Grocery store software
Billing software for a grocery store with one to three counters. Scan packaged goods, weigh loose grains and vegetables straight from the connected scale, track batch and expiry on dairy and bread, and reorder before the fast movers run out. Runs on NukkadShops counter machines, priced on this page, or on an Android phone with the Quik App.
The problems
Half the basket is rice, dal, sugar and vegetables sold by weight. The biller reads the scale, types a number, and the day's total never quite matches the drawer.
Perishables die on the rack because nothing tracks the batch. The loss only shows up at stock-take, by which time it is already money gone.
Stock lives in a register or in the manager's head, so reordering is a guess and the item a customer came for is the one that ran out.
One biller, two counters' worth of customers, and a basket left in the aisle by someone who did not have ten minutes to wait.
A regular sends a list on the phone, someone packs it, and the bill is made later from memory. The stock never moves and the margin is anyone's guess.
How we solve it
Barcode for packaged goods, the connected weighing scale for by-weight items, quick keys for the rest. UPI, card, wallet and cash settle on one bill through NukkadShops billing, with the GST receipt printed on the counter.
No typed weights, no wrong prices.Each perishable carries its batch and expiry in stock. The POS flags what is nearing expiry before it dies on the shelf and reports what was written off.
Expiry loss becomes a number, then a smaller one.Every sale drops stock the same second. Fast movers running low raise an alert, the purchase order to the distributor goes out from the same screen, and the inventory audit app replaces the manual count.
Fast movers stay on the shelf.Customer profiles are built at checkout, loyalty points accrue on every bill, and festival offers go out over SMS and WhatsApp. BOGO, pack discounts and free-item offers apply themselves at billing.
The household that shops weekly keeps shopping with you.Regulars order from your own branded app, which shows only what is actually on your shelves. The order lands in the same billing and stock as the counter, and the handheld NS MPOS prints the receipt at the door.
Deliver from your own storefront, not a marketplace.GST and HSN apply line by line, e-invoicing and IRN generation are built in, and GSTR-ready reports export from the sales data. No month-end re-entry.
Filing becomes a download.What it costs
Two parts: the software plan, quoted for your store by counter and store count, and the machine, priced below. Every machine runs the same grocery store software, so a second counter or a second store joins the same stock and price list.
| Run it on | Best for | What you get | Device price (+ 18% GST) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Aspire | A grocery store's single counter | 11.6-inch touch screen, inbuilt 2-inch receipt printer, ports for scanner, scale and cash drawer | Rs 30,975 (Rs 36,551 incl.) |
| Pro2 | The busy main counter | 15.6-inch full HD, Android 13, external printer | Rs 39,900 (Rs 47,082 incl.) |
| Elite-A | A checkout where the customer sees the bill build | 14-inch dual display, external printer | Rs 44,604 (Rs 52,633 incl.) |
| NS MPOS | Queue busting in the aisle, home-delivery handover | 5-inch handheld, inbuilt printer, 5,200 mAh battery | Rs 17,500 (Rs 20,650 incl.) |
| Quik App on your Android phone | A second biller in the rush, or the only one to start | Full POS on the phone you own: billing, stock, offers, loyalty | No device to buy |
Before you buy
Eight checks, in the order they bite. Ask them of every vendor, including us.
| Check | Why it matters in a grocery store | On NukkadShops |
|---|---|---|
| Weighing scale integration | Half the basket is loose goods. A typed weight is a wrong price waiting to happen. | Connected scales price by-weight items straight into the bill. |
| Batch and expiry tracking | Dairy, bread and packaged food expire quietly at the back of the rack. | Tracked per item, flagged before expiry, write-offs reported. |
| Offline billing | The internet drops at the busiest hour, and the queue does not wait. | Bills, prints and updates stock locally; syncs when the connection returns. |
| GST, HSN and e-invoicing | Month-end re-entry costs a weekend, and mistakes cost more. | Line-by-line GST and HSN, IRN generation, GSTR-ready exports. |
| Ports for your scanner, printer and drawer | You may already own them. Replacing them is a hidden cost. | USB, RS232 and RJ11 ports on the Pro2, Elite-A and Aspire; Aspire and NS MPOS have printers inbuilt. |
| Reorder alerts and purchase orders | The fast mover that ran out is the customer who went next door. | Low-stock alerts and purchase orders from the same screen as billing. |
| Room for a second store | Most chains start with store two, and re-entering everything is how they stall. | Centralised stock, one price list, one dashboard for every outlet. |
| Someone to call | A counter down at 7 pm is sales lost, not a support ticket. | Sales line +91 79970 95678, and dealers in 19 cities for demos and first-line support. |
How it works
Barcode scan for packaged goods, the connected scale for loose grains and vegetables, quick keys for what has neither a barcode nor a weight.
