Proactiq OS is an AI-powered all-in-one business operating system built for Indian SMBs and enterprises. It combines 18 modules — CRM, HR, Payroll, Finance, GST, Projects, Helpdesk, Marketing, LMS, Procurement, Inventory, Documents, Workflow Automation, Contracts, Field Service, Business Intelligence, Collaboration, and an AI Command Brain — in a single platform. Pricing starts free and scales to ₹12,999/month for unlimited users.

Is Proactiq GST compliant?

Yes. Proactiq natively handles GST-compliant invoicing with automatic CGST/SGST/IGST splits, HSN/SAC code suggestions, GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B preparation, ITC reconciliation, e-invoicing (IRN generation for businesses above ₹5 crore turnover), and e-way bill generation. No add-ons required.

Does Proactiq handle Indian payroll — PF, ESIC, and Professional Tax?

Yes. Proactiq's payroll module is built for Indian compliance. It automatically calculates Employee Provident Fund (PF at 12% of basic salary, capped at ₹15,000 wage ceiling), ESIC (for employees earning up to ₹21,000 gross — 0.75% employee and 3.25% employer contribution), state-specific Professional Tax (Karnataka, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, West Bengal, Telangana and others), and TDS under Section 192 with investment declarations. It exports ECR files for the EPFO portal and generates ESIC and PT challan data.

What is the pricing for Proactiq?

Proactiq offers four plans, all priced in INR with no per-user fees: Free (3 users, 1 module), Starter at ₹2,999/month (10 users, all 18 modules, AI Command Brain), Growth at ₹6,999/month (25 users, AI Autopilot with automations), and Business at ₹12,999/month (unlimited users, full AI autonomy, SSO). Annual plans are available at a 20% discount.

What is the best Zoho One alternative in India?

Proactiq OS is the leading Zoho One alternative for Indian businesses. Unlike Zoho One (which is priced in USD and charges per user), Proactiq is priced in INR with no per-user fees, includes a free plan, and offers modules specifically built for Indian compliance — including GST-native invoicing, Indian payroll (PF, ESIC, PT), and a GST AI Assistant. Proactiq starts at ₹2,999/month for all 18 modules.

What is the best Tally alternative for growing companies?

Proactiq OS is a modern cloud-based alternative to Tally for growing Indian businesses. Unlike Tally, Proactiq combines accounting and GST filing with CRM, HR, payroll, projects, and helpdesk in one platform. It offers real-time collaborative access for multiple team members, AI-generated financial insights, and automated GST return preparation — features Tally does not offer natively.

MSME Software India 2026 — Complete Guide to Digitising Your Business — Proactiq Blog

A practical guide for Indian MSMEs on choosing the right software. Covers GST, payroll, CRM, and government schemes for digital adoption.

Why Indian MSMEs are finally going digital in 2026

For decades, the stereotypical Indian MSME ran on:

A ledger book or Tally

A WhatsApp group for the team

Manual attendance in a register

Invoices printed on letterhead

Payroll calculated in Excel

In 2026, this has changed — not because of hype, but because the math finally works.

The cost of NOT going digital:

3-4 hours per week in manual data entry = ₹15,000-30,000/month in founder time

GST errors due to manual billing = ₹5,000-50,000 in penalties per year

Delayed invoicing = 30-60 days slower collection = ₹5-20 lakh in working capital tied up

No CRM = 30-40% of leads lost to competitors with better follow-up

The cost of going digital (Proactiq OS): ₹2,999/month

The ROI calculation is straightforward for any MSME with 10+ employees.

Government schemes that support MSME digitalisation

SIDBI's Digital MSME scheme provides low-interest credit for technology adoption.

GeM (Government e-Marketplace): MSMEs listed on GeM need GST-compliant invoicing — this is a direct business requirement.

UDYAM registration: Now linked to GST and PAN. Your software should support this linkage.

RoDTEP and MEIS: Export-oriented MSMEs need to track documentation for export incentives. Your software should help.

What MSME software must handle in 2026

1. Udyam/MSME registration data

Your system should store your MSME registration number and link it to quotations and government tenders.

2. GST e-invoicing (mandatory for turnover > ₹5 crore)

If your turnover has crossed ₹5 crore, e-invoicing is mandatory. Your software must generate IRN (Invoice Reference Number) via the IRP portal.

3. TReDS integration

Trade Receivables Discounting System — if you're a supplier to large corporations, TReDS lets you discount invoices early. Your software should export the right data format.

4. MSME payment protection

Under the MSME Development Act, buyers must pay MSMEs within 45 days. Track payment aging and flag violations for legal recourse.

The 5-step MSME digitalisation roadmap

Month 1: Move GST invoicing to software. Stop manual billing.

Month 2: Add HR — attendance, leave, and payroll in one system.

Month 3: Set up CRM — move customer follow-ups from WhatsApp to a proper pipeline.

Month 4: Add helpdesk — track every customer complaint and resolution.

Month 5: Reports and AI — start making decisions from data, not gut feel.

Month 6: You're running a digitised MSME.

Proactiq OS is designed to run all five steps on one platform. Monthly subscription. No consultant needed. Setup takes one day.
