Real estate builder software in Bengaluru
Yes — LekhaPro's Real Estate pack runs booking-to-possession operations for Bengaluru developers: project → tower → floor → unit inventory, deterministic unit pricing, five payment-plan types and a collection desk that reconciles to the paise. Karnataka projects register with RERA Karnataka (rera.karnataka.gov.in), and the pack keeps the per-project figures those filings are built from. Cloud edition, any browser.

The Bengaluru market, honestly
Employment corridors decide Bengaluru’s residential map — Whitefield, the Outer Ring Road belt, Sarjapur Road and Electronic City to the south-east, Devanahalli pulling projects north along the airport road. Karnataka RERA registers projects, guidance values set the reference for agreement values, and khata and title papers are standard buyer questions before booking. Launches are typically phased across many towers with prices revised between releases, so a builder needs version-controlled price lists, floor-rise and facing premiums computed rather than negotiated, and collections mapped to construction stages tower by tower.

What it does not do — in Bengaluru or anywhere
- · The Real Estate pack is Cloud-only — it runs in a browser, not in the offline Windows desktop edition, in Bengaluru or anywhere.
- · It does not submit RERA filings or GST returns for you. It produces the project, booking and collection figures the filings are built from; submission stays with you or your CA.
- · Collections live in the installment ledger as the money-of-record today; posting those receipts into the double-entry General Ledger is a documented next step.
- · No office in Bengaluru — sales and support are online (email and WhatsApp) from an India-based team, with no local branch, reseller or on-site visit.
- · No payroll, attendance or HR module — staff salaries and professional tax stay with your CA, in Karnataka as everywhere.
- · No automated Tally import yet. Masters and opening balances come across; transaction history stays in the old system as a read-only archive.
Questions Bengaluru builders ask
Does LekhaPro's Real Estate module work for builders in Bengaluru?
Yes. It is a Cloud-edition pack that models a Bengaluru project as project → tower/wing → floor → unit, prices every unit deterministically, and runs bookings, installment schedules and collections against it. Nothing is city-locked — the same pack serves a developer anywhere in India, and multiple projects and companies live under one login.
Which RERA do Bengaluru projects register with?
RERA Karnataka (rera.karnataka.gov.in) — the Karnataka authority (rera.karnataka.gov.in, checked 2026-08-05). LekhaPro tracks bookings, instalments and collections per RERA-registered project and holds the project's RERA details on its master; registration itself and the quarterly filings stay between you and the authority.
Can it produce the numbers a RERA quarterly progress report needs?
Yes — the booking register, collections against each project and construction-stage progress rolled up per tower are exactly the figures a quarterly progress filing draws on. It does not submit the filing: LekhaPro produces the numbers, and the upload to the Karnataka authority stays with you.
How does unit pricing work for a Bengaluru project?
Deterministically: base area × rate + floor-rise + charge heads − discount + GST split, with full price history kept on every re-price and the server recomputing each total so a stale quote cannot slip through. Agreement values in Bengaluru are checked by the registrar against locally notified circle or ready-reckoner rates — the software records the price you agreed; verifying the current rate stays with you and the Karnataka registration department.
Which payment plans can we run?
Five types — construction-linked, time-linked, milestone, down-payment and custom — each generating an installment schedule that reconciles to the paise, with delay interest and penalty accrual after a grace period you set. Receipts apply oldest-due-first through the collection desk, and an as-of due register shows every buyer's position.
How is GST handled on under-construction sales in Karnataka?
GST applies to under-construction sales but not to sales after completion — that is the national scheme, and the applicable rate structure is set by notification rather than by Karnataka. LekhaPro splits the tax on each installment demand under the head place of supply dictates (CGST + SGST within Karnataka, IGST for an out-of-state buyer entity) and posts it to the books; confirm the current rate schedule with your CA.
Can buyers in Bengaluru log in and see their own account?
Not yet as self-service — and we would rather say that than imply a portal that is not there. The buyer statement bundle (booking, installment schedule, receipts, agreements, construction progress, scoped to that one booking) exists today as a staff-facing preview you can share; a buyer login is on the roadmap as a separate portal app.
How do broker commissions work?
Each booking can carry a broker, and commissions route through an approval workflow before they pay out — so a Bengaluru channel partner's claim is visible, approved and traceable rather than settled from a spreadsheet. Profitability dashboards then show project margins net of those commissions.
Do you have an office in Bengaluru?
No. LekhaPro is sold and supported online across India — email and WhatsApp support from an India-based team, with no Bengaluru branch, no reseller and no site visit. If your buying process requires a vendor with a local office, that is a fair reason to choose someone else.
How do we try it on a real Bengaluru project?
14 days free, no card. Model one actual tower — real unit areas, your real rate card and one of your live payment plans — and check the installment engine's schedule against the one your CRM or spreadsheet produces today, because the paise-level reconciliation is the part worth testing. The market context matters too: Employment corridors decide Bengaluru’s residential map — Whitefield, the Outer Ring Road belt, Sarjapur Road and Electronic City to the south-east, Devanahalli pulling projects north along the airport road.
