For every kind of shop
Billing Software for Retail Shops, Whatever You Sell
A shop's billing software has three jobs: make the bill fast at the counter, keep the stock right after every sale, and remember who owes you money.

What does retail billing software do?
VyapRise is retail billing software that does all three in the browser on your counter PC, laptop, tablet or phone: GST bills or bills of supply with HSN and a UPI QR to scan, barcode scanning, stock that drops with every sale, low-stock alerts and khata for regular customers.
The Free plan covers 10 sales invoices a month for the owner alone; Pro, at ₹1,499 per year, adds the full-screen POS counter, purchase bills, staff logins and more than one godown, and every new company can try Pro free for 7 days. A medical store, a garment shop and a hardware shop do not need the same things, so below is a page for each trade.
Retail shops: grocery, clothing, phones and more

How to choose billing software for your shop
Five checks that apply to any shop billing software, VyapRise included.
- 01
Count your bills
A shop that makes a few bills a week fits Free's 10 invoices a month. A counter that bills every walk-in customer passes that in a day or two and needs unlimited invoices, which is Pro.
- 02
Decide: counter screen or invoice
Fast walk-in sales want a POS screen with a scan bar, product tiles, split payment and a shift close. A shop that bills fewer, larger orders to known buyers works well from the sales invoice.
- 03
List what your trade tracks
Expiry dates for medicines, cosmetics and fertiliser; IMEI or serial numbers for phones and electronics; size and colour for clothes and footwear; weight for jewellery and loose goods. Open your trade's page above to see how VyapRise handles each; most of these are Pro.
- 04
Try it at your own counter
Use the 7-day Pro trial with your own scanner, printer and a real day's bills before you pay anything. Ask what happens when the internet drops: VyapRise runs in the browser and needs a connection.
- 05
Add up the full cost
Per-user, per-counter or per-device fees grow with the shop. VyapRise Pro is one price per company, ₹1,499 per year, with no per-user charge.
Is VyapRise right for your shop?
An honest answer saves you a wasted setup.
A good fit if you
- Run a shop with a PC, laptop, tablet or phone and an internet connection
- Want GST bills, stock and khata in one place instead of a bill book and a notebook
- Sell goods your trade tracks by batch, IMEI, size and colour, or weight
- Need cashier logins and more than one counter on Pro without paying per user
- Want GST reports ready for your CA at month end (Pro)
Not a fit yet if you
Need an offline mode or an app from the Play Store: VyapRise runs in the browser and needs internet; it can sit on your home screen like an app, but it still needs a connection. It does not file GST returns: it prepares and checks the figures, and you or your CA file on the portal. Barcodes are read with a USB or Bluetooth scanner, not the phone camera, and VyapRise does not connect to a weighing scale (it can read the barcode label a scale prints).
Common questions
Which billing software is right for a small retail shop?
One that fits how you sell. Count how many bills you make, decide whether you need a fast counter screen, and list what your trade tracks: expiry dates, IMEI numbers, sizes and colours, or weight. VyapRise covers each of these, with a page for every trade. A shop with a few bills a week can stay on the Free plan; a counter that bills every walk-in customer needs Pro at ₹1,499 per year, and every new company can try Pro free for 7 days.
Is there free billing software for shops?
Yes. The VyapRise Free plan is free forever for the owner alone: up to 10 sales invoices a month, 30 items and 10 customers, GST bills with a UPI QR, barcode scanning on the invoice, stock in one warehouse with low-stock alerts, khata with the current month's customer ledger, and WhatsApp share. The POS counter, purchase bills, staff users, more than one godown and reports beyond the current month are part of Pro.
Can I bill from a mobile phone? Is there an app?
VyapRise runs in the browser on a PC, laptop, tablet or phone, and you can add it to the home screen like an app. There is no VyapRise app on the Play Store and no offline mode: billing needs an internet connection, so keep a mobile hotspot as backup.
Does it work with my barcode scanner and printer?
Any USB or Bluetooth barcode scanner that types like a keyboard works, which is most of them; phone-camera scanning is not available. Invoices print or download as PDF. On Pro, the POS prints receipts on 80 mm or 58 mm thermal paper, and barcode labels print on A4 sheets or 50×25 and 38×25 mm rolls, all through the browser's print; VyapRise has no printer-specific driver.
Can I keep khata (udhaar) for regular customers?
Yes. Pick the customer, put the bill on credit and record what they pay on the invoice. A credit limit per customer warns before a bill crosses it, or asks for the owner's approval if you switch that on. On Free the customer ledger shows the current month; on Pro you record receipts against bills, see the ledger for any period, share statements as PDF and put bills on khata at the POS counter.
Can more than one person bill at the same time?
On Pro, yes. Add staff users with roles such as Cashier or Store Keeper, with no per-user charge, and create a POS terminal for each counter, each with its own shift and Z-report. Free is for the owner alone.
Does it prepare GST returns for my shop?
On Pro, VyapRise builds the GSTR-1, GSTR-3B and HSN summary reports from your bills, checks the GSTR-1 file before filing, and Send to CA emails the files to your accountant. It does not file returns: you or your CA file on the GST portal. A composition shop's bills print as a Bill of Supply on every plan.
