New Update

Delhi State Industrial & Infrastructure Development Corporation (DSIIDC)

constantly received complaints from customers about DSIIDC shops overcharging

for liquor and not providing the desired brands. To solve this problem,DSIIDC

has developed a barcode solution in-house for deployment at its shops. The

Excise Department of the Government of NCT of Delhi has issued instructions to

all the L-I to provide 13-digit barcodes on the label of each bottle. Under the

system when goods are received at shops, their barcodes are scanned and the

database is updated. When a bottle is sold, its barcode is scanned again, which

is verified by the system installed at the shop, which in turn displays the

value of the bottle(s) being sold. The customer thus knows how much he has to

pay for the items purchased. Immediately, stocks are also reduced from the

database. This ensures that there is no overcharging and sales of liquor can be

tracked easily. Earlier, the sales reports at each shop were compiled every

weekend and sent to DSIIDC, based on which DSIIDC made further decisions. With

the barcode solution in place, sales reports are made at the end of every day

and sent to DSIIDC.
