Live stock ledger and tax-ready invoicing on the same connected core used across the platform, plus a genuine storefront — products, cart, orders, returns.
Without a live ledger, physical stock and recorded stock diverge until the next manual count catches it.
Without one shared stock ledger behind both channels, online orders can sell stock that is not actually there.

| Reporting | Reports & Dashboards | Medium | Available |
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 turnover | Verdict | What that means in practice |
|---|---|---|
| ₹1 lakh – ₹1 crore | Replaces with gaps | Good for an online-first seller. If you have a physical counter you will still need a separate billing system — there is no point-of-sale here. |
| ₹1 – 10 crore | Replaces | Full replacement for an online or wholesale-led retailer: storefront, cart, orders, returns, stock and GST invoicing on one ledger. |
| ₹10 – 100 crore | Replaces with gaps | Workable, but demand planning is absent, and multi-store chains will feel the lack of store-level consolidation. |
| ₹100 crore and above | Not yet | Not yet. Retail at this scale needs POS estate management, demand forecasting and marketplace channel integration, none of which exist. |
What is built and enforced in the product today, by jurisdiction. Anything not listed here is not claimed.
Statutory filing is built for India only. Elsewhere Rebota runs the retail operation and local filing stays with your accountant.
| Alternative | Stay with it when | Move to Rebota when |
|---|---|---|
| Zoho Books | You need books and invoices, and your store runs on a separate platform you are happy with. | You want the storefront, the stock ledger and the books to be one system rather than three that reconcile nightly. |
| Tally | Accounting is the whole requirement and stock is a register. | Online orders are selling stock you do not physically have. |
| Excel and WhatsApp | One channel, low volume, one person. | You sell in more than one place and the two disagree about what is in stock. |
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 built | Who actually needs it |
|---|---|
| Point of sale | Any retailer with a physical counter. There is no POS module, no billing terminal and no offline mode — you would keep your existing counter software. |
| Marketplace channel integration | Sellers listing on Amazon, Flipkart or Meesho who want orders and stock synced automatically. |
| Demand planning | Retailers whose margin depends on buying the right quantity ahead of a season. |
