Software Development Company in India

Custom software, CRMs, portals and SaaS for businesses that have outgrown spreadsheets and off-the-shelf tools. Built in Pune by a team that ships its own products, delivered across India.

Custom Software Development

Most Indian businesses run on a patchwork: Tally for accounts, Excel for everything else, WhatsApp groups for operations, and three SaaS subscriptions that do not talk to each other. Custom software is what you build when that patchwork starts costing you customers, staff hours or sleep.

Codelith Lab is a software development company in Pune that builds and runs its own products (the ZupiChat WhatsApp CRM, the EditoHub marketplace app, and a hosting platform), so we know the difference between software that demos well and software that survives 10,000 users. We bring that to client work: a paid discovery sprint so you know exactly what you are buying, milestone-based delivery, documented code, and full ownership of the source and IP.

What we build

  • CRM and sales systems tailored to your pipeline, with WhatsApp Business API, IVR and email built in, so leads are never lost between tools.
  • Customer, vendor and partner portals: order tracking, ticketing, documents, invoices, KYC, approvals.
  • Operations software: inventory, production planning, field-staff apps, dispatch and logistics dashboards, school and clinic management.
  • SaaS products and MVPs: multi-tenant architecture, subscription billing with Razorpay or Stripe, admin panels, public APIs, white-label versions.
  • Integrations and automation: Tally, Zoho, Shopify, WooCommerce, Google Workspace, payment gateways, government APIs (GST, e-way bill, DigiLocker), and AI agents where they save real hours.
  • Rescue and modernisation of legacy PHP or .NET systems whose original developer is gone: audit, stabilise, document, then improve.

How a project runs

  1. Discovery sprint (2 weeks, ₹49,999, credited to the build). Process mapping with your team, user stories, data model, clickable prototype, architecture, and a fixed quote with milestones. You can take this document to any vendor.
  2. Build in milestones. Two-week sprints, a staging URL you can test from day 15, and a demo at the end of every sprint. Payments follow milestones, not calendar months.
  3. Quality gates. Automated tests for critical flows, security review (OWASP top 10, role-based access, audit logs), load testing for the numbers you expect, and DPDP Act-aware data handling.
  4. Launch and training. Data migration from your spreadsheets or old system, role-wise training recorded on video, and a 30-day stabilisation period.
  5. Run it. Optional support and improvement retainer, or a clean handover to your in-house team with documentation and CI/CD in place.

Stack and engineering practices

Laravel and Node.js on the backend, React or Next.js on the web, Flutter for mobile, MySQL or PostgreSQL, Redis, and deployment on AWS, Contabo or your own servers. Git with code review on every merge, CI pipelines, staging and production environments, monitoring and alerting from day one, daily backups with tested restores. Everything documented so the next engineer, yours or ours, is productive in a day.

Why a Pune team is a good choice for an India-wide business

Pune is one of India’s largest software engineering hubs, which means senior talent without Bengaluru or Mumbai overheads. You work in the same time zone with a team that understands GST, UPI, WhatsApp-first customers and Indian scale. And because we run our own products, our engineers have been on call for real users; they build accordingly.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

At Codelith Lab, business applications start at ₹1,49,999 and SaaS MVPs at ₹3,49,999, after a ₹49,999 discovery sprint that fixes the quote. Dedicated developers are ₹60,000 a month. Indian market rates run from ₹1 lakh for simple tools to ₹50 lakh+ for enterprise platforms.
Because a quote without discovery is a guess, and guesses turn into change requests and arguments. The sprint produces a prototype, a data model and a fixed quote you can take anywhere. It is credited if you build with us.
