“I AM HAPPY TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH TALLY SOLUTIONS AND THE DECISION TO DO ONLY TALLY BUSINESS.”
A
Post graduate diploma in computer applications and MBA, Mr. Mohanan Thampuran woke up to his call of entrepreneurial desire. But before starting his venture - M/s. Manvish Info Solutions Pvt. Ltd.- gathered 10 years of work experience in various companies so that he would be invincible on the face of adversities. During 1999-2000, he quit his coveted job and started a small training centre for computer courses at Aluva, Cochin. During that time, many students enquired about Tally course, which gradually ignited his interest in Tally. Mr. Mohanan says, “Since I wanted to give official certification of Tally, I approached Tally Solutions to approve our centre as an authorized Tally academy and I was given the due approval in 2001.” Following the success of Tally academy, Mr. Mohanan approached Tally for becoming a reseller or partner and was bestowed upon with that chance as Tally Bronze partner and then given the chance to sell full range of Tally products. He added, “Business opportunity was growing, as we started getting enquiries for software products. Today, we are so overwhelmed with Tally business that we are not thinking about other business. We do have our own training,
support, and development centres - all approved and authorized by Tally Solutions Pvt. Ltd. We are known as specialist in enterprise level end-to-end solution provider.” When Mr.Mohanan started the business he had to undergo hardships. The company was only selling licenses and it was less known in the market. On an average they could sell only 4-5 licenses a month, which was not good enough to sustain the business. But, gradually the company realized that more than products, support could help them to attract more customers. So they started emphasizing on support and services, which helped them to generate more leads. Since then, the formula of support has helped them gaining patronage of many customers in and around Kerala. But Mr. Mohanan adds, “Projects like Cochin International Airport and Indus Motors have given us satisfaction. We have also made a major ERP implementation at Kerala Ayurveda Private Ltd.” Projects with Indus Motors, where Manvish Info Solutions helped them in real time MIS reports generation, and Cochin International Airport had come as shot in the arm for Mr.Mohanan. It had given the company confidence to move forward in the enterprise level solutions.
Manvish Info Solutions turnover crossed Rs.3 crore last year and efforts are on to double the number this year. Mr. Mohanan says, “I am happy to be associated with Tally Solutions and the decision to do only Tally business. I have made many friends across India thanks to Tally.” To keep up the tempo, the company has invested heavily on manpower development and its skill development; so that it gets aligned with the vision of Mr. Mohanan, who wants to develop end-to-end customer solutions in enterprise business and would like to third- party devices integration on Tally platform as well. Finally… As a closing remark, a happy man, Mr. Mohanan says, “You can very well trust Tally and the man behind it - Mr. Bharat Goenka.”
