In the run up to the GST roll out, Tally conducted more than 7,000 events and trainings including daily webinars that see hundreds of people attend on a daily basis.

"Our awareness programmes are centred on how GST is going to impact businesses. More than 13 million businesses will come under GST and so far, the migration is around eight to nine million. We are helping the small business owners to register and do business under the new tax regime”, he said.

Tally Solutions in collaboration with Acer has rolled out the Biz Guru plug and play solutions to bring those small businesses under GST which had no initiation to IT. This solution is designed for first time users and is priced in the bracket of Rs 35,000-55,000.  Tally Solutions expects significant uptake from the small & medium businesses for this new solution.

Tally Solutions is working with a 360 degree plan to help businesses sail through the first return filing season and pave the way for a GST compliant India. Since the roll out of GST, the company has seen businesses rush to get ready and most of them have many doubts in their mind related to formats of invoices and how to account for them in their books. The company has been focusing on educating businesses to get GST ready and with returns coming in, the focus is now on helping people get prepared for filing.

Tally.ERP 9 Release 6 helps the user generate accurate GST returns at the click of a button. The solution is easy to use and simple to implement. Designed with a user friendly interface and simplified statutory compliance, the product will empower businesses to be GST compliant from day one.
