Quick Answer: TACHY School ERP offers Kolkata schools a complete management suite — face recognition attendance, fee automation, exam management, transport tracking, HR & payroll, and a parent app — starting at Rs.49/student/year. Schools go live in 3–7 days with free data migration and training. It supports CBSE, ICSE, and West Bengal State Board formats across 25+ modules, making it the fastest, most affordable indian school erp for Kolkata institutions.
Kolkata’s schools — whether CBSE, ICSE, or West Bengal Board — face growing administrative pressure. Manual registers, scattered spreadsheets, and disconnected parent communication create errors, delays, and compliance risks. A purpose-built indian school erp centralizes admissions, attendance, fees, exams, transport, and staff payroll in one platform. TACHY is designed for Indian workflows: multi-board report cards, GST-compliant fee receipts, UPI/QR payment links, and bilingual (English/Hindi/Bengali) parent app notifications. With 25+ modules, it replaces 5–7 standalone tools, cutting software costs by 60–80%.
Pricing is the first question every principal asks. TACHY uses a transparent per-student model:
| Plan | Price (Rs./student/year) | Key Inclusions | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | 49 | Face attendance, fee collection, exam marks entry, basic report cards, parent app, transport GPS tracking | Budget-conscious schools < 500 students |
| Professional | 79 | All Starter + HR & payroll, inventory, library, hostel, alumni, custom report cards (CBSE/ICSE/State Board), WhatsApp alerts | Growing schools 500–2,000 students |
| Enterprise | 119 | All Professional + multi-branch dashboard, API access, dedicated account manager, SLA-backed support, custom integrations | Large chains, 2,000+ students |
No hidden costs: Free data migration, free staff training (on-site or virtual), free parent app rollout. Annual billing only — no monthly lock-in. Compare this to legacy vendors charging Rs.150–300/student/year plus setup fees of Rs.50,000–2,00,000.
Not every module gets used daily. These are the ones Kolkata schools rely on:
Checklist: Does Your Current System Do These? - [ ] Face attendance for students & staff (no cards/RFID) - [ ] Auto fee reminders with UPI payment links - [ ] Board-compliant report cards (CBSE/ICSE/State) generated in minutes - [ ] Live bus tracking visible to parents - [ ] Payroll with TDS, PF, ESI, Form 16 built-in - [ ] Bilingual parent app (English + Hindi/Bengali) - [ ] Go-live in under 7 days with migrated historical data
Most ERPs take 2–3 months. TACHY’s structured rollout hits 3–7 days because:
Free migration covers 3 years of historical data (fees, marks, attendance). No IT team needed — we handle cloud hosting, backups, SSL, and updates.

Face recognition requires no hardware cards or fingerprint scanners — students simply look at a tablet/phone at the gate. It works in low light, with masks, and prevents proxy attendance. Data syncs offline. RFID cards get lost/forgotten; biometrics fail with young children’s faint prints. Face login also secures staff ERP access.
Yes. Each class-section is tagged to its board. Fee structures, exam patterns, report card templates, and promotion rules apply per board automatically. A single school running CBSE (primary) and WBCHSE (higher secondary) manages both in one instance — no separate logins or databases.
Renewal is at the same per-student rate unless you upgrade plans. No auto-escalation clauses. You’ll receive a 60-day notice before renewal with a clear invoice. Schools typically renew at 95%+ rate because the ROI is visible: 90% less manual work, 99% fee collection on time, zero report card errors.
