Double-entry accounting
built for housing societies

Society accounting software is a double-entry bookkeeping system built specifically for housing societies and RWAs. Unlike general tools like Tally, it handles per-unit maintenance ledgers, sinking fund segregation, corpus fund management, and housing-society-specific compliance reports natively — without manual configuration. EstateDeck Society Accounting is one such platform, built for Indian RWAs and aligned with the GST Act 2017 ₹7,500 RWA threshold and state Co-operative Society Acts.

Yes. EstateDeck handles day-to-day society accounting with a simpler interface aimed at honorary treasurers rather than trained accountants. If your statutory auditor still prefers Tally, you can export all vouchers and ledgers as Tally-compatible XML files for their use — so the society runs on EstateDeck while the auditor consumes Tally output.

EstateDeck automatically allocates a configured percentage of each maintenance collection to a separate Sinking Fund ledger, mapped to a dedicated bank account. The system also tracks corpus fund Fixed Deposits, interest accrued, and maturity dates, keeping long-term reserves legally ring-fenced from daily operations — required under state Co-operative Society Acts.

Yes. TDS is automatically deducted when recording vendor payments under Income Tax Act § 194-IB and Section 194C rules. The system generates GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B compatible reports and alerts you when per-unit maintenance crosses the ₹7,500 / month threshold that triggers GST applicability. Challans for statutory payments can be generated directly from EstateDeck.

Yes. EstateDeck provides a read-only auditor login. Your chartered accountant can view all ledgers, vouchers, and financial reports without being able to edit any data. This eliminates the audit-season ritual of emailing Excel files back and forth between the treasurer and the CA.

Yes. Financial data is backed up daily to encrypted cloud servers. Role-based access ensures only the Treasurer, Secretary, and Auditor can view sensitive financial records, aligned with the DPDP Act 2023 for personal data. You can also export a full copy of your ledgers at any time for your own offline backup.

Register each asset in EstateDeck with its purchase cost, date, and depreciation method (Straight Line Method or Written Down Value). The system calculates annual depreciation automatically and posts the journal entry at year-end — reflecting the accurate net book value in your balance sheet without manual intervention.

Yes. EstateDeck's onboarding team helps import past member records, outstanding dues, opening balances, and asset register data via Excel templates. Most migrations are completed within the 7–10 day setup window at no extra cost.

Maintenance Billing is the collection layer — generating invoices and accepting UPI / card payments from residents. Society Accounting is the books layer — recording every payment and expense, running sinking-fund allocation, depreciation, GST/TDS, bank reconciliation, and producing balance sheets. They are connected — payments flow from Billing to Accounting automatically — but they are separate modules with separate deep pages.

Yes. EstateDeck's accounting module is configurable for state-specific frameworks including the Maharashtra Co-operative Societies Act 1960, Karnataka Co-operative Societies Act 1959, Tamil Nadu Apartment Ownership Act 1994, Telangana Apartment Ownership Act 1987, and West Bengal Apartment Ownership Act 1972. Sinking-fund percentages, election rules and audit format requirements vary by state — the system supports the format your registrar expects.
