Bank reconciliation

Bank reconciliation without the line-by-line grind.

Import your statement, let matching do the heavy lifting, and post only what actually needs a decision — cheques not yet presented, deposits not yet credited, the odd bank charge.

What is bank reconciliation software?

Bank reconciliation software matches the transactions in your accounting books against your actual bank statement, so your cash-book balance and your bank's passbook balance tie out. Done by hand, it's a monthly line-by-line comparison; software matches the obvious pairs automatically and leaves you only the genuine differences — outstanding cheques, deposits in transit, bank charges you hadn't recorded.

How it works in TatvaBooks

Import your bank statement as a CSV, and TatvaBooks matches it against the receipts and payments already in your books. Unmatched entries are flagged so you can post them — a bank charge, an unrecorded transfer, a cheque that's since cleared — and your books and your bank agree. The full mechanics, including the standard BRS format, are in our bank reconciliation statement guide.

Frequently asked questions

What is bank reconciliation software?
Bank reconciliation software matches the transactions in your books against your bank statement, so you catch what's outstanding (cheques issued but not presented, deposits not yet credited) and what your books simply missed. Manually it's a line-by-line comparison every month; software matches most transactions automatically and surfaces only what genuinely needs a look.
How does TatvaBooks reconcile bank statements?
Import your bank statement (CSV) and TatvaBooks matches it against your recorded receipts and payments, flags unmatched entries, and lets you post the difference — so your cash-book balance and your bank's passbook balance tie out. See the mechanics in our bank reconciliation statement (BRS) guide.
Does it support multiple bank accounts?
Yes — reconcile each bank account you hold separately, with its own statement import and matching, all rolling up into the same set of books.
Is bank reconciliation free?
Bank statement import and matching is available from Solo (₹0, free) — reconciliation isn't gated behind a paid plan.
What's the difference between bank reconciliation and GST reconciliation?
Bank reconciliation matches your books against your bank statement (cash position). GST reconciliation matches your purchases against GSTR-2B (input tax credit). They're separate processes — TatvaBooks handles both. See our GST reconciliation software page for the GST side.
