Restaurant POS under ₹500/month —
the real cost, not just the sticker price.
billzova is ₹399/month — comfortably under ₹500, and that's the total cost. GST billing, KOT, inventory, staff, CRM, multi-branch reports and offline billing all included, with no add-ons discovered later. First month free.
The struggle
Sound familiar?
Budget tools that skip GST compliance
Many under-₹500 options calculate tax manually or don't split CGST/SGST correctly, creating filing problems later.
Hidden upgrade prompts after signup
A low starting price that turns into ₹999+ the moment you need reports, staff accounts, or inventory.
Per-branch pricing that punishes growth
Opening a second outlet shouldn't mean a software bill that suddenly doubles unexpectedly.
Reliability sacrificed to hit a lower price
Cheaper tiers sometimes drop offline support, which can cost more in lost sales than it saves in fees.
Market Pricing
How much does restaurant POS software cost in India?
Prices range from free basic billing apps to ₹15,000–₹50,000+ per year for enterprise platforms — most of which quote per outlet after a sales call. Here is how the options compare on real total cost.
| Software | Typical cost | Pricing model |
|---|---|---|
| billzova | ₹399/mo (₹3,999/yr) | Flat, published — every feature included, first month free |
| GoFrugal | From ₹18,000/year (Starter) | Tiered; higher plans quote-based, implementation extra |
| Petpooja | ~₹15,000–₹30,000/yr | Quoted after enquiry; varies by outlets and add-ons |
| Restroworks / Posist | From ~₹36,000/yr | Sales-led; scoped for large, multi-outlet chains |
| Free / basic billing apps | ₹0 – ₹200/month | Cheap, but often skip GST split, KOT or offline mode |
Competitor prices are approximate ranges reported on public review sites — Petpooja and Posist / Restroworks do not publish official pricing; GoFrugal Starter is publicly listed. Figures vary by outlets, plan and add-ons — verify on each vendor's site. billzova pricing is ₹399/month or ₹3,999/year, published in full.
For a single independent restaurant, cafe, or QSR, the honest total cost of a capable, GST-ready POS in India is comfortably under ₹500/month — if you choose flat, published pricing. billzova is ₹399/month (₹3,999/year on the annual plan, about ₹11/day), and that number includes GST billing, KOT printing, inventory, staff management, CRM, reports, multi-branch and offline mode. There is no separate premium tier and no per-outlet surcharge.
Enterprise platforms are typically far more expensive and quote-based, which suits large multi-outlet chains but is usually more than a smaller restaurant needs. Free apps look cheaper on paper, but often cut GST compliance, KOT, or offline billing — which can cost far more in filing errors and lost sales than they save.
