GST ready software Tally.ERP 9 Release 6 downloaded more than 1.5 million times in 20 days
It has been a fortnight since one of the country’s most significant economic reform came into effect. GST has affected all our lives but the impact has been felt most by business people. A new tax structure, new rates, codes, formats and the dire need to adopt technology to comply have been concerning many of them. On the other hand, there are also business owners who have made the transition without any worry and started operations with GST from Day 1 with ease.
Swami Yatishwaranand from Divya Jyoti Jagriti Foundation (Delhi) is one of them. “We have been using Tally for the last decade but with GST coming in we were a little worried about how we will manage the change. Company representatives spent time with us before the launch and educated us on the subject. This was very helpful and of course moving to the new product was extremely easy.” Atif Aslam from Khaza Gareeb Nawaz Traders (Burdwan) who has recently purchased a new license echoed this sentiment. “We moved to the software keeping GST in mind and the experience has been quite good so far with adequate support provided. We were stressing on how we will start issuing invoices from Day 1 but with the simplicity of the software we were able to migrate easily on our own and there was no disruption in business continuity.” Monish Desai, N Desai Papers Pvt Ltd (Ahmedabad) added, “There hasn’t been any stress here because we knew that with Tally we are in safe hands. GST billing from Day 1 was a joy and whatever issues we have faced, Tally partners have been very responsive in attending to them. Jethendra, SR Sales Corporation (Bengaluru) also had similar views. “The invoicing has been very simple but that is what we have come to expect of the software over the years. We were able to move to the new release ourselves by simply downloading and installing the software from the website. Overall, we are very satisfied.”
Tejas Goenka, Executive Director, Tally Solutions, said “As we launched Tally.ERP 9 Release 6, our GST ready product into the market on the 25th of June, we have since then focused our efforts on 3 major action plans to get our customers GST ready a simple, self-start guide on our website which most people have used, daily webinars that allow people to ask their questions and get real time answers to their questions, and lastly we have already conducted more than 1600 GST camps and Kendras across key business locations in over 123 cities to make the movement to GST simple for our customers – all these will continue through the weeks to ensure that we help clarify customer doubts and help customers transition smoothly to GST.”
The company along with its 20000+ strong partner network has already conducted more than 5000 GST events across the country. It has tied up with associations like CAIT, FAIDA, ASSOCHAM, CII and principal companies for the same and reached out to more than 2 lakh businesses already.
