Which POS and billing software should a retail shop use?

Zoho POS to start free, Vyapar if GST billing is the main job, GoFrugal for a busy multi-counter store, and Shopify POS if you also sell on Shopify. Zoho POS has a free plan (1 register, 50 POS transactions) and paid plans from ₹649 per location a month billed yearly (₹799 monthly), with barcode billing apps for Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone; Vyapar costs ₹4,399 a year for desktop plus mobile and covers GST invoices, stock and payments; GoFrugal sells a retail ERP per store as a one-time licence or yearly subscription, with purchase, inventory and reports; Shopify POS comes with every Shopify plan from ₹1,994 a month, and POS Pro adds ₹7,000 a location a month for staff and stock controls; TallyPrime, from ₹750 a month plus GST, suits shops whose accountant already uses Tally. Check GST invoices, barcode scanning and UPI support before you buy. The rule: one counter and simple billing, Vyapar or Zoho's free plan; a shop plus a website, Shopify POS or Zoho.
