What is Tally GST Filing?

Tally GST Filing is not a separate product you buy. It is the GST and compliance layer built into TallyPrime, the Windows accounting software from Bengaluru-based Tally Solutions. If your sales, purchase and stock entries already live in TallyPrime, the GST returns come out of the same books: GSTR-1, GSTR-3B and CMP-08 are prepared from vouchers, and since TallyPrime 5.0 the software can upload and download returns directly with the GST portal instead of making you export JSON and log in separately.

Its strongest area is the day-to-day work an Indian accountant does every month. TallyPrime reconciles purchases against GSTR-2A and GSTR-2B, flags missing invoices that put input tax credit at risk, and from release 6.1 supports the Invoice Management System (IMS), with release 7.0 adding ITC reduction and amendment handling for B2BA, CDNRA and B2BDNA records. Connected e-invoicing (IRN and QR code at voucher entry, in bulk or offline) has been there since 1.1, and connected e-way bills since 2.0, so a trader who bills on Tally can generate both without a separate portal tab.

The limits are those of TallyPrime itself. It is desktop software for Windows, so a CA who wants to file for 200 small clients from a browser, or a business on Mac, will find a cloud GST tool easier. Remote access needs the separately sold TallyPrime Cloud Access, and WhatsApp sharing is also an extra. You get the newest GST changes only by staying on a current release, which for a lifetime licence means renewing Tally Software Services (TSS).

Pricing is public. TallyPrime Silver (one user, one PC) is Rs 750 a month, Rs 8,100 for 12 months or Rs 22,500 for a lifetime licence, and Gold (multi-user) is Rs 2,250 a month, Rs 24,300 a year or Rs 67,500 lifetime, all plus 18% GST. A single-desk shop is fine on Silver; once two people need to enter vouchers at the same time, Gold is the only option. A free trial is offered, with the licence key to be activated within 7 days of the email.

What works well

  • +GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B can be uploaded and filed straight from TallyPrime since release 5.0
  • +Purchase reconciliation against GSTR-2A and GSTR-2B highlights mismatches that risk input tax credit
  • +IMS support lets you accept, reject or keep inward invoices pending and upload the action from TallyPrime
  • +e-Invoice IRN and QR code and e-way bills are generated during voucher entry, singly or in bulk
  • +Multiple GST registrations can be handled inside one company, useful for multi-state businesses
  • +Published INR pricing, including a Rs 750 monthly rental, with no sales call needed to buy

What to watch out for

  • −Runs as Windows desktop software, so browser-only or Mac users need Cloud Access or a different tool
  • −GST filing is only available inside TallyPrime; you cannot buy the GST module on its own
  • −Prices exclude 18% GST, and Cloud Access and WhatsApp features cost extra
  • −Lifetime licence holders need active TSS renewal to keep receiving statutory GST updates
  • −Silver allows one user at a time, so even a two-person accounts desk must pay for Gold

Best suited for: Indian traders, distributors and manufacturers who already keep books and inventory in TallyPrime · Accountants who want GSTR-2B and IMS reconciliation alongside the ledger instead of in Excel · Businesses with several GSTINs across states that want them inside one company file · Firms raising e-invoices and e-way bills at the time of billing

Tally GST Filing — frequently asked questions

How much does Tally GST filing cost?+

Tally GST filing comes inside TallyPrime, not as a separate purchase. TallyPrime Silver costs Rs 750 a month, Rs 8,100 a year or Rs 22,500 for a lifetime licence, and Gold costs Rs 2,250 a month, Rs 24,300 a year or Rs 67,500 lifetime. All of these prices are before 18% GST, so add that when you budget.

Is there a free trial of TallyPrime for GST?+

Yes. Tally Solutions offers a free trial of TallyPrime from its website. After you sign up you receive a serial number and activation key by email, and the key must be activated within 7 days. The trial lets you test GST returns, reconciliation and e-invoicing on your own data before you pay for Silver or Gold.

Can I file GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B directly from TallyPrime?+

Yes. From TallyPrime 5.0, Connected GST lets you upload GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B data to the GST portal, download returns and file them from inside the software. Older releases rely on JSON export and manual upload. You should be on a recent release, so lifetime licence holders need active TSS to receive these updates.

Does TallyPrime support the GST Invoice Management System (IMS)?+

Yes. TallyPrime 6.1 added IMS support, so you can download inward invoices, mark them accepted, rejected or pending, and upload those actions to the portal. TallyPrime 7.0 extended this with ITC reduction and handling of B2BA, CDNRA and B2BDNA amendments, kept in sync with the GST portal.

Can TallyPrime generate e-invoices and e-way bills?+

Yes. TallyPrime has had connected e-invoicing since release 1.1, generating the IRN and QR code while you save the sales voucher, singly or in bulk, with an offline option. Release 2.0 added connected e-way bills, including bulk generation, cancellation, Part B updates and validity extension, so most traders do not need to open the government portals.

Tally vs ClearTax: which is better for GST filing?+

TallyPrime suits businesses that already keep accounts and stock in Tally, because returns come from the same books without re-uploading data. A cloud filing tool like ClearTax is usually easier for CA firms filing for many clients from a browser. If your billing happens in TallyPrime, using its built-in GST filing avoids an extra subscription and data import.

Does TallyPrime GST work on mobile or in a browser?+

TallyPrime is Windows desktop software, and its GST features run on the desktop. Remote access is available through TallyPrime Cloud Access, which is sold separately and is not included in the Silver or Gold price. If your team works mainly on Mac or from phones, a browser-based GST tool may fit better than TallyPrime.

Can I manage multiple GSTINs in one TallyPrime company?+

Yes. Since TallyPrime 3.0 you can record multiple GST registrations within one company, and keep separate GST records for each location or state. Return reports and exports can be produced per registration or for all of them together, which helps businesses with branches in several states manage compliance from one data file.

Do I need Silver or Gold for GST filing in TallyPrime?+

Both TallyPrime editions include the same GST filing, reconciliation and e-invoicing features. Silver is limited to one user on one PC, while Gold allows several users on a network at the same time. If only one person handles billing and returns, Silver at Rs 750 a month is enough; larger accounts teams need Gold.
