Restaurant & QSR Billing Software in Kharar
— trusted by a self-service tandoor counter on billzova.
Twilight Tandoor is a self-service counter in Kharar, Punjab — packaged snacks and cold drinks on one shelf, hot tandoor food off the other. Every bill, whatever the mix, runs through billzova.

The struggle
Sound familiar?
A packed shelf of snacks, billed one by one
Chips, drinks, candy and packaged snacks sit right at the counter — every SKU needs to be found and rung up fast, or the self-service queue backs up.
Hot tandoor items and packaged snacks, two different tax rates
A samosa off the warmer and a packet of chips off the shelf don't get taxed the same way — mixing retail and restaurant billing by hand invites GST mistakes.
Self-service means billing can't be the bottleneck
Customers serve themselves and head straight to the counter — if billing is slow, the queue is what they remember.
The counter
Inside Twilight Tandoor
A self-service counter in Kharar, Punjab, on an upper floor with a view over the town — packaged snacks and cold drinks on one side, tandoor and hot food on the other. Two very different kinds of billing, at the same counter, every day.

Billing for a growing Chandigarh tri-city satellite town
What Running a Food Counter in Kharar Actually Looks Like
Kharar sits just outside Mohali as one of the fast-growing satellite towns in the Chandigarh tri-city region — alongside Zirakpur and Mohali itself, all pulling in residents and businesses as Chandigarh proper fills up. Newer connectivity like the Kharar bypass and the wider tri-city road network has made it easier for customers from across the region to reach a counter here, not just people from the immediate neighbourhood — which changes what "local" competition and demand actually mean for a food business in Kharar versus a town with a more fixed, self-contained customer base.
A self-service format — like a snack counter selling packaged chips and cold drinks alongside hot tandoor food from the same shelf — is common in exactly this kind of growing, commuter-heavy area, where speed at the counter matters as much as the food itself. That's also precisely where billing gets genuinely harder to do by hand: a packaged snack and a plate of tandoor food are taxed differently under GST, and getting that wrong on a busy counter is an easy, repeatable mistake rather than a one-off.
On compliance, it's worth being precise the same way it would be anywhere else in India: GST rates and rules are set nationally, not by Punjab specifically — there's no separate state-level GST rate for a Kharar business. What is genuinely local is trade and health licensing through the relevant municipal or nagar panchayat authority, which every food business here still needs, the same as any town in Punjab.
