Claim this listingThe right starting point for a very small Indian shop or trader that mainly needs to track udhaar (credit) and chase payments from a phone. It is free, simple, and vernacular-friendly.
It is a ledger, not full accounting. Businesses needing GST filing, inventory, or formal books will outgrow it and should pair or move to Vyapar, myBillBook, or Zoho Books.

In short
Khatabook is listed under Finance & Accounting, reviewed for Indian buyers. It issues an India GST invoice, so you can claim input credit. FindThatSoftware rates it best for Indian shopkeepers and micro-businesses tracking customer/supplier credit (udhaar); a poor fit for registered businesses that need GST returns and audited books, because Khatabook records customer credit rather than producing statutory accounts.

Khatabook is a mobile-first digital ledger built for Indian MSMEs, shopkeepers, and traders to replace the paper bahi-khata. It lets owners record credit/debit transactions with customers and suppliers, send automated payment reminders over SMS/WhatsApp, generate simple reports, and create bills/QR codes for collections. It is one of the most widely used khata apps in India, aimed at the smallest, often first-time-digital businesses.
