Key takeaways
- Choose Vyapar if you mainly sell goods and need billing, accounting, e-invoicing, e-way bills and GST filing.
- Choose Rasko if you repair or service things and need job cards, technicians, AMC, bookings and customer updates.
- Rasko doesn’t do e-invoicing, e-way bills or GSTR returns; Vyapar isn’t built around repair job cards.
- Plenty of service businesses use Rasko for operations and an accounting tool for filing.
Quick verdict
Vyapar is billing, inventory and accounting software for Indian small businesses: traders, retailers, distributors and manufacturers. Rasko is operations software for businesses that repair, install or maintain things, such as mobile and laptop repair shops, electronics and appliance service centres, and AC, IT and AMC businesses. Both do GST invoices and stock. Where they differ is everything around the job.

How Rasko does it
We built Rasko because repair and service businesses kept telling us billing apps didn’t fit their day. They had no place for the device, the technician or the contract. If billing is all you need, Vyapar is a good product. If the job is the centre of your business, try Rasko free for 90 days.