HSN codes and GST are applied line by line, and the running pack discount or BOGO lands on the bill without the biller remembering it.
UPI, card, wallet or cash, in one payment or several. Card and UPI settle through Pine Labs, Payswiff, PhonePe or Razorpay terminals connected to the POS.
A GST receipt prints on the counter printer. Stock drops the same second, the customer's loyalty points accrue, and a fast mover running low raises an alert.
Day-end by counter and by biller, the items nearing expiry, and GSTR-ready exports, on the dashboard or your phone. Home-delivery orders from your own app are already in the same numbers.
Which page is yours
The same NukkadShops software runs all three, but the counter looks different. A kirana or general store bills over the counter, keeps udhaar for regulars and often starts on the owner's phone. A grocery store, the shop this page is about, is self-service with one to three counters, a weighing scale at each, and perishables that need batch and expiry tracking. A supermarket or chain adds many counters, a customer-facing screen and centralised pricing across outlets.
Starting from scratch? How to set up a grocery or kirana store covers the licences, the layout and the first stock order, and the supermarket billing software guide goes deep on lane speed and multi-store control.
"GST filing used to take a full day. Now it takes 10 minutes. Simply amazing!"
Case studies
How grocery stores across India run on NukkadShops.
Sri Lakshmi General Store
Slow manual billing was losing customers at rush hour. NukkadShops Aspire with barcode scanning, automated inventory alerts and GST billing; staff trained in under 2 hours. "Even during festival rush, we handle everything smoothly. The inventory alerts alone saved us lakhs," says owner Rajesh Kumar.
FreshMart Supermarkets
Managing inventory across 5 outlets meant separate records per store, no consolidated reporting, and price discrepancies causing complaints. NukkadShops Pro2 across all outlets brought centralised inventory, unified pricing and a real-time owner dashboard. "I can see what's happening in all 5 stores from my phone," says MD Priya Sharma.
Grocery store POS software is the system a self-service grocery or departmental store bills on: it scans packaged goods, prices loose items from a weighing scale, applies GST and offers, takes UPI, card and cash, and drops stock the moment the bill prints. Because stock, expiry and reorders sit in the same system as billing, it replaces the separate billing machine, stock register and month-end GST re-entry. NukkadShops runs it on its own Android counter machines or on an Android phone through the Quik App.
For a grocery store, the best POS system prices weighed items straight from the scale, tracks batch and expiry on perishables, keeps billing when the internet drops, files GST from the sales data and does not lock you into one counter when you open a second store. NukkadShops does all five, prices its machines on this page and runs 15,000+ stores across India. Book a demo and bill your own fast movers on it.
The software plan is quoted for your store by counter and store count. The machine is priced: Aspire Rs 30,975 + 18% GST (Rs 36,551 incl.) for a single counter with an inbuilt printer, Pro2 Rs 39,900 + GST (Rs 47,082 incl.) for a busy main counter, Elite-A Rs 44,604 + GST (Rs 52,633 incl.) with a customer-facing screen, and the handheld NS MPOS Rs 17,500 + GST (Rs 20,650 incl.). Or run the Quik App on an Android phone you already own and buy no device.
Yes. Rice, dal, sugar, vegetables, sweets and other by-weight items price straight from the connected weighing scale, so the biller never types a weight or a price. Scales, barcode scanners and cash drawers plug into the USB, RS232 and RJ11 ports on the Pro2, Elite-A and Aspire.
Every perishable carries its batch and expiry in the stock record. The POS flags items nearing expiry before they die on the shelf, and what is written off shows up as a number in the report instead of a surprise at stock-take.
Yes. With Omnichannel, your regulars order from your own branded app, which shows only what is actually on your shelves, at zero commission. The order lands in the same billing and stock as the counter, and the handheld NS MPOS prints the GST receipt at the customer's door.
Yes to both. Billing, printing and stock continue on the device when the internet drops and sync the moment it returns. GST and HSN apply line by line, e-invoicing and IRN generation are built in, and GSTR-ready reports export from the sales data.
Yes. When you open the second store, both run on one dashboard with centralised stock, one price list and shared offers, and you see every counter from your phone. The same software runs 5-outlet FreshMart Supermarkets and the 1,100+ Har-Hith franchise stores.
