Inventory · linked to your books

What is inventory management software?

Inventory management software tracks the stock your business holds — how much you have, what it's worth, and how it moves in and out — so you can reorder on time, price correctly, and close your books with accurate stock. In India there's a GST layer on top: every item needs its HSN and rate, and the cost of goods has to post when you sell.

TatvaBooks handles inventory inside your accounting. Bill an item and stock, cost of goods and the GST invoice all move together — there's no separate stock register drifting away from your ledgers.

What it does

Stock that moves with your invoices

Bill a tracked item and stock comes down and cost of goods posts in the same entry — no separate stock register to reconcile at month-end.

FIFO or weighted-average valuation

Value inventory on a perpetual basis, the way your CA expects, so margins and closing stock are always right.

Multiple locations & godowns

Track stock by warehouse or shop with per-location quantities and valuation — know what's where and what it's worth.

HSN on every item

Each item carries its HSN and GST rate, so every invoice is GST-correct without a lookup — feeds straight into your returns.

Manufacturing (BOM + AS-2)

Define a bill of materials, post production, and value raw material, WIP and finished goods on an AS-2 periodic basis, conversion costs pooled in.

Purchases & payables

Record purchase vouchers with bill attachments; stock goes up and your payables and GSTR-2B reconciliation stay in step.

Stock and GST, never maintained twice

The reason inventory belongs inside accounting is simple: the two are the same data. Billing a tracked item on TatvaBooks brings stock down, posts cost of goods, and raises a GST-correct invoice with the item's HSN — one entry, not three. Purchases push stock up and feed your GSTR-2B reconciliation. Your closing stock and your margins are right whenever you look.

From a single shop to a factory

A single-location retailer tracks items with FIFO or weighted-average valuation. A distributor tracks stock across multiple godowns. A manufacturer defines a bill of materials and values raw material, WIP and finished goods on an AS-2 periodic basis. Same product, scaling with you — without an ERP price tag.

What it costs

Inventory with cost of goods is included from the Business plan at ₹599/month. Multi-location stock and manufacturing (BOM + AS-2) come on the Growth plan at ₹1,099/month — alongside your full accounting, GST and payroll, not as a separate inventory subscription.

Frequently asked questions

What is inventory management software?
Inventory management software tracks the stock your business holds — quantities, value, and movement in and out — so you always know what you have, what it's worth, and when to reorder. In India it also has to keep GST in step: each item's HSN and rate, and the cost of goods that posts when you sell. TatvaBooks does inventory inside your accounting, so stock and books never drift apart.
Does inventory link to GST invoicing and accounting?
Yes — that's the whole idea. Billing a tracked item brings stock down, posts cost of goods, and raises a GST-correct invoice with the item's HSN, all in one entry. Purchases push stock up and feed your GSTR-2B reconciliation. Nothing is maintained twice.
Which valuation methods are supported?
FIFO and weighted-average, on a perpetual basis, so your closing stock and margins are accurate at any point — not just after a year-end stock-take. Manufacturers get AS-2 periodic valuation across raw material, WIP and finished goods.
Can it handle multiple warehouses or shops?
Yes. Track stock across multiple locations or godowns with per-location quantities and valuation, so a multi-branch retailer or a distributor always knows what's sitting where.
Is inventory included in the price or an add-on?
Inventory is included from the Business plan (₹599/month) — FIFO/weighted-average with cost of goods. Multi-location stock and manufacturing (BOM + AS-2) come on the Growth plan (₹1,099/month). It's part of the product, not a separate inventory subscription.
