GST Billing Software in India, By City

Every Indian city has its own trade — Surat sells fabric, Ludhiana ships hosiery, Indore distributes FMCG. 399Apps gives them all the same thing: GST-ready billing, inventory and accounting on the cloud for a flat ₹399/month, with unlimited users. Pick your city to see how it fits your business.

Short answer

399Apps is cloud GST billing software for Indian small businesses, priced at a flat ₹399/month per app with unlimited user logins. Nidhi Books issues GST invoices, IRN e-invoices and e-way bills, tracks party-wise outstanding and item-wise stock, and exports GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B — from any browser, in every state, cloud or self-hosted.

Before you switch

The three things shop owners ask before changing billing software

These are the objections that come up again and again in Indian small-business forums when someone moves off a paper bill book, Excel or an old desktop package. Honest answers, with the caveats.

"Which features are locked behind a higher plan?"

The common trap with cheap billing apps is that the essentials sit one tier up — e-invoicing, multi-user access or desktop sync. On 399Apps the billing essentials are on the ₹399/month entry plan for Nidhi Books: IRN e-invoicing with QR code, e-way bills, GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B export, and unlimited user logins. For comparison, myBillBook's ₹291/month plan excludes e-invoicing (that is its ₹570/month Enterprise plan), and Vyapar is licensed per device — a second counter is a second subscription. Prices exclude GST.

Are there hidden charges on top of ₹399? →

"My counter staff aren't accountants — will they actually use it?"

The usual failure is not the software being weak, it is being abandoned a few weeks in because raising one bill takes too many steps. Nidhi Books gives the counter a billing screen rather than an accounting one — scan or pick an item, set quantity, print the GST bill — with no ledgers or journal entries in the way. Role-based logins mean a helper sees billing only, not your accounts or margins, and it runs in any browser or phone so there is no one PC to sit at.

Is 399Apps easy for non-technical staff? →

"Do I lose my history if I move off TallyPrime or Vyapar?"

No, but be realistic about the effort. You export parties, your item and stock list, ledgers and opening balances from TallyPrime, Vyapar or Excel and import them, with GSTIN, tax rates and HSN/SAC codes carried across so the first invoice is compliant. There is no one-click pull from a Tally file, so pick a clean cut-over date, keep the old software as a read-only backup, and run both for one filing cycle before retiring it.

Who this fits — and who it doesn't

A good fit

If you run a retail shop, wholesale or trading business, or a service firm anywhere in India on a paper bill book, an Excel sheet or a single-PC desktop package, 399Apps fits. GST billing, stock and outstanding move to the cloud, your whole team and your CA bill from any device, and the price stays flat at ₹399/month per app as you add staff.

Not a fit

If you need factory-floor manufacturing costing — bill of materials, multi-stage work-in-progress, machine-wise costing — or statutory payroll with PF, ESI and TDS filings, 399Apps does not cover that today. TallyPrime with add-ons, Marg ERP or an SAP Business One implementation is the honest recommendation. If you bill entirely offline with no internet at the counter, look at the self-hosted edition rather than the cloud one.

FAQ

GST Billing Software — FAQs

What is the best GST billing software for small business in India? +
The best fit depends on your trade — a retailer needs fast POS invoicing, a wholesaler needs bulk order billing and godown stock, a service business needs milestone billing. 399Apps covers all of these in one GST-ready system for a flat ₹399/month with unlimited users, cloud or self-hosted.
How much does billing software cost in India? +
399Apps is a flat ₹399/month per app — the same price across India, with no per-user licence. Desktop tools like Tally cost ₹22,500 upfront plus annual renewals; 399Apps has no licence fee and no installation.
Does 399Apps billing software support e-invoicing and e-way bills? +
Yes. 399Apps generates IRN e-invoices directly from the billing screen for businesses above the e-invoicing threshold, and creates e-way bills for goods consignments — no third-party portal login needed for day-to-day operations.
Can I use 399Apps billing software offline or without internet? +
399Apps is cloud-first and requires internet for real-time sync, but a progressive web app cache lets you view recent data when connectivity drops. For fully offline use, the self-hosted edition can run on a local server your team accesses over LAN even without internet.
Is 399Apps billing software available in my city? +
399Apps works across India — cloud hosting is in an Indian data region and the software handles every state's GST rules, state codes and local tax configurations. Find your city in the directory above for a tailored overview.
I have been burned before — which features are locked behind a higher plan on 399Apps? +
None of the billing essentials. IRN e-invoicing with QR code, e-way bill generation, GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B export and unlimited user logins are all on the ₹399/month entry plan for Nidhi Books, not a premium tier. This is the usual trap elsewhere: myBillBook's ₹291/month plan does not include e-invoicing — that needs its ₹570/month Enterprise plan — and Vyapar is licensed per device, so a second billing counter means a second subscription. Prices exclude GST.
My billing counter is run by a helper, not an accountant — will they actually use this or will it be abandoned in a month? +
Nidhi Books puts the helper on a billing screen, not an accounting one: scan or pick an item, set quantity, print the GST bill. There are no ledgers or journal entries in their way, and role-based logins mean a counter helper sees billing only — not your accounts or profit margins. It runs in any browser or phone, so there is no single PC to sit at. Most counters are billing the same day rather than after days of training.
If I switch from Tally or Vyapar, do I lose the history I already have? +
No. You export your parties, item and stock list, ledgers and opening balances from Tally, Vyapar or Excel and import them into 399Apps, with GSTIN, tax rates and HSN/SAC codes carried across so your first invoice is compliant. There is no one-click pull from a Tally file, so plan on a clean cut-over date. Keep the old software as a read-only backup and run both for one filing cycle before you retire it.
