Features

GST & E-Invoice

File every GST return + generate IRN — all direct to government portals

GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, GSTR-9 filed via GSTN ASP API. GSTR-9 Annual Return gives a consolidated 12-month view with discrepancy detection between GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B. E-Invoice (IRN) generation connects directly to the NIC IRP — submit, receive IRN + signed QR code, and cancel within 24 hours, all without leaving AskCApro. The GSTR-2B reconciliation engine flags ITC-at-risk before you file.

  • GSTR-1, 3B, 9 filed via GSTN ASP API (with DSC / EVC)
  • GSTR-9 Annual Return: 12-month consolidated view with discrepancy alert
  • E-Invoice (IRN) generation via NIC IRP — mandatory for >₹5 Cr turnover
  • Signed QR code + IRN returned and stored; 24-hour cancel window
  • GSTR-2B vs purchase register reconciliation with ITC-at-risk flagging

MCA21 filings + Form 3CD with auto-population — only platform that does both

File AOC-4, MGT-7, ADT-1, INC-20A, DIR-3KYC and 5 more forms direct to MCA21 with DSC. For tax audit, our Form 3CD engine auto-populates all 44 clauses by scanning your client's transaction data — including capital credits (clause 9), capex debits (clause 14), and hundi transactions (clause 21) — saving 30+ hours per audit.

  • 10 statutory ROC forms via MCA21 v3 API
  • Form 3CD auto-population: clauses 9, 13, 14, 16, 17, 21, 24, 25, 30, 31, 32, 34, 44

Tally & AskBooks Integration

Pull your clients' Tally data without touching a CSV

The Tally Desktop Agent is a lightweight npm package your clients install on the machine running Tally. It polls Tally's local XML API and pushes vouchers, ledgers, and parties to AskCApro over HTTPS — secured by a per-tenant secret token you control. AskBooks (our own cloud accounting software) connects via API key for real-time sync. Or connect any SaaS via webhook — Zapier, Make, n8n, and Pabbly are all first-class citizens.

  • Tally Desktop Agent: pull vouchers, ledgers, parties — no manual export
  • AskBooks native API-key integration — ledger data always current
  • Universal webhook receiver for Zapier, Make, n8n, Pabbly
  • SAP, Oracle, Dynamics, NetSuite — coming in the enterprise tier
  • Rotate agent token any time; full sync log with timestamps

Practice Analytics

P&L statement, balance sheet, aging analysis — your firm's finances at a glance

Most CA practice software tracks filings. AskCApro also tracks your firm's own financial health. The P&L statement breaks revenue by service type (GST, ITR, TDS, Advisory) with monthly trend bars. Aging analysis shows outstanding receivables in six buckets (Current · 1-30 · 31-60 · 61-90 · 91-120 · 120+ days) per client. The Balance Sheet gives current assets live — AR from open invoices, WIP from unbilled time entries, and cash from collected payments.

  • P&L: revenue by service type · monthly trend · gross profit margin
  • Balance sheet: live current assets — cash, AR, WIP (unbilled time)
  • Aging analysis: 6 buckets, stacked bar, CSV export per client
  • Client profitability: billed vs collected vs hours vs revenue/hour
  • Staff productivity and workload dashboard
See this in action

Migration & Data

Switch from Tally / Saral / Computax in under an hour

The biggest reason CA firms don't change software is migration pain. We solved it. Bulk-import 5,000 clients, fixed assets, time entries, or invoices via CSV. Smart deduplication, GSTIN/PAN/CIN format validation, and auto-WDV computation built in. The wizard previews every row before any data is written.

  • Bulk CSV import: clients, fixed assets, time entries, invoices
  • 5,000-row capacity per file with row-level error reporting
  • Smart dedup against existing records (GSTIN, PAN, CIN)
  • Auto-WDV depreciation when only opening + rate provided
  • Sample CSVs + column aliases (gst→gstin, msme→isMsme, etc.)
See this in action

Billing & Operations

Invoice clients, track collections, manage your entire firm

Raise invoices against engagements, track outstanding balances, and flag overdue accounts. Pair it with time tracking and staff workload views to know exactly which clients are profitable and which staff members are over-allocated.

  • Engagement-linked GST-compliant invoicing
  • Outstanding receivables with overdue ageing
  • Billable time tracking per client and staff
  • Staff workload + utilisation dashboard
  • Income projections + firm-level profitability analytics

Getting started

Set up your entire practice in under an hour

01

Bulk-import your client roster

Bring 100s of clients in via CSV — GSTIN, PAN, CIN, contacts, and engagement details validated row-by-row. From Tally, Saral, Computax, or a spreadsheet. Done in under an hour.

02

Auto-generate the compliance calendar

The moment a client is added, every applicable deadline (GST, TDS, ROC, PF/ESI, PT, advance tax) is mapped automatically. No manual setup needed.

03

Assign tasks to staff

Break filings into tasks, assign to team members, track progress. Staff see their queues; you see the full picture with overdue items flagged.

04

File direct to GSTN, TRACES, IT-ERI, MCA21

No more juggling 4 portal logins. File GSTR-1/3B/9, generate E-Invoices (IRN), file TDS returns, ITRs, and ROC forms directly from AskCApro — with DSC, audit trail, and live status tracking.

Why CA firms switch

The problems every CA firm has.
The platform built to fix them.

