People searching for billing software price usually want two answers: what VelBooks costs, and what typical Indian billing and inventory apps cost. This post covers both, with published figures as of Oct 2026. For the exact VelBooks plans and what is included, use the pricing page - that page is the source of truth for our product.
VelBooks price (what you pay)
Introductory monthly plans are Basic ₹299, Gold ₹499 and Elite ₹799, each + 18% GST. Every plan includes GST billing, inventory with barcode, GSTR filing and return management, accounts, order management and the online store. There is a 30-day free trial of the full app. The VelBooks web app runs in the browser and needs an internet connection; the separate VelBooks POS add-on for counter billing runs on Android and works offline.
So the cost of VelBooks for one year is roughly ₹3,588 to ₹9,588 + GST before any discount or change in list price. Always confirm on pricing before you buy.
