AI Admission Management for Kolkata Schools: Pricing, Features & Setup

Quick Answer: TACHY SCHOOL ERP delivers end-to-end ai admission management for Kolkata schools starting at Rs.49/student/year. The platform automates enquiry-to-admission workflows, document verification, fee collection, and CBSE/ICSE/State Board compliance in a 3-7 day go-live with free data migration and training. It includes 25+ modules like face recognition attendance, transport tracking, and a parent app β€” all managed from a single dashboard.

Why Kolkata Schools Are Switching to AI Admission Management

Kolkata’s school landscape β€” spanning CBSE, ICSE, and West Bengal State Board β€” faces a common bottleneck: manual admission processes that drain staff hours, delay fee reconciliation, and frustrate parents. Paper forms, spreadsheet tracking, and disconnected communication channels create errors that compound during peak admission seasons (November–March).

ai admission management solves this by centralizing every step: online enquiry capture, automated eligibility checks, document upload with OCR verification, merit list generation, and instant fee receipt issuance. Schools using TACHY report 80% reduction in admin workload during admission cycles and zero duplicate entries across fee, transport, and academic modules.

The system is board-agnostic. Whether you follow CBSE’s RTE quotas, ICSE’s transfer certificate norms, or State Board’s domicile rules, the workflow engine adapts via configurable rules β€” no custom coding needed.

How Much Does a School ERP Cost in Kolkata?

Pricing transparency matters. TACHY’s model is per-student, per-year β€” no hidden module fees, no per-user licenses.

Plan Tier Price (Rs./student/year) Core Admission Modules Full Suite (25+ Modules) Go-Live Support
Starter 49 Enquiry, Application, Document Upload, Fee Receipt ❌ 3-7 days, free migration & training
Growth 79 All Starter + Merit List, Waitlist, Sibling Quota, Bulk SMS/WhatsApp ❌ 3-7 days, free migration & training
Pro 119 All Growth + Full ERP: Attendance (Face), Exams, Report Cards, Transport GPS, HR/Payroll, Parent App βœ… 3-7 days, free migration & training

All plans include unlimited staff logins, role-based access, and annual compliance updates for CBSE/ICSE/State Board.

For a 1,200-student school on Pro: Rs.1,42,800/year β€” less than one administrative hire.

What Features Should You Prioritize?

Not every module matters on Day 1. Focus on what removes friction immediately:

Integration With Existing Systems

Already using Tally for accounting? Biometric devices for staff attendance? Bus GPS vendors? TACHY integrates via: - Tally XML/ODBC β€” two-way voucher sync - REST API β€” push/pull student, fee, attendance data - Webhooks β€” real-time fee receipt to parent app - CSV/Excel bulk import/export β€” for legacy data cleanup

This means your CA continues in Tally, your transport vendor keeps their GPS β€” TACHY becomes the single source of truth.

Compliance & Data Security for Kolkata Schools

FAQ

### Is TACHY compliant with West Bengal State Board admission norms?

Yes. The workflow engine supports State Board-specific rules including domicile verification, income certificate validation for RTE seats, and TC/CC generation in the prescribed format. Configuration is done during onboarding β€” no development needed.

### Can we run parallel paper and digital admissions during transition?

Absolutely. The 3–7 day go-live includes a parallel run period where staff process applications both ways. This builds confidence and catches edge cases before full cutover. Most Kolkata schools switch fully digital within 2 weeks.

### What happens after the first year β€” any price hikes?

Pricing is locked for the contract term (annual renewal). No surprise increases. Renewal quotes are shared 60 days prior. Schools on multi-year plans (2+ years) get 10% discount. All updates, new modules, and compliance patches are included.
