For medical stores in India

Free pharmacy billing and stock software

Clyno Pharmacy is free billing, stock and khata software for a medical store in India — all three on one screen. Type a couple of letters and the medicine is on the bill. Photograph the distributor’s invoice, check the lines it read, and tap — the stock is in. A credit sale files itself into that customer’s khata.

Opens in your browser. Nothing to install. No card needed.

  • Type a couple of letters and press Enter. The medicine is on the bill, from the batch that expires first.
  • Loose tablets, strips or a full box. Sell 4 out of a strip of 15 and the stock and the money both come out right.
  • Cash, UPI, Card or Credit — one tap. Save with a print, or save without printing at all.
  • If the shelf is short, the bill still goes through. The count is corrected afterwards.
A day at the counter

Four jobs nobody at the counter enjoys doing

This is what the software is for. Not a feature list — the four things that take the most time or cost the most money in an ordinary week.

Typing the purchase bill at night

The distributor’s bill arrives with twenty lines on it. Every medicine, batch, expiry and MRP has to go into the computer by hand.

Photograph it. Check the lines. Tap.

The shelf and the computer disagree

The screen says four, the shelf has two. The customer waits at the counter while somebody goes to look.

The bill continues, and the count is fixed later.

Stock quietly crossing its date

A strip sits behind the rest and goes past its expiry. By the time anyone notices, the distributor will not take it back.

Every batch expiring in the next 90 days is listed.

Udhaar written in a notebook

Credit sales go into a diary. Who owes how much, and since when, is hard to say by the end of the month.

A credit bill files itself into that customer’s khata.

Stock

Your stock, entered from one photo

Take a photo of the distributor’s bill, or upload the PDF. Clyno reads each line — medicine, batch, expiry, quantity, pack notation, MRP and GST rate. Then it shows you what it read. Nothing goes into your stock until you tick it.

  • Lines it was not sure about are drawn in amber, so you check those and leave the rest. Every field is editable.
  • The pack notation does the setting up: “15X10” means 15 tablets per strip, so loose tablets sell from day one.
  • A medicine that is not in your list yet is added in the same tap. An existing one just gets the new batch.

JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC or PDF, dot-matrix prints included. Every batch keeps its own expiry and its own printed MRP. Anything at or below the minimum you set shows as Running low, and any batch expiring in the next 90 days shows as Expiring soon. If the shelf disagrees with the screen, recount that batch — the difference is saved with a reason instead of quietly disappearing.

Prescriptions

The doctor’s prescription lands on your billing screen

Doctors using Clyno in their clinic can connect with your shop. When a connected doctor prescribes, a green tray appears above your search box with the patient’s name and how many medicines are on it. Tap Fill bill and the bill is written for you.

  • The customer’s name, their phone number and the doctor’s name fill in from the prescription.
  • Dose-form words doctors write — Tab, Syp, Inj, Cap — are skipped, so “Tab Dolo 650” finds your Dolo.
  • Anything you don’t stock is listed in amber underneath, not quietly dropped from the bill.

A doctor can send up to 40 medicines in one prescription. A doctor can also invite you with a link. It is good for 30 days. Sign up through it and your shop is connected from the first minute.

Khata

The credit book adds itself up

Bill on credit and it goes into that customer’s khata by itself — there is no second step. The top of the tab carries one number: what the whole shop is owed. Customers are listed by who owes the most.

  • Record a payment in cash or UPI. The amount comes pre-filled with the full balance, so a full settlement is one tap.
  • The ledger is one list, newest first — bills in red, payments in green, each with the date and who made the bill.
  • The WhatsApp reminder is already written, politely. It opens in WhatsApp and you tap send, one customer at a time.

A credit bill needs the customer’s name or phone number, because it has to go into somebody’s khata. The same customer is recognised across bills by phone number.

Team logins

Your counter staff stop using your login

Add each person with their own name, their own 10-digit mobile number and a password. They sign in at the same page with their own number, and the shop knows which of them is standing at the counter.

  • Every bill records who made it. The name shows in the bill list and again in the khata ledger.
  • Switch a login off, reset its password, or remove it. Removing signs that person out immediately.
  • Only the owner can manage logins. A staff login asking to do it is refused by the server, not just hidden on screen.
Closing time

At the end of the day, it all adds up

What comes out of the shop on paper, and what your accountant gets at the end of the month.

Prints on the roll you already own80mm thermal, or an A5 sheet. The batch and expiry print in small type under each medicine, and a footer line of your own prints at the bottom of every bill. Bill numbers run in your own series — your prefix and a 6-digit counter, like CP-000214.
The day’s money, in five figuresTotal sales with the number of bills, then Cash, UPI, Card and Credit separately. That is the drawer count and the UPI check in one row. Clyno records how you were paid; it does not collect the money.
Cancel a bill and the stock goes backExactly where it came from, batch by batch. The cancelled bill stays in the list marked CANCELLED and drops out of the day’s totals, so the accounts still add up. Any old bill can be printed again.
A CSV your accountant can openOn regular GST: Bill No, Date, Taxable Value, GST Rate, CGST, SGST and Total — one row per tax rate per bill. It opens in Excel. It is a file for your accountant, not a filing to the GST portal.

