Customs API built for revenue management teams in India

Belli rebuilt customs API from first principles for revenue management teams in India — not as a bolt-on to a legacy core. Customs compliance is increasingly complex. Belli provides direct API integration with customs authorities in 50+ countries. India and South Asia represent one of the fastest-growing air cargo markets globally.

Operators routing through Delhi (DEL) — carriers in the class of IndiGo Cargo, SriLankan Cargo — face the same pressure: more volume, tighter slots, and zero tolerance for a load plan that leaves revenue on the ramp. Belli's customs API targets a measurable outcome — 50+ countries automated — and goes live in 10 days for teams operating in India, not 12–18 months. India deployments inherit the same SLA.

The operational reality in India

The friction is specific, not generic.

  • Static pricing with no demand-based rate adjustment — compounded in India by temperature-sensitive pharmaceutical cargo
  • Monthly close taking 30-45 days with manual data pulls — compounded in India by multi-airport operations across India's vast geography
  • Allotment management still tracked in spreadsheets
  • India-specific: ICEGATE customs with GST integration. National Air Cargo Policy modernization.

What changes with Belli

The same operation, re-platformed:

  • Revenue per available cargo tonne-km (RACTK) optimization
  • Yield dashboards by route, aircraft type, and time period
  • Automated AWB billing with zero manual reconciliation

Before Belli: Manual customs filing creates delays and compliance risks. Each country managed separately. After Belli: Automated filing across 50+ countries from a single system. Zero PLACI compliance failures.

How Belli's Customs API works in India

Belli's customs API runs as one connected workflow, configured for India from day one.

In practice, that means canada PACT and UK PreDICT support, EU ICS2 full compliance, and US ACAS/ACMS integration. Belli also covers pre-arrival cargo information filing (PLACI) against India's specific constraints. Every step is auditable, and changes deploy continuously rather than in quarterly batches.

Built for India's requirements

Running cargo in India means living inside its rules, not around them. India and South Asia represent one of the fastest-growing air cargo markets globally.

That shows up in the details: temperature-sensitive pharmaceutical cargo; multi-airport operations across India's vast geography; and india ICEGATE customs system with GST compliance. India adds its own layer — ICEGATE customs with GST integration. National Air Cargo Policy modernization. Carriers such as IndiGo Cargo, SriLankan Cargo, SpiceJet Cargo operate against exactly these conditions.

Going live in 10 days in India

There is no multi-quarter cutover here. Master data and partner connections are stood up against a real test load. Cutover happens with a Belli engineer on the line, not a ticket queue. Post-launch, changes ship continuously rather than waiting for a quarterly release.

The bottom line for Revenue Management Teams in India

Strip away the demos and it is about outcomes. Every week on legacy software is revenue quietly left on the ramp. 50+ countries automated is the outcome Belli is engineered to deliver. Carriers like IndiGo Cargo, SriLankan Cargo, SpiceJet Cargo already operate at this standard. The next step is a working demo, not a six-week sales cycle.
