ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Item 1. Business
Overview
TraQiQ, Inc. (along with its wholly owned subsidiaries, referred to herein as the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of California on September 9, 2009 as Thunderclap Entertainment, Inc. On July 14, 2017, Thunderclap Entertainment, Inc. changed its name to TraQiQ, Inc. On July 19, 2017, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (“Share Exchange”) with the stockholders of OmniM2M, Inc. (“OmniM2M”) and TraQiQ Solutions, Inc. dba Ci2i Services, Inc. (formerly Ci2i Services, Inc. - amended November 6, 2019) (“Ci2i”) whereby the stockholders of OmniM2M and Ci2i agreed to exchange all of their respective shares, representing 100% ownership in OmniM2M and Ci2i in exchange for 12,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, respectively. The OmniM2M Shareholders and the Ci2i Shareholders have each been issued their respective 12,000,000 shares on a pro rata basis based on their respective holdings in OmniM2M and Ci2i in the Share Exchange Agreement. The Share Exchange was accounted for as a reverse merger whereas Ci2i is considered the accounting acquirer and TraQiQ, Inc. is considered the accounting acquiree. For accounting purposes, the acquisition of OmniM2M is recorded at historical cost in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 805-50-25-2 as this is considered an acquisition of entities under common control as the management of the Company and OmniM2M control the activities of the respective companies. Prior to the merger with Ci2i and acquisition of OmniM2M, the Company was considered a shell company under Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

The transaction became effective upon the execution of the Share Exchange Agreement by Sikka and the Company; and Transport IQ, Inc, is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Because TransportIQ was commonly controlled and owned, the transaction was recorded at the historical carrying value of TransportIQ’s assets and liabilities.
On May 16, 2019, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Mann-India Technologies Private Ltd., an Indian Corporation (“Mann”). On January 2, 2020, Mann changed its name to TRAQIQ Solutions Private Limited (“TRAQ Pvt Ltd”).

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Risk Factors Related to Our Business
General Risks Relating to Our Business, Operations of Financial Condition
We have a limited operating history and are subject to the risks encountered by early-stage companies.
Because our operating company has a limited operating history, you should consider and evaluate our operating prospects in light of the risks and uncertainties frequently encountered by early-stage companies in rapidly evolving markets. For us, these risks include:
● risks that we may not have sufficient capital to achieve our growth strategy;
● risks that we may not develop our product and service offerings in a manner that enables us to be profitable and meet our customers’ requirements;
● risks that our growth strategy may not be successful; and
● risks that fluctuations in our operating results will be significant relative to our revenues.
These risks are described in more detail below. Our future growth will depend substantially on our ability to address these and the other risks described in this section. If we do not successfully address these risks, our business would be significantly harmed.
Our operating losses and working capital deficiency raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. If we do not continue as a going concern, investors could lose their entire investment.
Our operating losses and working capital deficiency raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. If we do not generate revenues, do not achieve profitability and do not have other sources of financing for our business, we may have to curtail or cease our development plans and operations, which could cause investors to lose the entire amount of their investment.
If we are unable to manage our anticipated post-Share Exchange Agreement growth effectively, our business could be adversely affected.
We anticipate that a significant expansion of our operations and addition of operating subsidiaries, including one in the United States, and new personnel will be required in all areas of our operations in order to implement our post-Share Exchange business plan. Our future operating results depend to a large extent on our ability to manage this expansion and growth successfully. For us to continue to manage such growth, we must put in place legal and accounting systems, and implement human resource management and other tools. We have taken preliminary steps to put this structure in place. However, there is no assurance that we will be able to successfully manage this anticipated rapid growth. A failure to manage our growth effectively could materially and adversely affect our ability to market our crowd funding platform in multiple venues.
Increasing competition within our emerging industry could have an impact on our business prospects.
The Industrial Internet of Things market is an emerging industry where new competitors are entering the market frequently. These competing companies may have significantly greater financial and other resources than we have and may have been developing their products and services longer than we have been developing ours. Although we anticipate that our portfolio of products and related revenue stream sources are broad, increasing competition may have a negative impact on our profit margins.
Our business is subject to risks generally associated with fluctuating economic tendencies in the capital markets.
The demand for our products can change over time due to fluctuations in the global and local economies and in the related capital requirements of small and medium-sized enterprises. These fluctuations could negatively impact our future revenue streams.
We may not be able to adequately protect our proprietary technology, and our competitors may be able to offer similar products and services, which would harm our competitive position.
