Tally AMC in Bettiah: Complete Annual Maintenance & Support Guide

Tally AMC (TSS - Technical Support Subscription) is your annual maintenance contract for TallyPrime. It covers updates, GST compliance, e-invoicing, and priority support. Silver TSS costs Rs 4,500 + GST; Gold costs Rs 13,500 + GST annually. Without active TSS, Tally works offline but loses compliance updates and connected services.

What is Tally AMC and Why You Need It

Tally AMC, formally known as TSS (Technical Support Subscription), is an annual maintenance contract that keeps your TallyPrime software updated, secure and compliant with Indian tax laws. If you run a business in Bettiah, West Champaran district, maintaining active TSS is critical for GST filing, e-invoicing, TDS/TCS computation and staying aligned with Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) rules.

When you purchase a new TallyPrime license, the first year of TSS is included free. After that year expires, you must renew TSS to continue receiving updates. Without TSS, your Tally keeps working offline, but you lose access to critical compliance features and rule updates that change monthly in India.

Tally TSS Pricing for Silver and Gold Licenses

Tally TSS renewal costs depend on your license type. Here is the current pricing structure, indicative for 2026:

License Type	TSS Annual Cost	With 18% GST	Best For
Silver (Single User)	Rs 4,500	Rs 5,310	Solo traders, small shops
Gold (Unlimited Users on LAN)	Rs 13,500	Rs 15,930	Offices, firms, multi-user setups
2-Year Silver (Early Renewal)	Rs 8,100	Rs 9,558	~10% discount + 1 free month
2-Year Gold (Early Renewal)	Rs 24,300	Rs 28,674	~10% discount + 1 free month

Early TSS renewal, done 1-2 months before expiry, adds approximately 1 free month to your subscription. A 2-year TSS renewal saves roughly 10% compared to renewing annually.

What TSS Includes: Updates and Connected Services

Active TSS subscription provides several critical benefits:

• Monthly GST Rule Updates: GST rates, exemptions, and compliance rules change frequently. TSS ensures your TallyPrime reflects the latest rules from the GST Council.
• TDS and TCS Updates: Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) and Tax Collected at Source (TCS) rates and thresholds are updated annually. TSS keeps your calculations accurate.
• E-Invoicing Integration: TSS enables real-time e-invoicing via IRP (Invoice Registration Portal). Your invoices generate IRN (Invoice Reference Number) and QR codes automatically, flowing to GSTR-1.
• E-Way Bill Support: TSS allows you to generate e-way bills directly from TallyPrime for inter-state movement of goods.
• GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B Reconciliation: TallyPrime 6.x with active TSS lets you reconcile GSTR-2B with your purchases and auto-populate GSTR-1 with your sales.
• Software Updates and Bug Fixes: Regular updates patch security vulnerabilities and add new features.
• Priority Technical Support: TSS includes access to Tally support channels for troubleshooting and guidance.

What Happens When Tally TSS Expires

If your TSS expires and you do not renew, TallyPrime continues to function as an offline accounting software. You can still:

• Record purchase and sales invoices
• Maintain ledgers and accounts
• Generate trial balance, profit and loss, and balance sheet reports
• Print vouchers and statements

However, you lose access to:

• GST rule updates and compliance features
• E-invoicing and IRN generation
• E-way bill generation
• TDS/TCS updates
• GSTR-1, GSTR-2B, and GSTR-3B filing features
• Connected services and cloud integration
• Priority technical support

For businesses in Bettiah that file GST returns or handle TDS, an expired TSS creates serious compliance risk. Tax authorities expect businesses to use updated software. Renewing TSS promptly is a best practice.

