The problem
Dead stock is dead capital, and it costs more every quarter.
20–30%Of inventory value is the typical annual cost of carrying stock
₹2.5L Cr+Excess inventory in India's supply chains; under 5% is liquidated through organised channels
01
Cash locked in the warehouse
Money tied up in non-moving stock cannot fund growth, payables or new orders.
02
Lower borrowing power
Banks typically exclude slow-moving and obsolete stock from the drawing-power base.
03
Write-downs hit the P&L
Stock is written down to net realisable value, and expired stock often to nil.
04
Expiry runs the clock
Near-expiry stock loses value daily. Expiries of 3–6% of sales are seen in Indian pharma.
05
Tax leakage on destruction
Destroying or writing off goods can trigger GST input-tax-credit reversal.
06
Space, handling and attention
Warehouse space and team time go to stock that will never ship.
Why today's routes fall short
Scrap dealers pay little and hide the price. Deep discounts to the channel damage brand and pricing. In-house teams lack buyer reach. One-off auctions are slow and manual.
What we liquidate
Every kind of dead, expired and excess stock, across industries.
Expired & near-expiry
Short-dated stock sold before its value hits zero, with date-aware pricing.
Obsolete & end-of-life
Superseded models, discontinued SKUs and legacy spares.
Dead & slow-moving

Excess & overstock
Over-ordered and over-produced lots, planned exits and seasonal leftovers.

Customer returns, open-box and refurbished units, graded and resold.
