How It Works
Versatile Accounting and Billing Software for Every Sector
Why look for a Marg ERP alternative?
Marg ERP is a long-established desktop package, especially strong for pharma and FMCG distributors who need batch, expiry and scheme handling. Traders, wholesalers and manufacturers often look for an alternative when they want their books on the cloud, a cleaner interface their staff learn quickly, and billing from a phone or a second branch without a server. hisabkitab is a cloud alternative built by Chartered Accountants.
How does pricing compare?
Marg sells one-time licences by edition through its dealer network, so prices vary by edition and dealer, with renewals for updates. hisabkitab is a single yearly subscription of ₹2,999, ₹4,999 or ₹6,999 (exclusive of 18% GST) that includes updates, cloud hosting, backups and the mobile apps.

Bill and check stock from any browser or phone, at any location

When is Marg the better choice?
