GST-native books, on web, desktop and mobile
Invoicing, GST & TDS, banking, inventory, and payroll - one system that keeps your entire book of accounts accurate, compliant, and always in sync.
Everything a GST-compliant book of accounts needs
Built for India, GST-first
GST, TDS, HSN/SAC and place-of-supply rules are designed in from day one - not bolted on afterwards.
One platform, every device
A full web app, a packaged Mac & Windows desktop app, and a native mobile app that does real work.
Real double-entry books
Behind every simple screen: balanced journals, locked periods, trial balance, and year-end close.
Tally-style fast entry
Keyboard-first, field-to-field data entry - raise invoices and bills without touching the mouse.
Multi-company & CA-ready
Run several businesses under one login, or manage dozens of client books from one dashboard.
Secure & compliant
Role-based access, an immutable audit trail, and DPDP-ready data export and erasure.
Most accounting tools force a trade-off. Khaata doesn't.
Billing apps are quick to open but stop short of real accounting. Legacy desktop software is powerful, but keeps your books on one Windows machine. Global cloud suites are capable, but built for a different market first, with India's GST and TDS rules added on afterwards. Khaata is built to end that trade-off.
Tally speed meets the cloud
A genuine keyboard-first entry layer - Enter to advance field-to-field and line-to-line, Ctrl/Cmd+Enter to save, Ctrl/Cmd+D to duplicate a line - reachable from any device. Most cloud apps make you click through every field.
Simple on top, real accounting underneath
As quick as a billing app, but every transaction posts to a true double-entry ledger with trial balance, period locking, and a proper year-end close to Retained Earnings.
GST and TDS built into the core
GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, e-invoicing (IRN) and e-way bills - plus automatic TDS withholding with Form 16A and Form 26Q. Depth most SMB apps skip entirely.
One system across desk, counter, and field
A full web app, a packaged Mac & Windows desktop app with direct thermal receipt printing, and a native mobile app that raises invoices, reconciles bank, and runs payroll - not a read-only companion.
Built for CA practices, not just single businesses
An attention-sorted multi-client dashboard, cross-client bulk actions, reusable staff permission templates, and global search across every client record.
Retail and B2B from one catalog
Thermal 80mm receipts for the counter and A4 GST tax invoices for formal billing - same items, same stock, same books.
Your data, your control
Multiple companies under one login, an immutable audit trail, and DPDP-ready one-click data export and erasure. No lock-in.
Built for the way Indian books actually get kept
CA & accounting practices
Run every client's books from a single attention-sorted dashboard, act across clients in bulk, and give staff exactly the access they need.
Service businesses & agencies
Professional GST invoices, recurring billing, automatic TDS handling, and multi-currency for overseas clients - all in one place.
Accountants moving off Tally
Keep the keyboard speed and double-entry rigor you rely on, and gain the cloud, a native mobile app, and end-to-end GST automation.
Growing SMBs beyond Excel or a billing app
Real books, inventory valuation, and financial reports - without Tally's learning curve or a Windows-only desktop.
Retail + wholesale hybrids
Thermal receipts at the counter and A4 GST invoices for B2B, drawn from the same catalog and stock.
Multi-company owners
Operate several businesses under one login and switch between them instantly.