Our success depends in part upon our proprietary technology. We rely primarily on trademark, copyright, service mark and trade secret laws, confidentiality procedures, license agreements and contractual provisions to establish and protect our proprietary rights. Despite these precautions, third parties could copy or otherwise obtain and use our technology without authorization or develop similar technology independently. We also pursue the registration of our domain names, trademarks, and service marks in the United States. We cannot assure you that the protection of our proprietary rights will be adequate or that our competitors will not independently develop similar technology, duplicate our products and services or design around any intellectual property rights we hold.
If third parties claim that we infringe their intellectual property, it may result in costly litigation.
We cannot assure you that third parties will not claim our current or future products infringe their intellectual property rights. Any such claims, with or without merit, could cause costly litigation that could consume significant management time. As the number of product and services offerings in the crowd funding market increases and functionalities increasingly overlap, companies such as ours may become increasingly subject to infringement claims. Such claims also might require us to enter into royalty or license agreements. If required, we may not be able to obtain such royalty or license agreements or obtain them on terms acceptable to us.
We may need additional financing. Any limitation on our ability to obtain such additional financing could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Although we expect that the proceeds from the offering we completed will be sufficient to implement our business plan, there can be no assurance that we will not require additional capital. The raising of additional capital could result in dilution to our stockholders. In addition, there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional capital if we need it, or that if available, it will be available to us on favorable or reasonable terms. Any limitation on our ability to obtain additional capital as and when needed could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
If we fail to maintain proper and effective internal controls, our ability to produce accurate and timely financial statements could be impaired, which could harm our operating results, our ability to operate our business and investors’ views of us.
Ensuring that we have adequate internal financial and accounting controls and procedures in place so that we can produce accurate financial statements on a timely basis is a costly and time-consuming effort that will need to be evaluated frequently. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires public companies to conduct an annual review and evaluation of their internal controls. Our failure to maintain the effectiveness of our internal controls in accordance with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could have a material adverse effect on our business. We could lose investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, which could have an adverse effect on the price of our common stock. In addition, if our efforts to comply with new or changed laws, regulations, and standards differ from the activities intended by regulatory or governing bodies due to ambiguities related to practice, regulatory authorities may initiate legal proceedings against us and our business may be harmed.
Risks Relating to our Securities
There is not now, and there may not ever be, an active market for the Company’s Common Stock.
TraQiQ’s stock is trading on the OTC exchange. However, trading activity is very limited. This limited liquidity could present a number of different challenges in the future.
Our stock trading may be extremely sporadic. For example, several days may pass before any shares may be traded. As a result, an investor may find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our Common Stock. Accordingly, investors must assume they may have to bear the economic risk of an investment in our Common Stock for an indefinite period of time. There can be no assurance that a more active market for the Common Stock will develop, or if one should develop, there is no assurance that it will be sustained. This severely limits the liquidity of our Common Stock and would likely have a material adverse effect on the market price of our Common Stock and on our ability to raise additional capital.
We cannot assure you that the Common Stock will become liquid or that it will be listed on a securities exchange.
Until our Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange such as the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market, if ever, we expect our Common Stock to remain eligible for quotation on the OTC Markets. In that venue, however, an investor may find it difficult to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our Common Stock. In addition, if we fail to meet the criteria set forth in SEC regulations, various requirements would be imposed by law on broker-dealers who sell our securities to persons in the public market. Consequently, such regulations may deter broker-dealers from recommending or selling our Common Stock, which may further affect the liquidity of the Common Stock. This would also make it more difficult for us to raise capital.
Our Common Stock is subject to the “penny stock” rules of the SEC and the trading market in the securities is limited, which makes transactions in the stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in the stock.
The SEC has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:
● that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks; and
● the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.
In order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:
● Obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and
● make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.
The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form sets forth:
● the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and
● that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.
Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the “penny stock” rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of common stock and cause a decline in the market value of stock.
Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.
The price of our Common Stock may become volatile, which could lead to losses by investors and costly securities litigation.
The trading price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate in response to factors such as:
● actual or anticipated variations in our operating results;
● announcements of developments by us or our competitors;
● announcements by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments;
● adoption of new accounting standards affecting our Company’s industry;
● additions or departures of key personnel;
● sales of our Common Stock or other securities in the open market; and
● other events or factors, many of which are beyond our control.
