Free migration · All-inclusive pricing · India-first · Your CA, built in
Zoho Books is a capable cloud suite. Mera Invoices is the simpler, India-first way to bill and stay GST-ready — a dedicated CA portal, UPI-first customer payments, and a price you never have to add 18% to. Import your Zoho data and start billing today.
Zoho Books is modern and genuinely good. But it's one module of a sprawling ecosystem, quoted before tax, with user caps and an 'accountant seat' rather than a CA workspace built for India.
Zoho Books is a strong product. Mera keeps the cloud convenience and adds India-first simplicity, a CA portal and honest pricing.
Zoho Books plan names and prices reflect publicly listed India pricing as of July 2026, exclusive of 18% GST — verify current plans with Zoho. Feature comparison reflects parity at the time of writing.
