How to Automate Mandi Commission (Patti) Calculation — Step-by-Step Guide

If you are still calculating mandi commission manually — by hand or in Excel — you are losing 2–3 hours every single day. This guide shows you exactly how to automate the entire patti calculation process using modern mandi software.

What Goes Into a Mandi Patti?

A mandi patti (also called a sale statement or patti voucher) is the financial settlement document given to a farmer after his produce is sold at the mandi. It typically includes:

1. Total sale value (rate × weight)
2. Commission deduction (your arhtiya fee, typically 4–8%)
3. Market fee / Mandi Cess (APMC levy, varies by state)
4. Hamali charges (loading/unloading labour)
5. Palledari (packing labour)
6. Weight deductions (for moisture, wastage)
7. Net payable to farmer
