What the market charges

Cloud GST accounting is usually billed monthly or yearly. As a rough guide for 2026: Nidhi Books is from ₹399/month (first app, unlimited users); Zoho Books paid plans start around ₹899/month plus GST with per-tier user limits; Vyapar is roughly ₹3,399/year and up, licensed per device.

Desktop software is priced differently — TallyPrime is a one-time license (Silver ₹22,500, Gold ₹67,500, plus GST) with an annual TSS renewal, rather than a monthly subscription. Spread over a few years that can still work out higher than a low monthly cloud plan, especially once you need more than one user.

For a clear monthly number with no upfront cost and unlimited users, Nidhi Books is ₹399/month for your first app and ₹99/month for each additional app or add-on (prices exclude GST, added per invoice).
