- Ram ram ji. Today's rate is below. Can you unload tomorrow by nine?
- Yes, I will come at nine. Send the weighment slip on this number.
- Done. The slip and the payment note will both come here.
For Suratgarh's mustard oil mills, the cotton and wheat trade of a Sri Ganganagar district tehsil town, the shops beside its Air Force and Army stations and the cabs from its junction: what a grower's or buyer's first message allows for the next 24 hours, which languages a template can use, and what each message costs.
See it work
One mustard grower's question, and the 24 hours it opens
A grower near Suratgarh asks an oil mill for the day's seed rate at four in the afternoon. Drag along the day to see what the mill may send while the window is open, and what needs a template once it closes.
Every message inside the window is a service message at ₹0.145 on InfiQ, and it can use the grower's own words. The habit worth building at a Suratgarh mill is finishing the weighment slip and the payment note before four the next afternoon.
Once the window shuts, a payment reminder has to be an approved utility template at ₹0.19, in Hindi or English. The 24-hour service window explains the rule, and any new message from the grower starts the 24 hours again.

Suratgarh and its district, in nine lines
From Invest India's ODOP list and Rajasthan Tourism's Sri Ganganagar page; the town's history and institutions are general background from Wikipedia.
Suratgarh is a tehsil and municipality in Sri Ganganagar district, and the seasonal Ghaggar flows through the north of the tehsil.[3]
The town was founded by Maharaja Surat Singh and was once called Sodal; Maharaja Ganga Singh later built a hunting lodge there and linked it to the railway.[3]
Suratgarh Junction is on the Jodhpur–Bathinda line, the town's rail link north into Punjab.[3]
Beside the town are the Suratgarh Super Thermal Power Station, an Air Force station, a military station and the Central State Farm, a large mechanised farm set up in 1956.[3]
Cotton and wheat are the big crops around the town; cement factories use ash from the power station, and gypsum is mined nearby.[3]
Rajasthan Tourism calls Sri Ganganagar the food basket of Rajasthan: the Gang Canal that Maharaja Ganga Singh built, completed in 1927, turned dry land green.[2]
The district grows wheat, mustard, cotton, bajra, sugarcane and gram, kinnow is its major fruit, and agriculture is its main livelihood.[2]
Invest India's ODOP list names mustard oil for Sri Ganganagar district.[1]
The nearest airport Rajasthan Tourism names for the district is Amritsar's, about 271 km from Sri Ganganagar city.[2]

Hindi templates, replies in Bagri
The town speaks Bagri, Rajasthani and Hindi. Only Hindi is on Meta's template list, beside English and Punjabi for buyers further up the line.
Bagri and Rajasthani are not Meta template languages, so a slip, a dispatch note or a reminder goes as a template in Hindi, English or Punjabi. Each language version is a separate template under the same name, and every template must be approved before it is sent.
Replies inside the 24-hour window are not templates, so staff answer in whatever a grower or buyer writes. InfiQ's own support works in English and Hindi.

Questions Suratgarh businesses ask
- Mustard growers ask our Suratgarh oil mill for the seed rate after the rabi harvest. Can we send the rate to every grower each morning?
- Only to growers who agreed to receive it. A rate sent unasked is a marketing template at ₹0.94, approved in Hindi or English, for growers whose opt-in is recorded. A grower who writes first gets the rate as a reply at ₹0.145, with no template, for 24 hours.
- Our mill sends mustard oil tins from Suratgarh to shops in Punjab by truck. Can the dispatch note carry the truck number and the invoice?
- Yes. A dispatch note for an order the shop placed is a utility template at ₹0.19, with the invoice PDF in its header and the truck number and tin count as variables. A shop in Bathinda on an Indian number costs the same India rate as one in Sri Ganganagar.
- Households at the Suratgarh Air Force Station order groceries from our shop. Can we tell them when an order is ready?
- Yes. An order-ready or delivery note for an order the customer placed is a utility template at ₹0.19. If the customer writes back to change it, your answers for the next 24 hours are replies at ₹0.145. A festival offer needs the customer's opt-in first.
- Cotton buyers write to our Suratgarh commission agency late at night. If we answer at ten the next morning, do we need a template?
- No, as long as you answer within 24 hours of the buyer's last message. Meta's customer service window runs 24 hours from it, so a ten o'clock reply to an eleven-at-night question is a free-form reply at ₹0.145. After it closes, open with an approved template.
- Passengers off the Jodhpur–Bathinda line book our cab at Suratgarh Junction. What does a pickup reminder the night before cost?
- A reminder about a ride the passenger booked is a utility template at ₹0.19 per delivered message, with the pickup time, the driver's name and the vehicle number as variables. A passenger who replies to change the time opens a 24-hour window for replies at ₹0.145.
- Growers in Suratgarh tehsil write to us in Bagri. Can our WhatsApp templates be in Bagri too?
- No. Bagri is not one of Meta's template languages, so templates go in Hindi (hi), English (en_IN) or Punjabi (pa). Replies are not templates: inside the 24-hour window your staff can answer a grower in Bagri, Rajasthani or any language they write in.
