One platform for Indian service firms.
StartEx ONE is a web-based business management platform for Indian service businesses. It combines CRM, proposals, GST-ready invoicing, project tracking, accounting, payroll and statutory renewal monitoring in a single login, and starts at ₹199 per month.
Most Indian consultancies and agencies run on a stack that grew by accident: Tally for the books, Word for quotations, an Excel sheet for who owes what, and WhatsApp for everything else. It holds until the team passes four people or the invoices pass fifty a month. StartEx ONE replaces that stack with one system built around how Indian service firms actually bill and get paid.

What India firms use it for.
GSTIN on every document
Your GSTIN and your client's are stored on the record and print on the invoice. Set your tax label and rate once and it applies everywhere.
Rupee formatting that reads right
Amounts group the Indian way — 12,34,567, not 1,234,567 — on screen and on the printed invoice.
Part payments, the way clients actually pay
Record ₹40,000 against a ₹1,00,000 invoice and the balance, the client page and the dashboard all update together.
Statutory dates that don't slip
Udyam, shop and establishment, FSSAI, professional tax, ISO certificates, digital signature certificates — each with its expiry counting down.
Payroll that feeds the books
Run salaries with allowances and deductions, print the slips, and the total is already in your expense report.
Support in your language
WhatsApp support in English or Malayalam, from the team in Kochi that wrote the software.
Used by firms in Kochi, Thiruvananthapuram, Kozhikode, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Pune, Delhi NCR, Coimbatore.
Twelve modules. One login. One monthly price.
Not twelve subscriptions stitched together with exports and prayer — one database, so a payment recorded against an invoice moves the accounts, the client page and the dashboard at the same time.
Clients
Every company, contact, document and transaction in one record. Leads become clients without re-typing anything.
CRM & follow-ups
A pipeline with dated follow-ups, so the enquiry from last Tuesday doesn't quietly die.
Proposals
Built from a saved service catalogue, duplicated from past quotes, printed with your branding.
Invoices
Automatically numbered, part-payment aware, with your logo, stamp and payment QR on the print.
Projects & tasks
To do, doing, done — per project, per person, with the client attached.
Accounting
Payments in, expenses out, categorised, with monthly reports and no spreadsheet formulas.
Salary & payroll
Monthly runs with allowances and deductions, and a printable slip for every employee.
Renewal monitor
Licences, visas, permits and subscriptions counting down, with credentials and documents stored beside them.
Employees
Staff records and documents, wired into payroll and project assignment.
WhatsApp bulk
Send an offer or a reminder to a filtered list of clients without exporting a single number.
Service catalogue
Your services and rates, saved once, reused in every proposal and invoice.
Users & access

StartEx ONE in India — common questions
Is StartEx ONE GST ready?
Invoices carry your GSTIN and your client's GSTIN, and the tax label and percentage are set once in Settings and print on every document. It is not a GST return-filing tool — your accountant still files, using reports you can export.
Does it replace Tally?
For most service firms it covers invoicing, payments, expenses and monthly reporting. If your accountant files returns from Tally, keep Tally for filing and run the client, proposal, project, payroll and renewal side on StartEx ONE.
Are the amounts in rupees?
Yes. Prices, invoices and reports are in INR with Indian digit grouping throughout.
Can I pay monthly?
Yes. Plans are ₹199, ₹499 and ₹999 per month, billed monthly, and you can move between them at any time.
