From ₹399/mo (first app; +₹99/mo per add-on, GST extra), unlimited users.

What is the best billing software for a hardware store?
The best billing software for a hardware or building-material store bills fast at the counter, keeps GST HSN and tax correct across a huge item list, and tells you what to reorder before it runs out. 399Apps does the GST billing and accounts with Nidhi Books and the barcode stock, reorder alerts and purchase orders with Nidhi Inventory.
Shops look for one when the item list grows past what a diary or spreadsheet can hold, when fast-moving items (fasteners, cement, PVC, paint) keep going out of stock, or when party-wise credit becomes hard to track.
Hardware & building-material store pains → what 399Apps actually does
Barcode stock, reorder alerts, HSN-correct GST and party ledgers are all real capabilities — nothing below is invented.
| What slows you down | What 399Apps does |
|---|---|
| Thousands of small SKUs to bill | Nidhi Inventory holds each item with a barcode, so counter billing is a scan instead of a search through a long list. |
| Many HSN codes and GST rates | Nidhi Books stores HSN and the correct rate per item, so every line carries the right CGST/SGST or IGST automatically. |
| Fast-movers keep running out | Reorder-level alerts in Nidhi Inventory flag items to buy before they hit zero, so cement, fasteners and paint stay in stock. |
| Buying from many suppliers | Purchase orders and goods receipts match what you ordered to what arrived and to the vendor bill before you pay. |
| Contractors and dealers buy on credit | Party ledgers and AR Aging in Nidhi Books show exactly who owes what and for how long. |
| Stock at shop and godown | Nidhi Inventory tracks stock per location with transfers, so counter and godown counts stay in sync. |
