Tally AMC (Annual Maintenance Contract) in Katihar, Bihar

Pranav Anand · June 14, 2026

Tally AMC (TSS) in Katihar is an annual maintenance contract that keeps your Tally software updated, secure, and compliant with GST, e-invoicing, and TDS rules. Costs range from Rs 4,500 to Rs 13,500 per year plus GST, depending on your licence type.

What is Tally AMC (TSS) and Why You Need It

Tally AMC stands for Annual Maintenance Contract, officially called TSS (Tally Support Services) by Tally Solutions. Every new Tally licence purchase includes one year of TSS free. After that, you must renew TSS annually to keep your software compliant, secure, and functional with the latest tax and regulatory rules.

In Katihar, businesses rely on Tally for daily accounting, inventory, and GST compliance. Without active TSS, your Tally software will continue to run offline, but you will lose critical updates, compliance rule changes, e-invoicing integration, and technical support. For any business filing GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, or e-invoices, TSS renewal is non-negotiable.

Tally AMC Costs for Silver and Gold Licences

Tally offers two main licence types, each with its own TSS renewal cost (indicative 2026 pricing):

Licence Type Annual TSS Cost GST (18%) Total with GST Users
Silver (Perpetual) Rs 4,500 Rs 810 Rs 5,310 1 user
Gold (Perpetual) Rs 13,500 Rs 2,430 Rs 15,930 Unlimited on LAN

These are the standard annual renewal rates. If you renew early (before expiry), Tally adds approximately one free month to your TSS term. If you renew for two years upfront, you receive roughly a 10% discount on the total amount.

When Should You Renew Your Tally AMC in Katihar

Check your licence expiry date by opening TallyPrime and pressing Alt+H (Help) or navigating to Gateway of Tally > About Tally. Your TSS expiry date is shown there. Most businesses in Katihar renew 30 to 60 days before expiry to avoid service gaps. If you renew early, the new term starts immediately and extends your coverage.

Many Katihar businesses renew in bulk during year-end (March-April) or mid-year (September-October) to align with their financial year or GST filing cycle. Early renewal is always advisable because it ensures you have the latest updates for GSTR-3B filing (due on the 20th of the following month) and e-invoicing compliance.

What TSS Renewal Includes

When you renew Tally AMC (TSS), you receive:

  • Software Updates: All bug fixes, performance improvements, and new features released during the renewal year.
  • GST Rule Changes: Automatic updates for GSTR-1, GSTR-2B, GSTR-3B, TDS, and TCS rule changes announced by the Government of India.
  • e-Invoicing Integration: IRN (Invoice Reference Number) generation, QR code embedding, and auto-flow to GSTR-1 via the IRP (Invoice Registration Portal).
  • e-Way Bill Support: Updates for e-way bill generation and cancellation rules.
  • Connected GST: Real-time GSTR-2B reconciliation (TallyPrime 6.x and above).
  • Technical Support: Access to Tally's support portal and helpline for troubleshooting.
  • Data Security: Compliance with latest data protection and audit trail requirements.

What Happens After TSS Expiry

If you do not renew your Tally AMC (TSS), your software does not stop working. However, you lose all the above benefits. Specifically:

  • Tally continues to run offline for day-to-day accounting and inventory.
  • No software updates or bug fixes are applied.
  • GST rule changes are not reflected; your GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B reports may become non-compliant.
  • e-Invoicing stops working because it requires active TSS and internet connectivity to the IRP.
  • Connected services (GSTR-2B auto-fetch, e-way bill, TDS portal) are disabled.
  • You cannot access Tally's support team for help.

For businesses in Katihar filing GST returns, this is risky. The Income Tax Department and GST authorities expect your e-invoice data and GSTR files to match. Without TSS, you risk mismatches, penalties, and audit notices.

How to Enable and Configure GST in TallyPrime

To use GST features (which require active TSS), you must first enable GST in your company. Press F11 (Features) in TallyPrime and scroll to Statutory and Taxation. Set GST to Yes. Then:

  1. Go to Gateway of Tally > F11 (Features).
  2. Scroll down to Statutory and Taxation.
  3. Set GST to Yes.
  4. Set e-Invoicing to Yes (if you are a registered business with annual turnover above the e-invoicing threshold).
  5. Save and press Ctrl+S.

Once enabled, you can generate GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B reports. Press Alt+G to open the GST Reports menu, or navigate to Gateway of Tally > Display More Reports > GST Reports.

  • You upgrade to Gold on 1 April 2026.

If you prefer cloud-based accounting, Tally offers Tally on Cloud with secure RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) access from Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, and iOS devices. Cloud plans include:

  • With Licence (~Rs 899-1,299/month): Tally licence + hosting + TSS all included. Best for new users or those without an existing licence.
  • Bring-Your-Own-Licence (~Rs 175-290/user/month): You provide your own Tally licence (Silver or Gold), and we host it. Your licence must have active TSS.

Cloud plans come with 99.9% uptime SLA and daily automated backups. For Katihar businesses with remote staff or multiple office locations, this is ideal.

Data Repair and Troubleshooting with Active TSS

If your Tally data becomes corrupt or you encounter licence errors, TSS support helps you troubleshoot. Common fixes include:

Data Repair: Press Alt+Y (Data) in TallyPrime, then select Repair. Always back up your data first (Gateway of Tally > Backup). Tally will scan and fix corrupted entries.

Licence Server Error: If you see "Licence server not responding," check that your Tally Server Monitor has the correct IP address and port. Ensure your computer has internet connectivity. With active TSS, our support team can remotely diagnose and resolve this.

Without TSS, you are on your own for troubleshooting. With TSS, you have expert guidance.

GSTR-3B Filing and TSS Dependency

GSTR-3B (monthly GST return) is due on the 20th of the following month for regular taxpayers. To file GSTR-3B from Tally, you need:

  1. Active TSS on your licence.
  2. Internet connectivity.
  3. GST enabled in F11.
  4. All purchase and sales invoices recorded in Tally with correct GST rates.

Navigate to Alt+G > GSTR-3B or Gateway of Tally > Display More Reports > GST Reports > GSTR-3B. Tally generates the JSON file, which you download and upload to the GST portal. Without TSS, the connected GST feature is unavailable, and you must manually reconcile GSTR-2B.
