For sweet shops
Sweet shop billing software for mithai shops in India
A quarter kilo of kaju katli, half a kilo of peda and a gift box, on one bill — and the peda behind it knows how much khoya and milk it took.
Free for 45 days · no card · we do the setup
Nivasik bills a sweet shop by the kilo or the piece, reads the barcode stickers a label scale prints, and keeps stock in grams so the shelf and the books agree. The day opens with a count of what was made and what is left, production follows the recipe from milk to khoya to peda, and regulars can run a khata.
It is the POS at ₹1,499 per outlet a month — the shop is the outlet — and free for 45 days.
Selling by weight
The price per kilo is set once; the counter does the arithmetic.
| On the scale | At ₹640 a kilo | What is stored |
|---|---|---|
| 100 g | ₹64 | 0.1 kg on the bill · 100 g off the stock |
| 250 g | ₹160 | 0.25 kg on the bill · 250 g off the stock |
| 400 g | ₹256 | 0.4 kg on the bill · 400 g off the stock |
| 1 kg | ₹640 | 1 kg on the bill · 1,000 g off the stock |
An illustrative price. Every sweet carries its own price per kilo.
The counter has a keypad for weight with a kg/g switch that starts in kilos, so a quarter kilo is typed as a quarter kilo. Stock is kept in whole grams, which is why a counter selling fifty grams at a time all day still matches the tray at night. A line remembers that it was sold by weight, so a price change next month cannot rewrite what a printed bill said.
For boxes packed in advance, a label scale prints an EAN-13 sticker with the weight inside it; the counter scans it like any barcode and bills the exact grams.
Before the shutter goes up
Opening the day is one sheet, submitted once.
- Yesterday’s closing is already on the sheet, line by line.
- What the kitchen made overnight or this morning is added as production — and its ingredients come off as it is made.
- What has gone off is taken off the books with a reason before anyone can sell it.
- The shelf is counted; any gap between the count and the books is recorded with a reason too.
- Only then, if you switch the rule on, does the counter start selling — so a missing tray is found at eight in the morning, not at the month’s end.
From milk to khoya to peda
Multi-stage production, costed at every step.
Khoya is not bought, it is made — so give the khoya its own recipe (so many litres of milk to the kilo) and give the peda a recipe of khoya, sugar, ghee and elaichi. Record “made ten kilos of peda” and the ingredients come off all the way back to the milk, without a second set of books.
Before a batch goes in, the production preview shows what it will take and reports any shortage; the batch itself refuses to run if an ingredient is short, and says which one. When the milk arrives, the restock sheet takes the litres and what you paid — twenty litres for 1,240 rupees — and works out the price per litre on its own.
Festival days
- The counter keeps billing if the internet goes, with real bill numbers that sync when it comes back — the retail POS page lists what waits for the connection.
- Gift boxes as combos, and barcode labels for boxes packed ahead of the rush.
- Advance orders for boxes booked days before, with the payment taken up front recorded against them.
- Khata for the regular customers and offices that settle monthly — with their mobile number on the account.
- A manager’s PIN for any discount beyond what counter staff may give on their own.
- End day’s report of what sold and what the drawer should hold, printed before the shutter comes down.
What it does not do
Before the next festival season.
Not included, said plainly
- The counter does not talk to a scale over USB; weighed boxes reach it as label-scale barcode stickers.
- No card terminal or UPI soundbox is connected; the UPI QR is shown for the exact amount and a person checks it arrived.
- An order that arrives on a delivery app is keyed in at the counter; the apps do not send orders across.
- No e-invoice or GST filing; GSTR-1 data and a Tally import file (CSV) are exported.
What it costs
₹1,499 per outlet a month for the counter, the stock, production and khata, with no setup fee. A shop that also sells from a second counter elsewhere runs a second outlet. We load your sweets, prices per kilo and recipes during the 45 free days. Returns, gift cards, supplier bills and the rest of what any shop counter does are on the page for shops.
Questions people ask
Can I bill sweets by weight?
Yes. Set a price per kilo, type the weight on the keypad in kilos or grams, and the counter works out the amount; stock comes off in grams.
Can it connect to my weighing scale?
Indirectly. A label scale weighs the box and prints a barcode sticker that carries the grams, and the counter bills from the sticker; a scale plugged in over USB is not read.
How do I track what the kitchen made each day?
Record it as production on the morning sheet, or as a batch at any time of day. Each batch takes its ingredients off by recipe, including multi-stage ones like khoya made from milk.
Can regular customers buy on credit?
Yes, on khata: all or part of a bill goes on a named customer’s account, with their mobile number, and is collected later.
Will billing stop during festival rush if the internet goes down?
No — a shop counter keeps billing offline with real bill numbers and syncs when the connection returns. Loyalty points, gift cards and PIN approvals wait for the network.
