<Steps>
  <Step title="Rajesh opens Data Import/Export">

    paper ledger. He opens **Settings → Data Import/Export** on his Windows
    PC to bring it into BillBasket.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Download the template">
    He downloads the product import template first, so his columns —
    name, price, tax rate, opening stock — line up with what BillBasket
    expects.

    Rajesh fills in his products, including Parle-G Biscuits at ₹10, Tata
