How custom software is priced
Software cost = base system + modules + user roles + integrations + data migration + mobile app + reporting. Each part is effort: screens to design, logic to build and cases to test.
Modules are the biggest driver. Sales, purchase, stock, accounts, production and HR are each a module with its own screens, rules and reports.
User roles multiply the work: an owner, a manager, counter staff and a customer each see different screens and are allowed different actions.
Integrations such as payment gateways, GST e-invoicing, Tally, WhatsApp and SMS take one to two weeks each, including testing with the provider's sandbox.
Data migration from spreadsheets is quick; from an older system it needs mapping, cleaning and a trial run before go-live.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How much does custom software development cost in India?
With Infovion Technologies, a single internal tool or module typically costs ₹75,000 to ₹2 lakh, a business system with four to eight modules ₹2.5 lakh to ₹8 lakh, and a multi-role platform with portals and integrations ₹8 lakh and above. A five-page business website starts at about ₹15,000. Our developers work with AI coding tools, which is why these figures are lower than older price lists. The calculator above gives a range for your own scope.
How much does ERP software development cost?
With Infovion, a custom ERP covering three to six departments typically costs ₹3 lakh to ₹10 lakh, and a multi-branch ERP with integrations ₹10 lakh and above. Cost follows the number of modules, user roles, branches, integrations such as GST e-invoicing and Tally, and the data to be migrated.
How much does CRM software development cost in India?
With Infovion, a focused CRM or lead management system typically costs ₹1 lakh to ₹3 lakh, depending on lead sources, pipeline stages, automation such as WhatsApp follow-ups, and reporting. There is no per-user licence on custom software.
What is the hourly rate for software development in India?
Infovion charges about ₹800 to ₹2,000 an hour for clients in India and about $12 to $25 an hour for clients abroad. Most projects are fixed-price by milestone, so the hourly rate matters mainly for small changes and support.
Why do quotes for the same software differ so much?
Because they often price different things. Check whether each quote includes design, testing, data migration, deployment, source code ownership, documentation and support after launch. A written scope with acceptance criteria makes quotes comparable.
Is custom software cheaper than a subscription product?
A product is cheaper when your process is standard. Custom software costs more up front and carries no per-user fee, so it tends to cost less over three to five years for larger teams, and it fits processes a product cannot.
Is the estimate a fixed price?
No. It is a planning range. After a first call we send a written scope and a fixed price, usually within two business days.
