What is Xero?

Xero is billing software from Xero, based in Wellington, New Zealand and has been building software since 2006. Cloud accounting with bank feeds, invoicing and a large app ecosystem.

Billing software generates GST-compliant invoices, handles e-invoicing and e-way bills where they apply, and keeps a clean record for filing. For most Indian SMBs this is the first software they buy after Tally, and the wrong choice shows up as hours lost every single week.

Pricing is published and starts at roughly ₹2,400 per month. Beyond billing software, Xero also covers accounting software.
