Tally for jewellery shops
Most jewellers' CAs keep the books in TallyPrime. Here is what TallyPrime offers a jewellery shop, what its jewellery page does not mention, and how a jewellery app and Tally work together.
Can Tally be used for a jewellery shop?
Yes. TallyPrime can bill jewellery by weight and purity, add making charges as a fixed amount, a percentage, per gram or per piece, track each piece by tag number, and record metal issued to and received from karigars, all inside full GST accounting. Its jewellery page does not mention girvi, gold savings schemes, old gold exchange, barcode tags or HUID. Many jewellers therefore bill at the counter in jewellery software and send the month's entries to Tally for the CA. Infovion JMS does exactly that with a TallyPrime XML export.

Tally alone is enough when
- Your sales are mostly ready pieces billed by weight
- You do not lend against gold or run savings schemes
- Your accountant enters the bills, or you bill in Tally yourself
A jewellery app helps when
- Staff bill at the counter by scanning tags
- You run girvi, gold schemes, orders, repairs or karigar jobs
- You need stock audits, branches, or screens in an Indian language
- Your CA works in another town on their own copy of Tally
How JMS and Tally work together
- Bill, tag and run girvi in JMS through the month
- Download two TallyPrime files: masters (ledgers), then vouchers
- The CA imports them from Gateway of Tally → Import
- Ledger names in JMS match the CA's existing ledgers, so nothing is duplicated
- Sales with GST, receipts, old gold, udhaar payments, girvi loans and interest all arrive

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does Tally have girvi management?
TallyPrime's jewellery page does not list girvi. Tally partners sell add-ons for some trades; ask your Tally partner. Infovion JMS has a girvi register and sends girvi loans and interest to Tally.
How much does TallyPrime cost?
Silver (single user) is ₹22,500 once or ₹8,100 a year; Gold (multi-user) is ₹67,500 once. The yearly TSS renewal is ₹4,500 for Silver and ₹13,500 for Gold. All plus 18% GST, per Tally's own pages in October 2026.
Can Infovion JMS replace Tally?
Not for accounting: JMS does not keep double-entry books. It replaces the counter work and the jewellery registers, and exports to Tally.
Does the Tally export work with Tally ERP 9?
The files are made for TallyPrime's XML import. If your accountant still uses Tally ERP 9, try a one-month import on a test company first.
