What Filingo is, and how it works
Filingo is a set of 27 free, browser-based tools for Indian Chartered Accountant firms, together with Firm Desk, a paid board that tracks every client's filings each month. The tools convert TDS challan PDFs to Excel, reconcile GSTR-2B and Form 26AS, check section 43B(h) payments to MSMEs, scrutinise a Tally Day Book and more. Files are read inside your browser and are never uploaded.
Why the tools are free
Because they run in your browser, they cost almost nothing to provide, and free is already what this market expects. We would rather you use them every day and think of us when the firm needs a shared board.
What we charge for
Firm Desk. Import your client list once and each month the board lays out exactly what each client owes, from GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B to TDS deposits, returns and ROC forms. Staff click to mark progress, overdue turns red, and a finished reconciliation can tick the client's box. Pricing is flat per firm with unlimited clients: Solo ₹1,999, Firm ₹4,999 for five logins, Firm Plus ₹9,999 for fifteen, per year plus GST. We never charge per client, per GSTIN or per return.
How we build
Rules, not guesses. Each tool's logic is a plain, tested rule set: a GSTIN check digit, a section 43B(h) time limit, a cash-payment threshold. The challan reader was corrected against real ITNS 281 and 281N receipts, and it refuses to pass a challan whose breakup does not add up. Where we could not verify something, such as TCS codes under the new Act, we leave it out and say so.

Common questions
- Is Filingo really free?
- Yes. Every tool is free and can be tried without signing up. Calculators and lookups have no limit; on the file tools the first download is free and further downloads need a free login. The firm workspace (Firm Desk, fees, notices and the registers) is free for up to 10 clients. Paid plans start at ₹1,999 a year for unlimited clients, and add staff logins.
- Is it safe to use with client data?
- The tools read your PDFs, spreadsheets and Tally exports inside your own browser. They are not uploaded, so there is nothing on our servers to leak. The workspace stores only what you type in: client names and identifiers, the status you mark, the fee invoices and receipts you record, and the notices on your register (never the notice itself). It never stores documents or portal passwords. The optional AI notice drafter is the one exception: it sends the notice text you approve, with PAN, GSTIN and similar numbers replaced first, to an outside AI service. It does not use what it is sent to train its models.
- Who is it for?
- Practising Chartered Accountants, article assistants, tax consultants and accountants in India, especially sole practitioners and firms with up to about fifteen staff.
- Can I rely on the results for filing?
- Treat them as a careful first pass. Due dates are the default statutory dates and exclude extensions, the TDS code table covers common sections only, and every reconciliation, flag and certificate draft should be reviewed by the professional before anything is filed or signed.
