Stock that matches your books

Every purchase entry credits the stock ledger, and every tax invoice debits it. No end-of-month manual tallying or mismatched physical inventory.

FIFO and weighted-average costing

Legally compliant Indian accounting standards ensure your cost of goods sold (COGS) and profit margins are calculated accurately.

Multi-branch & godown visibility

Track inventory across multiple godowns, shops, and warehouses with verified delivery challans for seamless inter-branch stock movement.

REAL-TIME LEDGER POSTING

Automated stock deduction on invoice generation

When an invoice or sales return is issued, stock registers adjust in real time across the selected godown. Prevent stock-outs, avoid double-commitments, and maintain an immutable audit trail.

  • Instant stock deductions on authorized tax invoices
  • Automated stock restocking on debit/credit notes
  • Per-item minimum reorder thresholds with instant warning flags
  • Lock stock quantities to avoid selling items already staged for shipping
