Pricing
₹1,499 a member, ₹799 an associate. Nothing per return.
Not per engagement, not per reconciliation, not per deliverable exported, not per return filed. Priced on the people in the practice, because that is the number a partner can state without going to look it up — and because charging by the deliverable would put somebody in the position of deciding which engagements deserve a full set of working papers.
Per signing member
₹1,499per member / month
For the people whose membership number goes on the last page. Everything in the product, every deliverable type, and the sign-off gate that will not open while a review note is still open.
- The full computation engine: reconciliation, tax, depreciation and the statutory schedules
- The arithmetic gate, and the provenance chain from any figure back to its ledger row
- Every deliverable type — audit reports, tax audit, computations, reconciliations, working papers
- Review notes, the sign-off gate and the draft watermark on anything unsigned
- Statutory work: GST against the portal statement, deducted tax against the statement, and the due-date calendar
- Rate sets for every seeded assessment year, with the checksum recorded against each computation
- Exports as documents, spreadsheets with the working and cross-references intact, and structured data
- Signed completion callbacks, so a finance system can take a reconciliation into its own records
- Unlimited clients, engagements, reconciliations, computations and deliverables — nothing is metered
Per associate seat
₹799per seat / month
The same software for the people who assemble the work. An associate can do everything up to the signature and nothing past it — which is a role boundary the product enforces rather than a discount for a cut-down version.
- The whole workspace: engagements, imports, reconciliation, working papers and tickmarks
- Prepare deliverables end to end, and respond to review notes raised against them
- The same engine, the same arithmetic gate, the same provenance — nothing is withheld by plan
- A manager seat can approve an adjustment, but never one they proposed themselves
- Cannot sign; the signing endpoint refuses on role before anything else is checked
- Read-only accounts for a peer reviewer, and client accounts scoped to one engagement, are not billed
Above fifty seats
Pricing on request
Past fifty seats the questions stop being about the software. Procurement, a security review, a data-processing agreement, single sign-on against your directory, where the working papers are stored and how the migration from whatever you run now actually happens are all decided in a conversation.
- Everything in both seat plans, without a ceiling and across offices
- Single sign-on and directory-based provisioning
- A written data-flow note for your own security and confidentiality review
- Signed callbacks and structured feeds into a finance system, at volume
- A migration plan for the engagements and ledgers you already hold, with an export you can verify
- A named person who has worked on the software
- Annual invoicing and a purchase-order flow
The arithmetic
Four members and six associates is ₹10,790 a month
That is under ₹1.3 lakh a year for the engine, the console, the statutory calendar and every export — less than one articled assistant’s stipend and travel, and small enough that it does not need a partners’ meeting. The comparison that actually decides it is not against another vendor, though. It is against the hours a practice spends reconciling in spreadsheets, and against the cost of one deliverable that came back because a figure could not be traced.
Priced on people, not on deliverables
Run as many engagements, reconciliations, computations and returns as the work needs; the price does not move. A per-deliverable charge would mean somebody deciding which engagements get a full set of working papers, and a product whose whole argument is that every figure should carry its working cannot charge more when the working is longer.
Every module on every plan
No computation, no safety check and no export format sits behind a higher tier. Putting the arithmetic gate or the provenance chain on an upgrade path would be indefensible in a product whose case is that untraceable output is the thing it prevents.
Two seats, because signing is a different act
The associate seat is cheaper because the role is narrower, not because the software is. An associate gets the same engine and the same gate and cannot sign — which is a boundary the product enforces anyway, so pricing it honestly costs us nothing.
Against the alternative
The thing being replaced is usually a spreadsheet and an evening
Most Indian practices are not choosing between two platforms. They are running a workbook for the reconciliation, a template document that somebody edited last year, a folder of downloaded statements, and an articled assistant whose actual job is retyping between the three. That is the incumbent, it appears on no budget line, and that is exactly why it survives.
| Legosphere Finance — member | ₹1,499 / member / month | GST inclusive, billed in rupees |
|---|---|---|
| Legosphere Finance — associate | ₹799 / seat / month | For the people who prepare but do not sign |
| A spreadsheet and a template | Cheap, on paper | The real incumbent — its cost is unbillable hours and the schedule that came back |
| An international audit platform | Quote only | Priced for a market where a member’s hour costs several times what one costs here |
The third row is the one that matters. A price low enough that nobody has to build a business case puts a real arithmetic gate and a real provenance trail into practices that a per-user enterprise quote would have kept them out of — and a deliverable that does not tie is something we would rather prevent at scale than charge a premium to prevent occasionally.
- Prices are in rupees and inclusive of GST. An invoice with your GSTIN is issued on every payment.
- Annual billing is charged at ten months for twelve months of service, on the same per-seat rate.
- A member seat is somebody who signs. An associate seat is somebody who prepares. Read-only and client accounts are not billed.
- Nothing is metered: clients, engagements, reconciliations, computations, deliverables, exports and callbacks are unlimited on every plan.
- There is no free tier and no self-serve trial. This software holds other firms’ client books and tax numbers, and an unpaid account holding those is a liability rather than a funnel.
- Card details are entered on the payment provider’s own page. They are never sent to us and we never see them.
Questions
What people ask about the price
Mostly two: why not per report, and what else will you charge for. The second answer is nothing.
Because it would put somebody in the practice in the position of deciding which engagements are worth documenting properly, and in the last week of a filing season that decision always goes the wrong way — which is the week it matters most. It would also make the product’s own argument incoherent: we cannot claim every figure should carry its full working and then charge more when the working is longer.
Whoever signs. If a person’s name goes on the last page of a deliverable, they are a member seat; if they prepare work for somebody else to sign, they are an associate seat. It is not a capability difference — an associate gets the same engine, the same reconciliation and the same arithmetic gate — and the software enforces the boundary regardless of what you are billed, so there is nothing to be gained by describing a signer as an associate.
No. A read-only account for a peer reviewer is free, and so is a client-role account scoped to a single engagement — which is the one you would give a client who wants to see their own working papers. Charging for the account that lets somebody check your work would be a strange thing for this product to do.
Twelve months of service charged as ten. That is the same shape the rest of the company uses and there is no separate negotiation for it.
The card form stops and a conversation starts. At that size the deciding questions are procurement, a confidentiality review, single sign-on, where working papers are stored and how migration from your current setup actually works — none of which anyone should be answering with a checkout page.
Yes. Add a seat when somebody joins and it is billed from the next cycle; drop it when they leave. A practice’s headcount moves — and it moves a great deal around an articleship cycle — so a contract that pretends otherwise just gets renegotiated badly.
Not for you. A rate agreed on a subscription is the rate that subscription renews at; a change to the list price applies to new subscriptions. Being the affordable option only works if signing early is rewarded rather than punished.
You take it. Clients, engagements, imported ledgers, reconciliations with their narrations, computations, working papers and deliverables all export, and the export is the actual record rather than a report shaped like one. That matters more here than in most categories: working papers are records a practice is required to retain for years after the engagement ends, so a vendor holding them hostage is not merely inconvenient.