The stock market is subject to significant price and volume fluctuations. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been initiated against the company. Litigation initiated against us, whether or not successful, could result in substantial costs and diversion of our management’s attention and resources, which could harm our business and financial condition.
We do not anticipate dividends to be paid on our Common Stock, and investors may lose the entire amount of their investment.
Cash dividends have never been declared or paid on the Common Stock, and we do not anticipate such a declaration or payment for the foreseeable future. We expect to use future earnings, if any, to fund business growth. Therefore, stockholders will not receive any funds absent a sale of their shares. We cannot assure stockholders of a positive return on their investment when they sell their shares, nor can we assure that stockholders will not lose the entire amount of their investment.
If securities analysts do not initiate coverage or continue to cover our Common Stock or publish unfavorable research or reports about our business, this may have a negative impact on the market price of our common stock.
The trading market for the Common Stock will depend on the research and reports that securities analysts publish about our business and the Company. We do not have any control over these analysts. There is no guarantee that securities analysts will cover the Common Stock. If securities analysts do not cover the Common Stock, the lack of research coverage may adversely affect its market price. If we are covered by securities analysts, and our stock is the subject of an unfavorable report, our stock price and trading volume would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts ceases to cover the Company or fails to publish regular reports on the Company, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline.
You may experience dilution of your ownership interests because of the future issuance of additional shares of the Common Stock.
In the future, we may issue our authorized but previously unissued equity securities, resulting in the dilution of the ownership interests of our present stockholders and the purchasers of Common Stock offered hereby. We are currently authorized to issue an aggregate of 310,000,000 shares of capital stock consisting of 300,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.0001, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001, with preferences and rights to be determined by our Board of Directors. We authorized 50,000 shares of our Preferred Stock as Series A and 50,000 shares are issued and outstanding. As of the date of this Report, there are 30,830,237 shares of our Common Stock issued and outstanding and 50,000 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. We may also issue additional shares of our Common Stock or other securities that are convertible into or exercisable for our Common Stock in connection with hiring or retaining employees, future acquisitions, future sales of securities for capital raising purposes, or for other business purposes. The future issuance of any such additional shares of our Common Stock may create downward pressure on the trading price of the Common Stock. There can be no assurance that we will not be required to issue additional shares, warrants or other convertible securities in the future in conjunction with any capital raising efforts, including at a price (or exercise prices) below the price at which shares of the Common Stock will be initially quoted on the OTC Markets.
Pandemics including COVID-19 may adversely affect our business.
The recent unprecedented events related to COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), have had significant health, economic, and market impacts and may have short-term and long-term adverse effects on our business that we cannot predict as the global pandemic continues to evolve. The extent and effectiveness of responses by governments and other organizations also cannot be predicted.
Our ability to access the capital markets and maintain existing operations is unknown during the COVID-19 pandemic. Any such limitation on available financing and how we conduct business with our customers and vendors would adversely affect our business.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
From time to time the Company is a party to various legal or administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business.

Our common stock is not listed on any securities exchange, and effective October 27, 2020 is quoted on the OTC Market under the symbol “TRIQ.” Because our common stock is not listed on a securities exchange and its quotations on OTC are limited and sporadic, there is currently no established public trading market for our common stock.
The following table reflects the high closing sales information for our common stock for each fiscal quarter during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. This information was obtained from OTC and reflects inter-dealer prices without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates and judgments, including those described in greater detail below. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
As used in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation,” except where the context otherwise requires, the term “we,” “us,” “our,” or “the Company,” refers to the business of TraQiQ Inc.
