ERP cost and ROI calculator
How it’s worked out.
The method the calculator applies, from ICAI’s study material and the CGST Act.
The payback period is how long it takes for the cumulative net cash flows from an investment to equal what was spent on it.

When the cash flows are uneven, add them up period by period. Payback is the period in which the running total covers the outlay.

Payback ignores the time value of money, and anything gained after the payback period.

A registered business can take credit of the GST charged on goods and services it uses in the business. So the GST on a subscription comes back, and costs are compared before GST.

A business in the composition scheme cannot take input tax credit. For it, the GST on the subscription is a cost.

One example, step by step.
Five users on Starter, billed annually, with Quick Start setup. Current software and IT cost ₹18,000 a year, and the team saves 4 hours a week. Every saving here is an assumption.

Enterprise and large teams
From 50 users, Enterprise starts from ₹29,999 a month, billed annually. Its price is agreed on a call, so it isn’t in the calculator.
Add-ons
An industry pack (₹1,499), an extra company (₹999), an extra GSTIN (₹499) or a POS register (₹499), each a month, isn’t counted. The pricing page lists them all.
GST for a composition business
Prices are before GST. If you can’t claim input tax credit, add the GST on your invoice to the cost.
The time value of money
A rupee in three years is worth less than one today. The calculator doesn’t discount, as payback doesn’t.
Discounting techniques consider the time value of money and discount the cash flows to their present value.

Income tax
The subscription is a business expense, and that changes the after-tax figure. Ask your CA.
Prices after three years
The calculator holds today’s prices for all 36 months.

ERP cost questions people ask.
How much does PrimoERP cost in India?

Where do the savings figures come from?
From you. The calculator has no figure of its own for what an ERP saves. The figures it opens with are a small example. Replace them with what your own team spends on re-keying, chasing and checking.
How is the payback month worked out?
Month by month: what you pay at the start of each month, against what you save by its end. The payback month is the first one by whose end the savings cover everything paid so far.
Are the prices before or after GST?
Before GST. A registered business claims the GST on its subscription back as input tax credit. In the composition scheme, you can’t, so add the GST to the cost.
Is annual or monthly billing cheaper?
Annual. Monthly billing costs about 20% more. Switch billing in the calculator to see the difference over three years.
Is there a free trial?
Yes: 14 days, with no card needed.
Is what I type saved or sent anywhere?
No. The figures are worked out in your browser. Nothing is sent, stored or tracked by the calculator.
