Why CA firms trust it with their clients’ books

  • Built for Indian CA firms

    GSTR-2B against a purchase register, the way the work is actually done. Not a generic ledger tool with GST bolted on.

  • Tally stays the system of record

    We read from it and write back to it. Your books live where they have always lived, and nothing here replaces them.

  • Nothing posts without approval

    An uncertain entry goes to a review queue, never to a guess. Suspense stays empty because we refuse to fill it.

The monthly grind

Six steps. Every client.
Every month.

None of it is difficult. All of it is slow, and none of it is the work a CA trained to do.

Understand, not just find

Don’t just find the mismatch.
Understand it.

A difference of ₹144 takes a second to spot. Knowing it is freight on a separate voucher takes someone opening two documents. That second part is the job.

Needs review

GST difference

₹144

Why
Freight of ₹800 was booked on a separate voucher, so the books carry ₹144 of tax on it in a different entry from the invoice.
Evidence

Suggested action
Split the voucher so freight sits against the same invoice.

Everyone stops at the first one. The other three are the month.

The promise

No entry goes
to suspense.

A ledger is proposed only when the client’s own posting history supports it. When it doesn’t, the entry goes to a review queue instead of being guessed at — because a guess is exactly how something ends up in suspense.

So the queue shrinks on its own. Every decision a partner makes is one the engine does not have to ask about again.

Control

Your books remain
the source of truth.

Nothing is posted that a person has not seen. Nothing uncertain is posted at all. Tally is where the books live, before and after — we read from it and write back to it, and we never become the record.

  • Human approval before posting
  • Every decision keeps its reasoning
  • Works with your existing workflow
  • Deterministic matching, not a model
