Zoho Books is billed in rupees at ₹749/mo, so there is no forex markup. A registered business reclaims GST, so that is roughly the cost (₹8,988/yr). Without reclaim, add 18% for about ₹884 a month.
Indicative, not a bill. The exchange rate is a single mid-market reference, not a live feed, and GST-registered businesses may reclaim input credit. Confirm current pricing on the vendor site.
