Everything below is deliberate, and each one has a reason. We would rather you know before you install than find out at your counter.
If any of these describes your business, this product is not the right fit and we will say so rather than sell it to you.
E-invoicing is mandatory in India above ₹5 crore annual turnover. This product does not generate an IRN or the signed QR code, so it cannot be your billing software once you cross that line.
Why: It means registering with the government portal and tracking a schema on the government's timetable. We would rather say plainly that we serve smaller shops than half-support it.
Below ₹5 crore this changes nothing about your bills — they are fully valid GST tax invoices.
We do not sell this to chemists.
Why: A pharmacy sits under a statutory regime — Drug Licence conditions, schedule-wise records, prescription handling — that we do not meet. Where a trade needs compliance we cannot deliver, we stop rather than build our way in.
We do not sell this to jewellery shops.
Why: No HUID tracking, no karat/purity records, no old-gold exchange, no scale integration — and stock is counted in pieces, not weight. A jeweller needs all of it.
We do not generate e-way bills for goods in transit (required for a consignment over ₹50,000).
Why: It is a separate government portal document with its own login, and its API schema changes on the government's timetable, not ours.
Your invoice stays compliant without it — the e-way bill is a different document, raised separately.
Purchases where YOU owe the GST instead of your supplier are not handled, and we do not raise the self-invoice those need.
Why: It is an uncommon case for a counter shop and getting it half-right on a tax return is worse than not offering it.
Your accountant can handle these outside the product.
We do not file your returns and do not reconcile your purchases against GSTR-2B for input tax credit.
Why: Filing is your accountant's job and their software already does it; we give them clean data instead of competing.
You can export a GST summary (CSV) and a Tally XML for your accountant whenever they ask.
There is no bill of materials and no production entry, so a manufactured item's cost is not built up from raw materials, labour and overhead.
Why: That is a different subsystem to the retail model this product is built on, and we will not pretend otherwise.
A factory's GST invoices out of this product are completely valid. Only the costing is missing.
You cannot photograph a paper bill or a supplier's invoice and have it entered for you.
Why: It needs a vision model we do not have on the account, and a button that cannot work is worse than an absent one.
Entering a bill by typing it in words, or by speaking it, needs either an internet key (free, about two minutes to get) or a local AI engine installed on the computer.
Why: Reading ordinary language is the one part that genuinely needs a model. Everything else is plain arithmetic done on this computer.
⭐ Picking items from a list always works, with no key, no internet and no setup — and it is the fastest way to bill at a busy counter anyway.
There is no cloud account and no syncing between machines, so two counters do not share one set of books live.
Why: It is what keeps your data yours and the product free. Your shop's local data stays on this computer by default. Activation sends the details needed to register the product, such as your shop name, email and phone. If you choose an online AI option, the information needed for that request is sent to the AI provider you set up.
You can keep a daily copy in a cloud folder or on another drive, and restore onto a new computer from it.
From 1 February 2026 notified tobacco goods — pan masala, cigarettes and similar — are taxed on the printed MRP even when you sell them at a discount. We do not compute that.
Why: It applies to specific notified goods only, and we would rather you hear it from us than from a notice.
If you sell these and give discounts on them, ask your accountant how to report it.
We do not check that your HSN codes have the number of digits your turnover requires, we do not warn you about the deadline for reporting a credit note, and we do not verify that a customer's GSTIN is real.
Why: Each is a rule with exceptions, and a wrong warning trains people to ignore the right ones.
