What it is

You choose your company's country when you sign up. For a company in India, CorpHands shows amounts in rupees (₹) with Indian digit grouping (₹1,00,000), uses India Standard Time (UTC+05:30) for activity times and reports, and follows a financial year from April to March.

The country also sets the list prices you are offered and how invoices treat tax. We invoice from abroad, so no GST is added to our invoices; GST-registered companies pay it under reverse charge. The interface is in English. Hindi is planned.

What you can use it for

  • Record budgets, CSR spending and receipts in rupees.
  • Group reports, budgets and the CSR obligation by financial year (for example 2026-27).
  • Change the month your fiscal year starts if your company uses a different year.
  • Add your GSTIN so it is printed on our invoices to you. CorpHands checks its format (15 characters).
  • Use India time for activity times, reminders and audit-log filters.

Tips and good practice

  • Set the fiscal year before you record budgets and spending, because changing it changes how every report groups your data.
  • Each invoice keeps its own currency and prints in it.
  • The website has an India version at /in with prices in rupees.
  • Country notes on the website are general information, not legal or tax advice. Check local rules with your advisers.

Questions

No. India has fixed list prices in rupees. See Pricing.

Why is there no GST on the invoice?

We invoice from abroad. GST-registered companies account for it under reverse charge. Ask your tax adviser how this applies to you.

Can we pay by bank transfer?

Yes. We send an invoice and you pay by bank transfer (NEFT or RTGS). Online card payment is planned.

Not yet. It is in English today, and Hindi is planned.