Overview
TraQiQ, Inc. (along with its wholly owned subsidiaries, referred to herein as the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of California on September 9, 2009 as Thunderclap Entertainment, Inc. On July 14, 2017, Thunderclap Entertainment, Inc. changed its name to TraQiQ, Inc. On July 19, 2017, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (“Share Exchange”) with the stockholders of OmniM2M, Inc. (“OmniM2M”) and TraQiQ Solutions, Inc. dba Ci2i Services, Inc. (formerly Ci2i Services, Inc. - amended November 6, 2019) (“Ci2i”) whereby the stockholders of OmniM2M and Ci2i agreed to exchange all of their respective shares, representing 100% ownership in OmniM2M and Ci2i in exchange for 12,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, respectively. The OmniM2M Shareholders and the Ci2i Shareholders have each been issued their respective 12,000,000 shares on a pro rata basis based on their respective holdings in OmniM2M and Ci2i in the Share Exchange Agreement. The Share Exchange was accounted for as a reverse merger whereas Ci2i is considered the accounting acquirer and TraQiQ, Inc. is considered the accounting acquiree. For accounting purposes, the acquisition of OmniM2M is recorded at historical cost in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 805-50-25-2 as this is considered an acquisition of entities under common control as the management of the Company and OmniM2M control the activities of the respective companies. Prior to the merger with Ci2i and acquisition of OmniM2M, the Company was considered a shell company under Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). On December 1, 2017, The Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with Ajay Sikka (“Sikka”), the sole shareholder of Transport IQ, Inc. whereby Sikka agreed to sell all of the shares in TransportIQ, Inc. (“TransportIQ”) in exchange for $18,109, in the form of cancellation of all of the debt of TransportIQ that is owed to the Company. The transaction became effective upon the execution of the Share Exchange Agreement by Sikka and the Company; and Transport IQ, Inc, is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Because TransportIQ was commonly controlled and owned, the transaction was recorded at the historical carrying value of TransportIQ’s assets and liabilities.
Ci2i is an innovative and growth-oriented services company founded in 1998 that develops and deploys intelligent technologies and products in order to meet the demand for sustainable, integrated solutions to contemporary business needs. The primary focus has been in the Analytics and Intelligence segments. The Company is investing significantly in building products in the area of supply chain and last mile delivery.
On May 16, 2019, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with TRAQIQ Solutions Private Limited. Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement with TRAQ Pvt Ltd., the Company acquired 100% of the shares of TRAQ Pvt Ltd. and assumed certain net liabilities in exchange for warrants exercisable over a five-years to purchase 1,329,272 shares of common stock of the Company valued at $268. The warrants will be exercisable as follows: (i) 100,771 warrants immediately upon closing; (ii) 859,951 warrants exercisable one-year after the date of closing; and (iii) 368,550 warrants exercisable two-years after the date of closing. This transaction is being recorded as a business combination under ASC 805.
The warrants that are exercisable in one-year and two-years are conditioned upon TRAQ Pvt Ltd. achieving certain revenue figures and pre-tax profit percentages. TRAQ Pvt Ltd. must achieve target revenue of $1.1 million (US$) and pre-tax profit of 25% (US$). Should TRAQ Pvt Ltd. be unable to achieve these criteria, the warrants will be reduced proportionately.
Effective December 31, 2020, Ci2i acquired the net assets of OmniM2M and TransportIQ, and then dissolved those entities in January 2021. The value of those transactions were for the assumed liabilities of Omni and TransportIQ, and no cash was exchanged.
Going Concern
The Company has an accumulated deficit of $2,504,893 and a working capital deficit of $2,851,721 as of December 31, 2020 compared to a working capital deficit of $2,697,036 as of December 31, 2019. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, which it has not been able to accomplish to date, and/or obtain additional financing from its stockholders and/or other third parties.
Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next fiscal year. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity or debt financing to continue operations, successfully locating and negotiating with other business entities for potential acquisition and /or acquiring new clients to generate revenues.
In May 2019, the Company acquired 100% of the shares of TRAQ Pvt Ltd. and assumed certain net liabilities in exchange for warrants exercisable over a five-years to purchase 1,329,272 shares of common stock of the Company valued at $268. This acquisition will assist the Company in operations and cash flow.
In order to further implement its business plan and satisfy its working capital requirements, the Company will need to raise additional capital. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to raise additional equity or debt financing at acceptable terms, if at all.
There is no assurance that the Company will ever be profitable. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in the notes to our consolidated financial statements. Those material accounting estimates that we believe are the most critical to an investor’s understanding of our financial results and condition are discussed immediately below and are particularly important to the portrayal of our financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by our management to determine the appropriate assumptions to be used in the determination of certain estimates.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. These estimates include, but are not limited to, management’s estimate of provisions required for non-collectible accounts receivable, depreciative lives of our assets, determination of technological feasibility, and valuation allowances of our deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Capitalized Software Costs
In accordance with the relevant FASB accounting guidance regarding the development of software to be sold, leased, or marketed, the Company expenses such costs as they are incurred until technological feasibility has been established, at and after which time these costs are capitalized until the product is available for general release to customers. Once the technological feasibility is established per ASC 985-20, the Company capitalizes costs associated with the acquisition or development of major software for internal and external use in the balance sheet. Costs incurred to enhance the Company’s software products, after general market release of the services using the products, is expensed in the period they are incurred. The Company only capitalizes subsequent additions, modifications or upgrades to internally developed software to the extent that such changes allow the software to perform a task it previously did not perform. The Company expenses software maintenance and training costs as incurred.
