Most accounting software used by small businesses in Nepal was originally built for a different country's tax system, then patched to sort-of handle VAT, TDS, and local filing requirements. That gap between "adapted for Nepal" and "built for Nepal" is where most of the manual spreadsheet work, month-end scrambling, and filing errors come from.
LekhaX starts from the opposite direction. Nepal's 13% VAT rate, TDS deduction rules, IRD e-billing (CBMS) requirements, and the Nepali fiscal year (Shrawan to Ashad) aren't features bolted onto a generic ledger. They're the foundation the entire product is designed around.
A single place for a business's books: invoicing that's VAT-correct by default, purchase and sales registers that reconcile with monthly filings, TDS tracked against every applicable payment, and reports that are ready the moment Ashad-end closing arrives, not reconstructed from paper bills in the final weeks of the fiscal year.
Built the same way that cairn was: one stone at a time, each one load-bearing.
Small business owners who've outgrown a spreadsheet, shops that need IRD e-billing compliance, and accountants managing books for multiple clients who want one consistent system instead of a different workaround per client.
LekhaX is a product of SoftCrunch. We build software for problems we understand from the inside. LekhaX exists because Nepali businesses deserve accounting software that speaks their tax system fluently, not one translated after the fact.
