Billing software for FMCG distributors
Billing software built for FMCG distributors
Last updated: 8 October 2026
Distiqo AI is billing software for FMCG distributors in India. It applies schemes and free goods on the bill, bills earliest-expiry stock first, handles cartons and pieces, checks credit limits as you bill, generates e-invoices and e-way bills, and files GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B from the same system. Billing sits inside the full Distribution OS, so every order, godown, delivery and payment is connected to the bill.
1. What FMCG distributor billing has to handle
A distributor's bill is not a shop's bill. It carries schemes, mixed units, batches, credit and statutory documents. This is what Distiqo AI does on every bill:
| On the bill | What Distiqo AI does |
|---|---|
| Schemes and free goods | Applies SKU discounts, buy-X-get-Y, quantity slabs, order-value and cashback schemes; cashback posts a credit note automatically; a scheme can be dropped from one bill |
| Batch and expiry | Bills the earliest-expiring lot first and blocks expired stock; each lot keeps its own cost |
| Cartons and pieces | Pack unit and units per pack on every item; order lines convert to pieces |
| Credit control | Checks the credit limit and stop-supply at billing; part-payments and customer advances on the bill |
| E-invoice and e-way bill | IRN generation and cancellation; e-way bill generate, extend and vehicle update, through a GSP with your NIC login |
| Formats | A4, 80 mm thermal and 58 mm slip from a bill designer, with your own numbering series |
| Challans and quotations | Delivery challans convert to invoices in part or in full; quotations convert with prices locked |
| Returns | Credit and debit notes with approval, including returns collected at the door |
2. GST from the same system
- GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B prepared from your bills, exported for the offline tool, and filed from Distiqo AI with your OTP — including paying the tax.
- GSTR-2A/2B pulled from the portal and matched to your purchases automatically, with input-credit risk flagged.
- A CA desk: observations, documents and an audit pack for each period.
3. Orders arrive from everywhere; billing is one click
Orders come from the counter, from salesmen, on WhatsApp and from shops on the Distiqo AI retailer network, and land in one queue. A WhatsApp order is read, matched to your items, checked for stock and credit, and drafted for your approval. See order management for distributors.
4. After the bill
- Pick lists, packing, van loading and trips, with cash and returns collected at the door.
- Courier shipping with Delhivery on your own account.
- Collections: overdue accounts ranked, WhatsApp reminders drafted for your approval, promise-to-pay tracking.
- Full accounts: ledgers, P&L, balance sheet and cash flow, posted from every bill.

6. Questions
What is the best billing software for FMCG distributors in India?
The best billing software for an FMCG distributor handles what generic billing apps don't: schemes and free goods on the bill, batch and expiry with earliest-expiry-first billing, cartons and pieces, credit limits at billing, e-invoices and e-way bills, and GST returns. Distiqo AI's Distribution OS does all of this in one system, together with orders, godowns, dispatch and collections.
Can the bill apply schemes and free goods automatically?
Yes. Distiqo AI applies SKU discounts, buy-X-get-Y free goods, quantity slabs, order-value and cashback schemes on the bill, and posts cashback as a credit note automatically. You can drop a scheme from a single bill.
Does it generate e-invoices and e-way bills?
Yes. Distiqo AI generates and cancels e-invoices (IRN) and generates, extends and updates e-way bills through a GSP with your own NIC login, and checks for a missing e-way bill before dispatch.
Can I file GST returns from the billing software?
Yes. GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B are prepared from your bills and filed from Distiqo AI with your OTP, including paying the tax. GSTR-2A/2B is pulled and matched to your purchases automatically.
Which bill formats are supported?
A4 invoices, 80 mm thermal and 58 mm slips, designed in a bill designer with your own numbering series. Quotations convert to bills with prices locked, and delivery challans convert to invoices in part or in full.
How do I move my data from Marg, Tally or BUSY?
Export your parties, items, stock and sales and purchase books to Excel or PDF and upload them. Exports from Tally, Marg and BUSY are recognised automatically. Your old software can keep running alongside until you switch.
