Quotation Sent SMS Template for Manufacturers & Industrial Suppliers
A ready-to-adapt SMS message for manufacturers and industrial suppliers, with placeholders, sample values and compliance notes.
When to Send This Message
Send when a quotation is shared. For manufacturers and industrial suppliers, this is one of the everyday messages that keeps buyers and distributors informed without a phone call. It can be sent manually from a panel at first and automated later through an API.
Industrial buyers search for suppliers by product, specification and location, and then compare capability, certifications and response time.
The SMS Template
India (DLT format)
Dear {#var#}, quotation {#var#} for {#var#} has been emailed to you by [Business Name]. It is valid till {#var#}. Contact {#var#} on {#var#} for queries.International (plain text)
Dear {buyer}, quotation {quote_no} for {product} has been emailed to you by [Business Name]. It is valid till {date}. Contact {contact} on {phone} for queries.Example with sample values
Dear Mr. Agarwal, quotation QT-1102 for MS fabricated brackets has been emailed to you by [Business Name]. It is valid till 5 Nov. Contact Sanjay on 98XXXXXXXX for queries.
With these sample values the message is 174 characters in the standard GSM-7 character set, which is 2 SMS parts (square brackets count as two characters each). Long links or local-language (Unicode) text increase the count, as Unicode SMS allow 70 characters per single part.
Replace [Business Name] with your registered brand name. Links shown use example.com as a placeholder; use your own domain.
Placeholders and Sample Values
| Placeholder | Meaning | Sample value |
|---|---|---|
| {#var#} | Buyer | Mr. Agarwal |
| {#var#} | Quote no | QT-1102 |
| {#var#} | Product | MS fabricated brackets |
| {#var#} | Date | 5 Nov |
| {#var#} | Contact | Sanjay |
| {#var#} | Phone | 98XXXXXXXX |
Filling in each placeholder
- Buyer (sample: Mr. Agarwal): Use the first name or the salutation the customer gave you; fall back to a neutral greeting if the field is empty.
- Quote no (sample: QT-1102): Use the same reference format that appears on your invoices, receipts or software, so customers and staff can match it quickly.
- Product (sample: MS fabricated brackets): Keep the value short and specific; test the longest realistic value to check the message still reads well.
- Date (sample: 5 Nov): Write dates in an unambiguous form such as 14 Oct or 14 Oct 2026; avoid formats like 10/11 that customers read differently.
- Contact (sample: Sanjay): Keep the value short and specific; test the longest realistic value to check the message still reads well.
- Phone (sample: 98XXXXXXXX): Use a number the customer can actually reach during business hours, ideally one already shown on your website.
This template has 6 placeholders and a body of 159 characters before values are filled in. Shorter messages cost less and are more likely to be read in full; aim to keep the filled-in message within one or two SMS parts.
Category and Approval
In India this type of message is usually registered as Service Implicit: it relates to an existing transaction or relationship and can be delivered to numbers on the DND registry. It must not contain promotional content.
Compliance Checklist
- Each {#var#} holds only the kind of value it was registered for; most platforms limit each variable to 30 characters.
- Any link uses a domain whitelisted for your header, as TRAI requires for URLs in commercial SMS.
- The brand name in the message matches your registered business or header.
Rules to keep in mind for Manufacturers & Industrial Suppliers
Claims about certifications (such as ISO or BIS) and standards must be accurate and current. Export marketing must respect the destination country's messaging rules, and B2B contact data is still personal data under the DPDP Act, 2023.
General guidance, not legal advice. Rules change, so confirm current requirements before launch. See our SMS compliance guide for India.
Tips for Better Results
- Keep one purpose per message; if you need to send a reminder and a document, the reminder should still make sense on its own.
- Use the customer's name and a reference number so the message is easy to trust and to search for later.

Send when a quotation is shared. If customers reply, make sure someone on your team monitors and answers.