How to Enable GST and File GSTR-3B with Active TSS

To use GST features in TallyPrime, you must first enable GST under the company configuration. Follow these steps:

1. Open TallyPrime and select your company
2. Press F11 (Features)
3. Scroll to Statutory and Taxation
4. Select GST and set it to Yes
5. Enter your GSTIN (13-digit GST number)
6. Save and exit

Once GST is enabled and TSS is active, you can file GSTR-3B. The GSTR-3B is a monthly return due on the 20th of the following month for regular taxpayers. To generate GSTR-3B in TallyPrime:

1. Go to Gateway of Tally > Display More Reports > GST Reports > GSTR-3B
2. Or press Alt+G and select GSTR-3B
3. Choose the month and year
4. Review the report and file via the GSTN portal

GSTR-1 (outward supplies) is filed monthly or quarterly depending on your turnover and composition scheme eligibility. Active TSS ensures your GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B data is always compliant with the latest GST rules.

E-Invoicing and IRN Generation with TSS

E-invoicing is mandatory for businesses with annual turnover above Rs 20 crore (and Rs 5 crore from 1 October 2024). With active TSS, TallyPrime can generate e-invoices automatically.

When you create a sales invoice in TallyPrime and TSS is active:

1. The invoice is sent to the IRP (Invoice Registration Portal)
2. IRP generates an IRN (Invoice Reference Number) and QR code
3. The IRN and QR are printed on your invoice
4. The invoice data flows automatically to your GSTR-1

Without active TSS, you cannot generate IRNs in TallyPrime. You would need to file e-invoices manually via the GSTN portal, which is time-consuming and error-prone. For businesses in Bettiah handling e-invoicing, active TSS is non-negotiable.

Tally on Cloud: An Alternative to Desktop TSS

If you prefer not to manage Tally on your local computer, Tally on Cloud is an option. Tally Cloud offers:

• Bring-Your-Own-Licence (BYOL) Hosting: Approximately Rs 175-290 per user per month for hosting only
• Hosted Licence Option: Approximately Rs 899-1,299 per month with Tally license included
• Multi-Device Access: Secure RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) access from Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, and iOS
• 99.9% Uptime Guarantee: Enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure with daily automated backups
• No Local Installation: Access Tally from anywhere with internet connectivity

Tally Cloud is ideal for businesses in Bettiah with multiple office locations or remote teams. Your TSS remains active in the cloud, and all compliance features work seamlessly.

Data Repair and Troubleshooting When TSS Issues Occur

Occasionally, Tally may show errors related to TSS validation or license server connectivity. If you encounter license or data issues:

1. Press Alt+Y (Data menu) and select Repair
2. Alternatively, press F1 (Help) > Troubleshooting > Repair
3. Always back up your company data before running repair
4. If the error persists, check your internet connection and TSS validity date

For license server errors, ensure the correct IP address and port are set in TallyPrime Server Monitor. A stable internet connection is required for TSS validation. If you are in Bettiah and facing persistent technical issues, contact Global IT Care for on-site or remote support.

TSS Renewal Timing and Early Renewal Benefits

Plan your TSS renewal strategically to maximize value:

• Renew 1-2 months early: You gain approximately 1 free month of coverage
• Choose 2-year renewal: Save roughly 10% compared to annual renewal and lock in current pricing
• Set calendar reminders: Check your TSS expiry date in TallyPrime under Help > About
• Avoid gaps: Do not let TSS expire; the compliance risk is high

For example, if your Silver TSS expires on 15 March 2026, renewing on 15 January 2026 adds 1 free month, extending coverage to 15 April 2026. A 2-year Silver renewal in January costs approximately Rs 8,100 (before GST), saving you Rs 900 versus two annual renewals.

Tally License Types and Upgrade Path

Understanding your license type helps you choose the right TSS plan. Tally offers two main perpetual licenses:

• Silver (Single User): One user on one computer. Perpetual license: Rs 22,500 + 18% GST. TSS renewal: Rs 4,500 + GST annually. Best for sole proprietors and small traders in Bettiah.
• Gold (Unlimited Users on LAN): Unlimited users on a local area network. Perpetual license: Rs 67,500 + 18% GST. TSS renewal: Rs 13,500 + GST annually. Best for offices, accounting firms, and multi-user businesses.

You can upgrade from Silver to Gold for Rs 45,000 + 18% GST. The upgrade is a one-time payment; you do not repurchase the license. After upgrade, your TSS renewal cost becomes the Gold rate.
