Real estate ERP: development cost control and unit sales in one platform

Every development on one dashboard — contractor billing and retention for the build side, plus a real unit-sales layer: availability, bookings and milestone payment tracking.

Industry Optimized

What makes Real Estate Development hard to run on spreadsheets

No single view across developments

Managing multiple residential or commercial developments without a shared dashboard means status lives in separate files per project.

Contractor billing and retention are hard to reconcile

Without a system tracking certified vs received amounts, retention held across contractors becomes difficult to reconcile at handover.

Unit availability and buyer payments are tracked separately from the project

Sales spreadsheets showing which units are booked, sold or available drift out of sync with the actual project the moment either side updates independently.

Does it fit a company your size?

Rebota is used across a wide revenue range, and the honest answer differs by band. This is what it replaces outright, what it replaces with gaps you should plan around, and where you would be better served elsewhere today.

Annual turnoverVerdictWhat that means in practice
₹1 – 10 crore Replaces Full replacement for a single-project developer: units, bookings, collections, construction cost and the ledger in one place.
₹10 – 100 crore Replaces Works well. Unit inventory, customer collections against milestones, contractor bills and project cost control are all live and connected.
₹100 – 500 crore Replaces with gaps Usable, with two gaps: RERA quarterly reporting is prepared outside the system, and each SPV is its own company with consolidation done manually.
₹500 crore and above Not yet Not yet. Multi-SPV consolidation and integrated scheduling are prerequisites at this size and neither exists.

Statutory and compliance coverage

What is built and enforced in the product today, by jurisdiction. Anything not listed here is not claimed.

India — built and enforced

  • GST on under-construction sales with e-invoicing and IRN capture
  • TDS under section 194C on contractor payments and 194-IA where applicable
  • Ind AS 115 revenue recognition on the percentage-of-completion basis
  • Schedule III presentation for statutory accounts
  • Rule 3(1) audit trail — non-disableable, append-only, hash-chained

Other markets — currency and calendar only

  • Multi-currency bookings and vendor bills
  • Any financial year

Statutory filing is built for India only.

Rebota versus what you are probably using

AlternativeStay with it whenMove to Rebota when
Tally Books only, with unit bookings tracked separately in a spreadsheet. You need unit inventory, collections and construction cost to be one connected picture.
SAP You are a listed developer with statutory consolidation across many SPVs. You are paying enterprise licensing for a handful of projects.
Excel and WhatsApp One small project, sold out, nothing left to track. Sales and site each hold a different version of what a unit has cost and collected.

What Rebota does not do for Real Estate Development yet

If one of these is core to how you run, Rebota is the wrong choice today and we would rather you knew now than in month three.

Not builtWho actually needs it
RERA quarterly reportingEvery registered developer. Rebota holds the underlying project, cost and collection data, but it does not generate or file the RERA return — that is prepared outside the system.
Multi-SPV consolidationDevelopers running each project as its own company and needing consolidated group statements.
Critical-path schedulingDevelopers whose construction programme is managed as a CPM network rather than as activities and progress.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I see all my developments on one dashboard?▾
Yes — the multi-project dashboard shows every development on one screen with cost, billing and progress visibility.
Can I track which units are available, booked or sold?▾
Yes — the Real Estate Units & Bookings module tracks a tower/floor/unit hierarchy per project with live status (available, held, booked, sold, blocked).
Does a booking track what the buyer still owes?▾
Yes — each booking has a milestone-based payment schedule (e.g. on booking, on foundation, on possession) with due vs received amounts, optionally linked to a real GST invoice once one is raised.