Revenue Recognition
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), specifically ASC 606-10-50-12. This standard provides a single set of guidelines for revenue recognition to be used across all industries and requires additional disclosures. The updated guidance introduces a five-step model to achieve its core principal of the entity recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted the updated guidance effective January 1, 2018 using the full retrospective method, however the new standard did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations, as it did not change the manner or timing of recognizing revenue.
Professional Service Revenue
TRAQ Pvt Ltd. generally derives a large part of its revenues from professional and support services, which includes revenue generated from software development projects and associated fees for consulting, implementation, training, and project management provided to customers using their systems. Revenue from arrangements with customers is recognized based on the Company’s satisfaction of distinct performance obligations identified in each agreement, generally at a point in time as discussed in ASC 606. In instances where multiple performance obligations are identified, the Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on relative selling prices of each distinct product or service, and recognizes revenue related to each performance obligation at the points in time that each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company’s performance obligation includes providing customization of software’s, selling of licenses, where the Company typically satisfies its performance obligations prior to the submission of invoices to the customer for such services. The Company’s performance obligation for consulting and technical support is delivered on as the work is being performed, which is satisfied prior to invoicing. The Company generally collects payment within 30 to 60 days of completion of the performance obligation and there are no agency relationships.
Software development arrangements involving significant customization, modification or production are accounted for in accordance with the appropriate technical accounting guidance issued by the FASB using the percentage-of- completion method. The Company recognizes revenue using periodic reported actual hours worked as a percentage of total expected hours required to complete the project arrangement and applies the percentage to the total arrangement fee.
Unbilled revenue represents earnings in excess of billings as at the end of the reporting period. Sales taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and therefore are excluded from revenues in the statements of operations.
TRAQ Pvt Ltd. has deferred the revenue and costs attributable to certain process transition activities with respect to its customers where such activities do not represent the culmination of a separate earnings process. Such revenue and costs are subsequently recognized ratably over the period in which the related services are performed. Further, the deferred costs are limited to the amount of the deferred revenues.
TRAQ Pvt Ltd. has now started offering an integrated solution for supply chain and last mile. This product called “TraQSuite” is now offered in multiple markets as a cloud-based subscription offering. This is a significant improvement from the earlier professional services business.
Software Solution Revenue
Revenue from arrangements with customers is recognized based on the Company’s satisfaction of distinct performance obligations identified in each agreement, generally at a point in time as discussed in ASC 606. In instances where multiple performance obligations are identified, the Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on relative selling prices of each distinct product or service, and recognizes revenue related to each performance obligation at the points in time that each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company’s performance obligation includes providing connectivity to software, generally through a monthly subscription, where the Company typically satisfies its performance obligations prior to the submission of invoices to the customer for such services. The Company’s performance obligation for hardware components that are purchased by the customer in connection with the solution is delivery of the purchased device, which is satisfied prior to invoicing. The Company provides a twelve-month warranty on their hardware. All units deployed by the Company are past the twelve-month period, thus the Company has not accrued for a warranty liability. The Company generally collects payment within 30 to 60 days of completion of the performance obligation and there are no agency relationships.
Costs of Services Provided
Costs of services provided consist of data processing costs, customer support costs including personnel costs to maintain the Company’s proprietary databases, costs to provide customer call center support, hardware and software expense associated with transaction processing systems and exchanges, telecommunication and computer network expense, and occupancy costs associated with facilities where these functions are performed. Depreciation expense is not included in costs of services provided.
Foreign Currency Transactions
The Company accounts for foreign currency transactions in accordance with ASC 830, “Foreign Currency Matters” (“ASC 830”), specifically the guidance in subsection ASC 830-20, “Foreign Currency Transactions”. The U.S. dollar is the functional and reporting currency for the Company and its subsidiaries other than TRAQ Pvt Ltd. whose functional currency is the Indian Rupee. Pursuant to ASC 830, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, with the resulting gains or losses upon settlement reported in foreign exchange gain (loss) in the computation of net income (loss). Gains or losses resulting from translation adjustments are reported under accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
Uncertain Tax Positions
The Company follows ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”. This requires recognition and measurement of uncertain income tax positions using a “more-likely-than-not” approach. Management evaluates their tax positions on an annual basis.
