Audit intelligence, straight from Tally

Audit software for CA firms in India.An entire audit season,compressed intoan afternoon.

Audcrix is an audit tool built for chartered accountants in India. It reads every ledger and every voucher straight from Tally or Zoho Books, drives the whole statutory battery across the complete population, and hands back a defensible, evidence-backed file in seconds.

The shift

Eighty percent of an audit was never judgement.

It was retrieval, footing, matching and transcription — the season that produces no opinion. Audcrix is built native to that work: it reads the books once and returns the whole of it in seconds. What reaches you is the twenty percent that actually needed a Chartered Accountant.

What lands on your desk already done.

01

Applicability settled before you start

One profile decides what applies — and what does not.

Constitution, turnover, listing, registrations and headcount gate every check, threshold and disclosure that follows. Each one that does not apply says so, and says why.

Gates every test that follows

By handDeciding applicability from memory, client by client
In AudcrixGated automatically, everywhere
02

The books read whole — and the read proved

Every voucher in, and reconciled against Tally's own totals.

A paired outbound channel reads the ledgers and vouchers without opening a port on the Tally machine, resumes where it stopped, refuses the wrong company — then reconciles what arrived against Tally's own trial balance and profit and loss.

A mismatch blocks finalisation, never flows on

By handExporting to Excel and hoping nothing was dropped
In AudcrixRead whole, and proved
03

Every ledger classified and analysed

The whole ledger master read, grouped and understood — not skimmed.

Each ledger placed by its own group chain rather than by a keyword in its name, with movement, balance and behaviour surfaced so the unusual one is visible among the thousand ordinary ones.

The base every other engine reads from

By handScrolling a ledger master looking for something odd
In AudcrixClassified, grouped, ranked
04

Voucher-level scrutiny across the population

Every voucher examined, with the rate or threshold at hand.

Transaction-level examination with reference panels for the limit in question, and anything worth a second look flagged into a consolidated review report.

Ready for your review report

By handSampling vouchers and hoping the rest are fine
In AudcrixAll of them, flagged where it matters
05

Accounting checks that show their basis

Completeness, cut-off, accrual and classification — each with its evidence.

A depth-laddered library of checks, every one opening onto the ledgers and vouchers behind its verdict — on a clean pass exactly as on an exception.

Every finding exports as a working paper or a query

By handA checklist ticked from memory
In AudcrixTested, evidenced, drillable
06

Related parties mapped once, applied everywhere

Map the parties once. Every transaction then discloses itself.

Nature, relationship and value held per party and applied consistently across every transaction, with §185 loans and §188 contracts tested alongside — overrides logged with a full trail.

Ready for AS 18, §188 and §185

By handChasing directors' relatives through a spreadsheet
In AudcrixMapped once, applied everywhere
07

A forensic sweep you did not have to run

Negative cash, duplicate payments, Benford anomalies — surfaced, not searched for.

Scans across the full voucher population for the patterns a sceptical senior would hunt, with honest gap flags where data is not synced, so a blank screen is never mistaken for a clean result.

Ready for SA 240 and your review report

By handHoping something odd catches your eye
In AudcrixFlagged, with the entries attached
08

The Standards file, written as you work

Materiality, risk, sampling, confirmations and the letters — all of it, documented.

The risk register, the sample with its projection, the analytical review, the opening-balance cascade and journal-entry scoring. External confirmation letters drafted and reconciled party by party, and a management representation letter assembled from what the engagement actually found — not a template.

Ready for a reviewing partner

By handAssembling working papers the week before review
In AudcrixDocumented as it happens
09

Receivables and payables aged from Tally's own bills

Schedule III ageing that ties to the ledger — with no ageing report to chase.

Bill-wise ageing captured during the sync itself, bucketed in Schedule III format and tied back to the ledger closing, party by party. A party that must sit outside the buckets is excluded with a stated reason and stays visible as 'not aged' rather than quietly disappearing.

Ready for the ageing disclosure and CARO's long-pending questions

By handAsking the client for an ageing report, then reconciling it
In AudcrixCaptured at sync, tied to the ledger
10

Every disallowance, section by section

Each add-back listed under the section that triggers it.

Cash payments over the limit, MSME dues unpaid past the window with Udyam verified, late TDS, §14A on the correct base, §36(1)(va), §37(1) — each with the ledgers and vouchers that caused it, and a decision you can reverse.

Ready for the tax computation, each add-back evidenced

11

TDS answered deductee by deductee

Who was paid, under which section, and whether the deduction was right.

PAN-keyed and section-aware, resolving the real payee from the voucher rather than the expense head — with the §194Q turnover gate, §194R kept to review, and no invented 20% where PAN is genuinely absent.

26AS and AIS reconciled to the books

Every deductor matched, every gap named — not just a difference.

The consolidated statement, 26AS and AIS set against the books party by party, with the receivable netted signed, and the exact entry behind each mismatch identified.

