GST accounting, built for auto parts & service
Bill parts and labour on one GST invoice and keep your parts stock honest. LekhaPro scans barcodes for fast counter billing, puts parts and service charges as line items, and tracks item-wise stock with real COGS — fully offline.
What gets in the way today
Parts stock drifts without barcode discipline
Fast-moving spares are easy to lose track of. Manual stock invites shortages and dead inventory you only notice too late.
Parts and labour billed separately
Splitting a job across two systems for parts and service makes totals, GST and records messy.
Counter slows at peak hours
Typing part numbers and rates by hand at the counter costs time when customers are waiting.
How LekhaPro fits your work
Every capability below is built in — offline-first, GST-correct by construction, and posted to a real double-entry ledger.
Barcode parts billing
Scan a part, quantity defaults to one, GST applies from the item master, and the invoice prints — built for counter speed.
Parts and labour on one invoice
Add service/labour charges as line items alongside parts so a job bills as a single GST invoice with the right tax on each line.
Item-wise stock with real COGS
Every part movement updates stock with FIFO or weighted-average cost, so margins on spares are computed from actual cost.
Customer & vendor ledgers
Credit customers and parts suppliers each get a running ledger with receivables/payables ageing.
Works fully offline
The whole product runs on your machine — bill, print and update stock with no internet.
GST-correct by construction
CGST/SGST or IGST split from HSN/SAC and place of supply, GSTR-1 ready, with e-invoice and e-way bill where applicable.

Review low-stock spares and reconcile purchases against GSTR-2B at month-end.
Questions auto parts & service ask
Is there a dedicated job-card / vehicle-history module?
Not as a built-in job-card workflow. You can bill parts and labour together on one GST invoice and use customer records and custom fields for vehicle details, but a full service-job-card and vehicle-history module is not part of the product.
Can I bill parts and labour on the same invoice?
Yes. Parts come from the item master and labour/service is added as line items, so a job bills as one GST invoice with correct tax on each line.
Does it work with a barcode scanner at the counter?
Yes. Any USB barcode scanner adds parts straight onto the invoice, with GST applied from the item master.
Which edition should a auto parts & service business choose?
The Cloud edition. Service & AMC is a Cloud Suite application, so the depth described on this page is not in the Desktop edition. The Desktop edition still runs your books, GST and stock offline — it just does not carry this pack.
What does LekhaPro give a auto parts & service business specifically?
Barcode parts billing, GST invoices for parts and labour as line items, and item-wise stock with real COGS. Concretely: barcode parts billing, parts and labour on one invoice, item-wise stock with real COGS and customer & vendor ledgers — every one of them a working screen described in full further up this page, not a roadmap item.
What problems does this actually solve?
The ones this trade runs into rather than the ones that demo well: parts stock drifts without barcode discipline, parts and labour billed separately and counter slows at peak hours. Each is set out with its cause above, because a business recognising its own problem in writing is worth more than a feature list it has to translate.
What does a normal day look like once it is running?
In order: receive parts into stock from suppliers; cost updates by weighted-average or FIFO., at the counter or after a job, scan parts onto the invoice., add labour/service charges as line items on the same GST invoice. and take payment, print the invoice, and stock drops instantly.. It is one sequence in one application, which is the point — the alternative is the same day spread over a billing tool, a spreadsheet and an accountant's inbox.
Is GST handled correctly for this trade?
Yes, and by construction rather than at filing time. CGST/SGST and IGST are split from HSN or SAC and place of supply as each document is raised, the sale posts to a real ledger, and GSTR-1, 3B and 2B reconciliation come off those same books — so the return matches the accounts because it was never a separate exercise.
Can I move across from what I use today?
Masters and opening balances come across; transaction history does not. There is no automated Tally import yet — it is on the roadmap, and we would rather say so than oversell it. You start clean on a date you choose and keep the old system as a read-only archive, which is why most businesses switch at the start of a financial year or quarter.
What happens when the internet goes down?
This pack is Cloud, so it needs a connection. That is a real constraint and worth weighing: if trading has to continue through an outage, the Desktop edition runs the books, billing and stock entirely offline — without the pack-specific screens on this page.
