Yes, genuinely free, with no time limit, for businesses with annual turnover under ₹25 lakh. It includes GST invoicing, e-invoicing, manual bank reconciliation, and basic reporting, limited to 1 user plus 1 accountant login and 1,000 transactions/year.
Once you cross the ₹25 lakh turnover threshold, need more than one user, need inventory management, or want automated bank feeds instead of manual reconciliation.
Yes. Zoho is a registered GST Suvidha Provider (GSP), and Zoho Books supports GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B filing directly from the software, along with e-invoicing and e-way bill generation on eligible plans.
If you operate in more than one state, you'll need Professional (2 GSTINs) or Premium (3 GSTINs). The Free and Standard plans support only a single GSTIN.
Zoho Books Professional on annual billing typically costs meaningfully less than TallyPrime Gold over a 3-year period, while adding cloud access, inventory, and project billing that Tally doesn't include natively. Migration from Tally to Zoho Books is increasingly common among businesses moving to cloud accounting, though migration itself takes planning, since chart-of-accounts mapping and historical data transfer aren't automatic.
- Additional users: roughly ₹150–180/user/month beyond what's included
- SMS/WhatsApp payment reminders require a separate Zoho Flow + SMS gateway integration
- Data migration from Tally or another system, if not done in-house
Yes, you can upgrade or downgrade as your business needs change. Many businesses start on a lower tier while learning the platform and move up once they hit specific limits like inventory or multi-GSTIN needs.
Yes, but availability depends on your plan — multi-currency transactions per contact are available only on Elite and Ultimate. Lower plans support a single base currency.
Yes. The Free plan is commonly used by freelancers and solo consultants for GST-compliant invoicing and basic expense tracking, with Standard as the next step once you need automated bank feeds or more users.
No, payroll is a separate subscription (Zoho Payroll), though it integrates with Zoho Books for salary journal entries, PF/ESI tracking, and TDS on salary.
Yes, typically a 14-day trial of a paid plan (Premium by default), with no credit card required. You can switch tiers during the trial before deciding.
