Ledger face
Gave money. Got money. Party-wise khata that feels like a diary — while every swipe silently posts as proper debit and credit.
LekhaSutra
One accounting brain. Many faces.
India’s SME operating system for money — a double-entry kernel that powers shopkeeper ledgers, full books, retail, GST, and your CA — without ever splitting the data.
The problem we solve
Merchants should not outgrow their books software
Simple diary apps lose you when you need GST, balance sheets, and a CA. Desktop suites intimidate day-one shopkeepers. LekhaSutra keeps everyone in one funnel — because the ledger was real from the first rupee.
Khatabook-simple and full accounting are different faces — not different ledgers. Product vision
One brain, many faces
Three ways to work. One source of truth.
Your team picks the face that fits the moment. Behind every tap and every voucher sits the same double-entry kernel.
Accounting face
Chart of accounts, vouchers, inventory, GST, payroll, POS, bank reconciliation — the full desk your in-house team expects.
CA face
Audit trail, period lock, GSTR and TDS packs, Tally XML export — so year-end lands in the tools your firm already trusts.
Architecture
The LekhaSutra kernel
We market the stack because it is the product. Modules extend the business — they never fork a second set of books.
- Single posting gate — every rupee hits the journals once
- No shadow ledgers for GST, stock, or retail
- Licensed modules turn capabilities on — books stay intact when a module is off
- Web, desktop, mobile, and bots share one brain