What comes off the roll

TAX INVOICEBILL OF SUPPLYCASH MEMO

Which one prints is decided by the GST you are registered for. You choose once in Settings. Indian retail prices already include GST, so on a tax invoice the tax is worked backwards out of the MRP instead of being added on top.

Straight from the software

Numbers you can check yourself

None of these are estimates or averages. Each one is a rule the software follows, on every bill.

0

units per medicine

Box, strip and tablet are all real. Switch on the bill line and the price re-works itself.

0.00

smallest quantity on a bill

Half a strip, a quarter bottle — it bills, and the stock comes down by that much.

0

ways to record a payment

Cash, UPI, Card and Credit. One tap each, and the chosen one turns green.

0days

the expiry list looks ahead

Any batch expiring inside that window is listed, soonest first.

0

kinds of bill

Cash memo, Bill of Supply or tax invoice — picked from the GST you are registered for.

0

paper sizes

80mm thermal roll, or A5 sheet. Page margin 3mm either way.

A few more: the search starts looking after 2 letters and shows up to 12 medicines. The low-stock line starts at 10 units per medicine and you can change it. A doctor can send up to 40 medicines in one prescription and check up to 30 names at a time. A doctor’s invite link is good for 30 days. A signup code is 6 digits and lasts 5 minutes.

Getting started

Three steps, and you are billing

You do not have to move your old data first, and you do not have to finish your stock before you start.

  1. Make the shop’s accountShop name, your name, your mobile number, a password, and which GST you are registered for. The mobile number is confirmed with a 6-digit code. Email, address and GSTIN can wait.
  2. Put your stock inPhotograph the purchase bills you already have lying there. Check the lines it read, untick anything wrong, and tap. You can also type items in by hand.
  3. Start billingBill from the first day. Connect your doctors whenever you feel like it — nothing on this screen waits for them.

Using some other software right now? Start billing on day one anyway. If a medicine is not in your stock yet, the bill still goes through. The count is corrected later. A counter should never stop because the shelf and the computer disagree.

Connected doctors

When your doctors are on Clyno too

Clyno is also the software some doctors use in their clinic. Connect with a doctor you already work with and three things change at your counter.

You do not need a single doctor for this to be useful. The billing, the stock, the khata and the reports all work on their own. The doctor link is something you switch on later, with the doctors you choose.

  1. The prescription arrives typedIt lands on your billing screen in a green tray. No handwriting to read, no phone call to the clinic to check a brand name.
  2. The doctor can see what you haveWhile writing, a connected doctor sees whether a medicine is in stock, low or out at your shop — and if it is out, up to three same-salt medicines you do have.
  3. You do not have to tell them it was givenWhen you save the bill, that prescription is marked dispensed on the doctor’s screen, with your bill number and the total.
What the other side sees

A doctor sees a band. Nothing else.

Only as bands, and only doctors you have connected with. While prescribing, a connected doctor sees whether a medicine is in stock, low, or out at your shop — and if it is out, up to three same-salt medicines you do have.

Never leaves your shop

They never see your quantities, your prices, your sales or your books. Not the count on the shelf, not the MRP on the batch, not the day’s takings, not a single bill.

  • A doctor you have not connected with is refused outright — there is nothing to see.
  • Your shop’s login is a different kind of login from the doctor app, and cannot open clinic data at all.
  • Your shop’s data is only your shop’s. Every query is scoped to your own shop.
Straight answers

Questions shop owners ask

Short answers, and only about things the software does today.

Yes. Signing up is free, billing is free, stock is free — no card, nothing to install. It runs in your browser on any computer or phone.

Yes. It makes GST-ready bills (cash memo, Bill of Supply, or tax invoice with GSTR CSV), prints on 80mm thermal paper or A5, supports loose tablets, and cancelling a bill puts the stock back.

Photograph your purchase invoice — Clyno reads the medicines, batches, expiry and MRP, you confirm, done. You can also add items by hand.

Yes. Stock is held batch-wise with its expiry, and a sale always goes out of the batch that expires first, so old stock moves before it becomes a loss. The bill shows the batch the customer was actually handed.

Yes. Every credit bill goes into the customer's khata automatically. You see who owes how much, record payments (cash or UPI), and send a polite WhatsApp reminder in one tap.

Yes. Add team logins with their own number and password — no more sharing yours. Every bill records who made it, and you can switch a login off any time.

Doctors on Clyno connect with your shop. When they prescribe, the prescription lands on your billing screen — you tap it once and the bill fills itself.

No. A connected doctor only sees whether their prescribed medicines are in stock, low, or out — never your prices, sales, or books.