These are the exact pain points that led us to build AskCApro from scratch.

😩

The problem: Switching between 6 portals to file a single client's returns

AskCApro: One platform files to GSTN, TRACES, IT-ERI and MCA21 — all direct

😩

The problem: Chasing clients for Tally CSV exports before every GST filing

AskCApro: Tally Desktop Agent pushes data to AskCApro automatically — no exports

😩

The problem: Form 3CD taking 40+ hours per audit season to fill manually

AskCApro: 44 clauses auto-populated from transaction data — audit prep in hours

😩

The problem: No visibility into which clients are overdue or which staff are overloaded

AskCApro: Real-time aging analysis, staff workload dashboard, and compliance health scores

😩

The problem: GSTR-2B ITC mismatches discovered after filing — penalties and notices

AskCApro: GSTR-2B reconciliation runs before filing and flags ITC-at-risk automatically

😩

The problem: E-Invoice IRN generation requiring a separate NIC portal login every time

AskCApro: IRN generated from within AskCApro — signed QR returned and stored instantly

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know

Does AskCApro file directly to GSTN, TRACES, IT-ERI, and MCA21?

Yes — AskCApro is one of the very few CA platforms with direct portal integrations across all four. GSTR-1/3B/9 file via GSTN ASP API, TDS returns via TRACES, ITRs via CBDT ERI, and ROC forms (AOC-4, MGT-7, ADT-1, etc.) via MCA21 v3. DSC signing is handled in-browser via your USB token, and every filing has a full audit trail with reference numbers.

Does AskCApro support E-Invoice (IRN generation)?

Yes. The E-Invoice module connects directly to the NIC IRP (Invoice Registration Portal). Create the invoice, hit Generate IRN — AskCApro submits the JSON payload to NIC, receives the IRN + digitally signed QR code, and stores it against the invoice. You can cancel the IRN within the 24-hour NIC window without leaving the platform. Mandatory for firms with turnover above ₹5 Cr.

How does the Tally integration work?

The AskCApro Tally Desktop Agent is a lightweight npm package installed on the machine running Tally. It polls Tally's local XML API on localhost:9000 and pushes vouchers, ledgers, and party masters to AskCApro over HTTPS using a per-tenant secret token. The token is visible only to your firm admin, can be rotated any time, and every sync is logged with timestamps. No manual CSV exports, no screen-scraping.

Can I migrate my existing clients from Tally / Saral / Computax / spreadsheets?

Yes. Our bulk CSV import wizard handles up to 5,000 rows per file. Required: client name. Optional: GSTIN, PAN, CIN, city, state, industry, phone, email, MSME details. The wizard previews every row, flags duplicates and format issues before any data is written. Most firms migrate their entire roster in under an hour. If your clients run their day-to-day accounts on AskBooks, their ledger data syncs directly into AskCApro — no CSV export needed.

What practice analytics are included?

AskCApro includes a full Practice Analytics suite: P&L statement (revenue by service type — GST, TDS, ITR, Advisory — with monthly trend bars and gross profit), Balance Sheet (live current assets — cash collected, accounts receivable from open invoices, WIP from unbilled time entries), Aging Analysis (outstanding receivables in six buckets: Current · 1-30 · 31-60 · 61-90 · 91-120 · 120+ days), and client-level profitability (billed vs collected vs hours logged vs revenue/hour). All exportable as CSV.

Is AskCApro DPDP Act 2023 compliant?

Yes. We were built with DPDP §6 (consent management), §11 (data export), and §13 (right of erasure) as native features. Tenants can record/withdraw consent per processing purpose, export their full data as JSON, and request scheduled erasure with a 30-day grace period. ICAI-aligned data residency in Indian data centres only.

How is client credential data like GST portal passwords protected?

All credentials in the vault are encrypted with AES-256 (envelope encryption with rotated keys). Only staff with explicit role-based permission can decrypt and view a credential. Every access is logged in an immutable audit trail. Your firm admin controls who sees what.

What if a government portal goes down?

AskCApro has circuit-breaker resilience built in: when GSTN, TRACES, IT-ERI or MCA21 starts failing, in-flight filings are queued automatically, retried once the portal recovers, and you receive a Slack / email alert. No data loss — your filing resumes seamlessly when the portal is back.

How many clients and staff members can I manage?

Starter: 5 clients + 1 user (free, no card needed). Professional: up to 25 clients, 5 staff. Growth: up to 50 clients, 15 staff. Enterprise: unlimited clients + unlimited staff, plus white-label domain, SAML SSO, and dedicated onboarding.

Can I connect third-party tools like Zapier or Make?

Yes — both inbound and outbound. Every AskCApro tenant gets a unique inbound webhook URL to trigger actions from Zapier, Make, n8n, or Pabbly. Outbound webhooks push AskCApro events (task completed, invoice created, invoice paid, filing done) to any HTTPS endpoint in real-time, signed with HMAC-SHA256 so you can verify authenticity.

What happens to my data if I cancel my subscription?

Your data remains yours. On cancellation you get a full data export in CSV and JSON. We retain your data in read-only archive for 90 days post-cancellation so you can retrieve anything you may have missed. After 90 days the data is permanently purged per DPDP Act §13.

Can I try AskCApro before committing?

Yes — full access to all features for 14 days, no credit card required. Our team will walk you through a personalised demo if you prefer to see it in action first.
