GST accounting, built for jewellery & bullion
Bill high-value goods accurately and keep your books tight. LekhaPro raises GST invoices with making charges and other components as line items, tracks item-wise stock by weighted-average cost, and posts customer advances and credit to party ledgers — fully offline, with your data on your own machine.
What gets in the way today
High-value stock with thin records
When each piece is worth a lot, vague stock and cost records are a real risk. You need item-wise stock and valuation you can trust.
Advances and part-payments get messy
Customers pay advances against orders and settle later. Without a clean party ledger, balances and dues drift.
Data sitting in someone else’s cloud
For a high-value business, books living in a third-party cloud you can be locked out of is an avoidable exposure.
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.
GST invoices with making charges as components
Enter metal value, making charges and other components as line items so the invoice total and GST are correct and itemised. (Karat/purity and rates are entered per line or as custom fields, not a dedicated metal-rate module.)
Item-wise high-value stock
Track each item with weighted-average valuation, reservation on orders, and a full stock movement ledger for accountability.
Customer ledgers, advances & credit
Advances against orders, part-payments and dues post to a running party ledger with receivables ageing.
Your data stays on your machine
Books live in local SQLite with encrypted backups — offline-first, no third-party cloud holding your records.
Correct GST by construction
CGST/SGST or IGST split from place of supply and HSN, with credit/debit notes that reverse the right tax on returns.
Branded invoices & multi-series numbering
Professional GST print templates and named numbering series per document, so your billing looks and tracks the part.

Questions jewellery & bullion ask
Does it have a karat/purity and live metal-rate module?
Not as a dedicated module. You enter metal value, making charges and components as line items (and can use custom fields for purity), which keeps the invoice and GST correct — but live rate feeds and karat-specific calculators are not built in.
Can I track customer advances against orders?
Yes. Advances and part-payments post to a running customer ledger with receivables ageing, so balances and dues stay clear.
Is my data safe for a high-value business?
Your books stay on your machine in local SQLite with encrypted backups. There is no third-party cloud holding your records, and only AI and online billing need connectivity.
Is there a dedicated Jewellery & Bullion pack, or is this the general product?
No dedicated pack — this trade runs on the core suite, and we would rather say so plainly than imply a vertical exists. The core covers it — GST billing, weighted-average stock, party ledgers with advances. There is no karat or live-metal-rate module: metal value and making charges are invoice line items. For most businesses in this line of work that is the whole requirement, but if you were expecting trade-specific screens, this is the honest answer.
Which edition should a jewellery & bullion business choose?
Either edition covers this trade, so pick on how you work rather than on features. Desktop keeps the books on your machine and runs with the internet off; Cloud puts the same books in a browser for a team spread across locations.
What does LekhaPro give a jewellery & bullion business specifically?
GST billing for high-value goods, item-wise stock with weighted-average cost, and customer ledgers for advances and credit. Concretely: GST invoices with making charges as components, item-wise high-value stock, customer ledgers, advances & credit and your data stays on your machine — 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: high-value stock with thin records, advances and part-payments get messy and data sitting in someone else’s cloud. 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: add items to stock with cost; valuation updates by weighted-average., book an order and record the customer advance against their ledger., raise the GST invoice with metal value and making charges as line items. and settle the balance; the party ledger and ageing update 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.
