GST accounting, built for textile & garment
Move fabric and apparel fast and keep the money clear. LekhaPro raises B2B GST invoices in seconds, tracks item-wise stock with real COGS, and keeps party ledgers and receivables ageing current — fully offline.
What gets in the way today
Many variants, hard to track
Designs, colours and sizes multiply SKUs quickly. Loose stock records turn into shortages and dead inventory.
Long credit cycles strain cash
Wholesale textile runs on credit. Without ageing, overdue parties slip and working capital tightens.
Margins unclear across lots
If cost is not tied to each sale, profitability per line is a guess.
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.
B2B GST invoices, multi-series
CGST/SGST or IGST split from place of supply and HSN, with named numbering series per document and e-invoice/e-way bill where applicable.
Item-wise stock for variants
Each design/colour/size is an item in the master (with custom fields and tags), so stock and valuation are tracked per variant. (A built-in size-colour matrix grid is not part of the product.)
Real COGS by FIFO or weighted-average
Margin per sale is computed from actual purchase cost, not a year-end estimate.
Party ledgers & receivables ageing
Running Dr/Cr ledgers per customer and vendor with ageing buckets keep long credit cycles under control.
Quote → order → invoice
Quotations and sales orders convert into invoices without re-keying line items.
Works fully offline
Bill, stock and post books on your machine; data stays in local SQLite with encrypted backups.

Questions textile & garment ask
Is there a size-colour matrix grid for apparel?
Not a dedicated matrix grid. Each variant is tracked as its own item in the master with custom fields and tags, which keeps stock, valuation and GST correct per variant — but a single grid-entry screen for size×colour is not built in.
Can it handle long credit cycles in wholesale textile?
Yes. Every party has a running ledger with receivables ageing, so overdue outstanding is visible by customer before it ages further.
Will my margins be accurate across lots?
Yes. Stock is valued by FIFO or weighted-average, so COGS and gross margin are computed from actual cost on each sale.
Is there a dedicated Textile & Garment 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 — B2B GST invoices, FIFO or weighted-average COGS, receivables ageing. Variants are items in the master with tags; there is no size-colour matrix grid. 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 textile & garment 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 textile & garment business specifically?
B2B GST billing, item-wise stock for variants, and party ledgers with receivables ageing — built for fabric and apparel trade. Concretely: B2B GST invoices, multi-series, item-wise stock for variants, real COGS by FIFO or weighted-average and party ledgers & receivables ageing — 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: many variants, hard to track, long credit cycles strain cash and margins unclear across lots. 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 designs/colours/sizes as items with cost; stock valued by FIFO or weighted-average., quote a buyer, convert to a sales order, then a GST invoice., record receipts; party ledgers and receivables ageing update instantly. and reconcile purchases against GSTR-2B for accurate ITC.. 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.
