About us and how we rate software
Last updated
Who we are
CA Practice Software Guide is an independent review site for Indian Chartered Accountants, Company Secretaries and tax professionals choosing practice management software. It is not owned by, or affiliated with, any of the software vendors it reviews.
How we make money
Some "Visit website" links may be affiliate or sponsored links, which can earn us a commission if you buy. These links are marked as sponsored for search engines. A commission never changes the price you pay.
How we score software
Every tool is scored from 1 to 5 on the same five criteria. The overall rating is the average of the five, and the overall rankings are ordered by it.
- Ease of use
- How quickly a firm can set up clients and staff and get daily work done.
- Features
- Coverage of Indian compliance work (GST, ITR, TDS, ROC/MCA, DSC), tasks, documents, billing and client communication.
- Value for money
- What a typical firm pays for that coverage, including user minimums, add-ons and setup fees.
- Support
- Published support channels, onboarding help and track record.
- Security
- Published security practices such as encryption, access controls and certifications.
Sector guides, such as the best GST software, rank tools by how well they fit that specific job. A tool's position there can differ from its overall rank.
Where our facts come from
Pricing, plans and features come from each vendor's own website and published materials. Prices were last checked in June 2026 and exclude 18% GST. Where a vendor doesn't publish something, such as a mobile app or WhatsApp support, we mark it "Not confirmed" instead of guessing. Each review links to the vendor's website so you can check current details.
