What is GNUKhata?

GNUKhata is a Free and Open Source (FOSS) Accounting Software. It can be deployed by:

  • Both profit making and Non-profit making organisations
  • NGOs.

It provides a Free and Open Source(FOSS) solution for basic book keeping.


It includes all reports needed by accountants such as:

  • Ledgers
  • Trial Balance
  • Balance Sheet

This project was initiated by Mr. Krishnakant Mane from IIT-Bombay, Team Leader of this Project.


FOSS

Here Free means not just free of cost, but it is the freedom to:

  • Modify the software
  • Re-distribute several copies of the software.

Please read the GNU General Public License(GPL) version 3 under which GNUKhata is released.


  • GNUKhata supports a wide range of applications in every field of economic activity.
