

One gap still remained: hard copy Purchase Entries.
Chemists told us โ โWe still receive paper invoices. Canโt we enter them faster?โ
The answer: Marg Genie App.
๐ธ How it works:
1.Take a photo of the Purchase Entry.
2.Upload through Marg Genie App.
3.The entry automatically converts and posts into ERP.

Marg ERP already enables:
40 lakh Purchase Entries/month via Digital Import
2 crore Purchase Entries/month via CSV/Excel/PDF Import
With Photo-to-Purchase Entry, the adoption will grow exponentially.
๐ For 1.75 lakh chemists + 80,000 distributors, this means saving 9 crore hours every single month.
