FAQ
Popular questions
- How do I get started?
- Create a free account with email or Google, add your business name and GSTIN (we auto-fetch the details), then import customers and items from Tally or Excel. You can raise your first invoice in minutes.
- How do I file GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B?
- LekhaBooks prepares GSTR-1 and 3B from your invoices and purchases, and reconciles GSTR-2B for ITC. It exports filing-ready files you can upload to the GST portal. GSTR-9 and the notices workflow are included on the Enterprise plan.
- Does e-invoicing and e-way bill work automatically?
- Yes — on Growth and Enterprise, e-invoice IRN and e-way bills are generated as part of the invoice flow once you enable them in settings.
- Can I import my data from Tally or Excel?
- You can import customers, items and opening balances from Excel on any plan. Two-way Tally sync is available on the Enterprise plan.
- What’s the difference between Starter, Growth and Enterprise?
- Free is 10 invoices and 10 custom ledger accounts per month with basic GST. Pro (₹2,000/yr) gives unlimited invoices & accounts plus full GST returns, e-invoice, banking and core books. Business (₹12,000/yr) adds payroll, inventory & manufacturing, fixed assets, projects, multi-entity, marketplace and the full AI suite. See the pricing page.
- How do I upgrade or renew?
- Go to Settings → Plan in the app, choose Pro or Business and pay securely via UPI, card or net-banking. Billing is annual; a GST invoice is issued for every payment. Questions: support@lekhabooks.in.
- What happens to my data if I downgrade?
- Nothing is deleted. You simply move back within the lower plan’s limits — your invoices, ledgers and reports stay safe and exportable.
- I forgot my password — how do I reset it?
- On the login page click “Forgot password?”, enter your account email, and we’ll send a 6-digit code to set a new password.
- How do I turn on two-factor authentication (2FA)?
- In the app, open Settings → Security and enable 2FA with any authenticator app. You’ll get backup codes to store safely.
- Can I export all my data?
- Yes. Every invoice, customer, ledger entry and report exports to Excel or JSON at any time — no lock-in, no premium-export fee.
- Is my data secure?
- Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, with role-based access, an audit trail and automatic backups. 2FA is available on every plan.
- Do you work offline / on mobile?
- LekhaBooks is an installable PWA — add it to your home screen on Android, iOS or desktop. It works offline for viewing, and syncs when you’re back online.