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal tax jurisdiction and various state tax jurisdictions. The federal and state income tax returns of the Company are subject to examination by the IRS and state taxing authorities, generally for three years after they were filed.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC 825, “Financial Instruments,” requires the Company to disclose estimated fair values for its financial instruments. Fair value estimates, methods, and assumptions are set forth below for the Company’s financial instruments: The carrying amount of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, stockholder advances, and short-term financing approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of those instruments. The Company does not utilize derivative instruments.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock
Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) include additional dilution from common stock equivalents, such as convertible notes, preferred stock, stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options and warrants. Common stock equivalents are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share when the Company reports a loss because to do so would be anti-dilutive for periods presented. An uncertain number of shares underlying convertible debt have been excluded from the computation of loss per share because their impact was anti-dilutive.
Related Party Transactions
Parties are considered to be related to the Company if the parties directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, control, are controlled by, or are under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal stockholders of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal stockholders of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal where one-party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. The Company discloses all related party transactions. All transactions shall be recorded at fair value of the goods or services exchanged. Property purchased from a related party is recorded at the cost to the related party and any payment to or on behalf of the related party in excess of the cost is reflected as compensation or distribution to related parties depending on the transaction.
Lease Obligations
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, current portion of operating lease liabilities and operating lease liabilities, less current portion in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. For leases in which the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for operating lease arrangements is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are accounted for separately.

We have re-worked our lease arrangement with the landlord of TRAQ Pvt Ltd and reduced our leased space considerably as of December 31, 2020 and anticipate this to be much less moving forward in 2021.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Based on an evaluation as of the date of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s Certifying Officers conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Certifying Officers concluded that, because of the disclosed material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of the end of the period covered by this report to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms.
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s Certifying Officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based upon the evaluation of the disclosure controls and procedures at the end of the period covered by this report, our Certifying Officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as a result of continuing weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting principally due to the following:
- We have not established adequate financial reporting processes or monitoring activities to ensure adequate financial reporting and to mitigate the risk of management override, specifically because there are few employees and only two officers with management functions and therefore there is lack of segregation of duties.
- An outside consultant assists in the preparation of the annual and quarterly financial statements and partners with us to ensure compliance with US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.
- Outside counsel assists us to review and editing of the annual and quarterly filings and to ensure compliance with SEC disclosure requirements.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, using the criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013 framework) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. As a result of management’s assessment, management has determined that there are material weaknesses due to the lack of segregation of duties and, due to the limited resources based on the size of the Company. Due to the material weaknesses management concluded that as of December 31, 2020, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was ineffective. In order to address and resolve the weaknesses, the Company will endeavor to locate and appoint additional qualified personnel to the board of directors and pertinent officer positions as the Company’s financial means allow. To date, the Company’s limited financial resources have not allowed the Company to hire the additional personnel necessary to address the material weaknesses.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s last fiscal quarter (the Company’s fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
The term “internal control over financial reporting” is defined as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the registrant’s principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the registrant’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:
(a) Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the registrant;
(b) Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the registrant are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the registrant; and
(c) Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the registrant’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS
Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters
The following tables set forth certain information regarding the ownership of our common stock as of March 4, 2021, by:
● each director;
● each person known by us to own beneficially 5% or more of our Common Stock;
● each officer named in the summary compensation table elsewhere in this Current Report on Form 8-K; and
● all directors and executive officers as a group.
The amounts and percentages of common stock beneficially owned are reported on the basis of regulations of the SEC governing the determination of beneficial ownership of securities. Under the rules of the SEC, a person is deemed to be a “beneficial owner” of a security if that person has or shares “voting power,” which includes the power to vote or to direct the voting of such security, or “investment power,” which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any securities of which that person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. Under these rules more than one person may be deemed a beneficial owner of the same securities and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which such person has no economic interest. The percentages of common stock beneficially owned are calculated on the basis of 32,733,193 total common shares issued and outstanding after giving effect to the Share Exchange Agreement, inclusion of stock options, warrants, shares issuable upon the conversion of notes payable and of Series A Preferred Stock, that are convertible into common stock and the percentage of Series A Preferred Stock is based on the 50,000 shares issued and outstanding. Each share of preferred stock is convertible into 85% of the average closing price of the common stock over the last 20 trading days immediately preceding the conversion.
Unless otherwise indicated below, to the best of our knowledge each beneficial owner named in the table has sole voting and sole investment power with respect to all shares beneficially owned, subject to community property laws where applicable.
