Building the compliance layer of India.
Fortax is a product of IFTS IT Solutions Pvt. Ltd. — incubated at the IIM Lucknow STPI centre, backed by a MeitY grant and a StartupPulse term sheet. Since 2019, building what an Indian business and its CA actually need.
Compliance should be invisible, not annual
An Indian business runs on six things that do not talk to each other: Tally, Excel, WhatsApp, paper, a phone call to the CA, and hope. Nothing in that list knows what the GST portal knows. Nothing in it scales past the person holding it together.
So Fortax builds the layer that does: one place for sales, purchases, expenses, invoicing, GST filing and the client conversation, and an AI that reads them. The filing is prepared by code and signed off by a person — never the other way round.
Every figure comes from an engine with a source. The AI reads it out, explains it and drafts around it; it does not invent it.
