Unlimited companies, one login
Run every firm you own — or every client you serve — from a single account, with complete data isolation enforced at the database level.
Zoho Books alternative
Cloud accounting, priced for many companies.
Zoho Books is a capable cloud ledger. But it prices per organisation, keeps deeper inventory behind add-ons, and stops short of the full Indian compliance stack. Finkitaabh assumes you run more than one business — or your clients do.

Where Zoho Books starts to pinch
If you run a single, simple company, Zoho Books does the job. The pressure appears when reality gets more Indian: a second firm under the same promoter, a distributor arm that needs batch and expiry tracking, or a CA practice where every new client is another billable organisation on the subscription.
Finkitaabh is multi-tenant from the database up. Companies are isolated by PostgreSQL row-level security rather than by separate subscriptions, so adding one is an operation, not a purchase. Pharma-grade batch and expiry tracking with FEFO consumption is part of inventory, not a paid tier.
The compliance surface is deeper too: GSTR-9 alongside GSTR-1 and 3B, E-Way Bill Part-A created automatically for consignments above ₹50,000 with validity and multi-leg tracking, per-transaction ITC-eligibility control so section 17(5) blocked credits are expensed rather than wrongly claimed, and statutory document titles chosen automatically — Tax Invoice, Bill of Supply, or a plain commercial invoice — based on your registration and the taxability of each line.
Built for the Indian edge cases
The things a global product tends to treat as regional detail.
📦
Batch & expiry in the box
Batch numbers, expiry dates and first-expiry-first-out consumption, with near-expiry and expired-stock alerts. No separate inventory plan.
🚚
E-Way Bill tracking
Part A auto-created above ₹50,000, with validity countdown, extensions and multi-leg movement tracking on a dashboard that warns you before a bill lapses.
📄
Correct statutory titles
Tax Invoice vs Bill of Supply vs commercial invoice picked automatically per registration status, scheme and line taxability — including Rule 46A mixed supplies.
🧾
ITC eligibility control
Mark per transaction whether credit is available. Non-creditable GST is expensed to the P&L or capitalised into the asset instead of inflating your claim.
🧑💼
CA-firm workflows
Client engagements with confidential fee contracts, government-fee disbursements booked as recoverable, and Rule 33 compliant fee-plus-reimbursement invoices.
Finkitaabh vs Zoho Books
Both are cloud-native. The difference is depth on Indian compliance and how companies are priced.

Frequently asked questions
I have three companies. Do I pay three times?
No. Finkitaabh is multi-tenant — several companies run under one login with complete isolation between them, enforced by PostgreSQL row-level security. Plans differ in how many companies and users they include rather than charging a fresh subscription per organisation.
Is inventory a separate add-on?
No. Real-time stock with weighted-average valuation, batch and expiry tracking with FEFO, low-stock and near-expiry alerts, bulk Excel import and bulk price updates are part of the product.
Can I file GSTR-9 as well?
Yes. GSTR-1, GSTR-3B and the GSTR-9 annual return are all generated from your posted books, with the annual return consolidating the full year.
Does it handle reverse charge and the composition scheme?
Yes — RCM is handled automatically for supplier-liable GST, and the composition scheme is supported, including choosing the correct document title for composition dealers.
