Quick Answer: TACHY School ERP offers face recognition attendance, face login, fee automation, exam and report card management, transport tracking, HR & payroll, and a parent app for Delhi schools. Pricing starts at Rs.49 per student per year with 25+ modules. Go-live takes just 3–7 days with free data migration and training included. It supports CBSE, ICSE, and State Board formats and works for schools of all sizes across Delhi.

Running a school in Delhi means dealing with long queues at the gate, manual attendance registers that eat into teaching hours, and parents constantly calling to ask about fees or exam dates. It is a lot. And honestly, most of it can be automated today without spending a fortune.

That is exactly what face recognition attendance and a full school ERP system are solving for hundreds of schools across Delhi right now. If you are a school owner or principal wondering whether this technology is affordable, practical, and worth the shift — this guide walks you through everything: features, pricing, setup time, and what to actually look for before you commit.

Why Delhi Schools Are Moving to Face Recognition Attendance

Traditional biometric systems require fingerprints, which means physical contact, hygiene concerns, and hardware that breaks down. Card-based systems get lost or shared between students. Face recognition solves both problems. Students just walk past a camera at the gate, and attendance is logged instantly — no touching, no cards, no delays.

For Delhi schools handling 500 to 5,000+ students, this means:

Gate rush drops dramatically during morning assembly hours.
Proxy attendance becomes nearly impossible.
Parents receive real-time arrival and departure notifications through the parent app.
Attendance data feeds directly into report cards and compliance reports for CBSE, ICSE, or State Board submissions.

It is not a futuristic luxury anymore. It is a practical upgrade that pays for itself within the first term through reduced manual labour and fewer disputes.

How much does a school ERP cost in Delhi?

This is the question every principal asks first, and rightly so. School budgets in Delhi are tight, especially for private schools competing in a price-sensitive market.

TACHY School ERP pricing starts at Rs.49 per student per year. That means for a school with 1,000 students, the annual cost begins at roughly Rs.49,000 — less than what many schools spend on a single month of photocopying and printed circulars.

Here is a breakdown of what that price includes:

Feature	What You Get
Face Recognition Attendance	Real-time gate automation, parent notifications
Face Login	Students and teachers access the system via facial recognition
Fee Management & Automation	Invoice generation, online payment links, reminders, receipts
Exams & Report Cards	CBSE, ICSE, and State Board format support
Transport Tracking	Live GPS tracking for school buses, route management
HR & Payroll	Staff salary computation, leave management, PF/ESI
Parent App	Attendance, fees, exams, notices — all in one place
Data Migration	Free migration of existing student and staff records
Training	Free on-site or remote training for admin staff and teachers
Modules	25+ modules included across the platform

The Rs.49/student/year price is the starting tier. Larger feature sets or custom requirements are priced transparently — no hidden costs, no per-module surprise charges.

Features That Actually Matter for Delhi Schools

Delhi schools operate under specific pressures: CBSE and State Board affiliation requirements, dense parent communities expecting instant communication, and transport logistics across a massive city. A school ERP that works in a tier-3 town may not cut it in Dwarka, Rohini, or South Delhi.

Here are the features that matter most for Delhi-based institutions:

For Administration: Automated fee collection with UPI and net banking integration eliminates the chaos of cash counters. Fee reminders go out automatically through WhatsApp and SMS. Dues tracking becomes effortless.

For Teachers: Report card generation in CBSE, ICSE, and Delhi State Board formats saves weeks of manual work during exam season. Attendance is already captured — teachers just verify and submit.

For Parents: The parent app gives a single dashboard for attendance, fees, exam results, and transport status. No more calling the school office ten times a day.

For Transport: GPS tracking on school buses is not optional in a city like Delhi. Parents want to know exactly where the bus is, and schools need route optimisation to manage fuel costs.

How long does it take to set up a school ERP system?

For most Delhi schools, the complete go-live process takes 3 to 7 working days. Here is what that timeline looks like:

Day 1–2: Data migration. Student records, staff details, fee structures, and transport routes are imported into the system. TACHY handles this free of charge.
Day 3–4: Face registration. Students and staff are enrolled in the face recognition database. This is done in batches and takes about 3–5 seconds per person.
Day 5–6: Admin and teacher training. Staff learns how to generate report cards, manage fees, and use the parent communication tools.
Day 7: Go-live. The system is live, attendance is recording, and parents can start using the parent app.

No server installation. No heavy hardware. Most schools only need a standard PC and a few USB cameras for gate attendance.

Checklist: What to Look for Before Choosing a School ERP

Before you sign up with any vendor, run through this list:

[ ] Does it support face recognition attendance, not just fingerprint biometrics?
[ ] Is pricing transparent and per-student based?
[ ] Does it handle CBSE, ICSE, and State Board report card formats?
[ ] Is data migration included free of cost?
[ ] Is training provided for admin and teaching staff?
[ ] Does it include a parent app with real-time notifications?
[ ] Is transport tracking with live GPS included?
[ ] Does it cover HR and payroll for staff management?
[ ] Can it go live within one week?
[ ] Are there 25+ modules on a single platform?

If a vendor cannot tick most of these boxes, you will end up stitching together three or four separate tools — which costs more and creates data silos.

Delhi-Specific Considerations

Delhi schools operate under the Directorate of Education (DoE) guidelines, and many also follow CBSE affiliation norms. TACHY is built to accommodate these requirements — from attendance reporting formats to fee structures and examination records. Whether you run a small nursery school in Lajpat Nagar or a senior secondary institution in Noida extension, the system scales without changing platforms.

For schools outside Delhi looking at the same solution, TACHY is available across all locations in India.

FAQ