The income-tax position, section by section

The sections that actually apply, with the rupee effect routed.

Applicable provisions walked against the client's own profile, §269SS/T/ST tested per ledger, the 5% cash test with transfers excluded, depreciation on the Act's basis — 1961 today, 2025 gated to FY 2026-27 without discarding an earlier working.

GST matched to what was actually filed

Twelve months of books against the returns, on one screen.

Outward supply taken from the GST register itself and every leg classified by its own tax tag — set against the GSTR-1, 2A, 2B and 3B you upload, per tax period, with reverse charge, set-off and the control account reconciled.

What landed this season.

Every item below is live for every firm today — read from the client's own books, shown with its basis, and nothing on a roadmap. The index further down carries each of them as a line.

Oct 2026Books Sync

Zoho Books, region by region

A firm whose clients keep books on zoho.in and zoho.com connects each region on its own, and a client on either lands in the same tables Tally fills — one sync, one engine.

Sep 2026Statutory Audit

The other side of the books

A client's balance with another client of the same firm is held against what that client's own synced books say, and the difference is named to the rupee.

Sep 2026TDS

How the rest of the firm treats this vendor

The TDS section every other audit in the firm applied to the same PAN, shown beside the one this audit chose.

Sep 2026Books Sync

A sync that proves itself, or blocks

A master sent without balances, a ledger renamed between two fetches, a closing the export never carried — each is caught and named before a figure is computed on it.

Sep 2026Statutory Audit

SA 315 — the risks this entity has

Risk identification named from the entity's own books — concentration, cut-off, estimates, related parties — into a register that is the auditor's document, not a computed view.

Sep 2026Statutory Audit

Bills read, matched and vouched

Drop in every bill at once. Audcrix reads each one, finds its voucher, checks amount, date, invoice number and GSTIN, and ticks what it proves.

Sep 2026Client portal

The client answers at their own door

A portal where the client answers the auditor's queries and sends the documents themselves, in place — no e-mail chain, and the firm's notes never shown.

Sep 2026Statutory Audit

Going concern read from the year the company lived

Six conditions read from what the books did — cash runway, suppliers paid later, statutory arrears, a secured loan unserviced, erosion, and what happened after year end.

Sep 2026Statutory Audit

Related parties the register forgot

SA 550 candidates found in the books themselves, tiered by the strength of the evidence, for the CA to confirm or dismiss.

Sep 2026Statutory Audit

Journal entries selected the way a CA would vouch them

SA 240 testing learns the client's own posting pattern and selects what stands out from it, with a concluded working paper.

Sep 2026Statutory Audit

Liabilities that were never accrued

Next year's books read for this year's expenses that no provision was ever made for.

Sep 2026Audit

The Audit Focus List

Five engines' findings ranked into one list, the same fact counted once, so the review starts where it matters.

Sep 2026Financials

Financial due diligence

Borrowings less cash, the working-capital peg and quality of earnings — each adjustment proposed with its evidence, and none of it decided on the buyer's behalf.

Sep 2026GST

GSTR-9 and 9C, table by table

Annual return and reconciliation workings built from the books and the filed returns, every variance placed, and a reason required before anything is exported.

Sep 2026Bank Reconciliation

Any bank statement, including a scan

Statements in any layout are read and matched to the books month by month, and the reconciliation statement is built from what did not match.

Sep 2026Fraud & forensics

The invoice booked twice

The same supplier invoice booked under two ledgers is found by the invoice number Tally already carries; customers and suppliers are held against their own year's pattern.

Sep 2026Team

A member reaches only the clients allotted to them

Per-client access enforced on every route that names a client — not only the list — and sessions that end when a member is removed.

For the firm, not just the file

The engagement file is already assembled.

Nothing lives in a folder on an article's laptop. Every working paper, finding, override and confirmation is written into the engagement as the work is done — with who did it and when.

Peer review, without the scramble

When the file is called for, it is already there: the checks that were run, the basis each one showed, the queries raised and cleared, and the trail behind every override. No reconstructing a season from a shared drive of spreadsheets.

  • Working-paper index
  • Every override logged
  • Queries and clearances
  • Retrievable years later

See the article's work as it happens

Partners and managers watch the engagement move in real time — client by client, module by module — and review in place. No status calls, no version-7 workbook arriving by email at midnight.

  • Live progress per client
  • Roles from partner to article

The practice around it

09

The firm, not only the file

  • Custom roles where the firm needs them
  • Real-time presence and revision awareness
  • Plain-language activity trail, drillable
  • Measured processing time against manual hours
  • A separate, isolated workspace per firm
  • A client portal — queries answered and documents sent at the client's own door
  • Access by client allotment, enforced on every route that names a client
  • Sessions that end, and every sign-in recorded
What it is written against

Not intelligent. Grounded.

Every engine is written against a named instrument, and every test states the provision it tests. Where a threshold or a rate moves, it moves with a citation and a financial-year gate — and the prior year’s workings stay exactly as they were signed.
