Replace the month-end spreadsheet ritual with one workspace: every GSTR-2B invoice matched to your purchase register, every difference explained, owned and frozen with evidence before you file.

Illustrative workspace — sample data, not customer results.
Why not a spreadsheet?
A spreadsheet holds the numbers. It cannot hold the close.
Spreadsheets are flexible and familiar, and they are not the problem — the missing review trail is. These six requirements decide whether a month can be defended after it is filed.
Spreadsheet versus GSTRecon360 across matching, evidence, IMS and e-invoice, multi-client, freeze and reports
The month needs
Spreadsheet
GSTRecon360
Matching
LOOKUPs and fuzzy rules rebuilt by hand, silently broken by the next template change.
Two deterministic passes score every pair 0–100 and keep the reason beside the invoice.
Evidence
Variance notes live in cells, comments and email threads; the trail depends on who kept it.
Reason, owner, comments and source files stay attached from upload to freeze.
IMS & e-invoice
IMS status is a report you re-check manually; cancelled IRNs are easy to miss.
IMS decisions and IRP matching sit beside the 2B result, so cancellations surface in the queue.
Multi-client
One workbook per client per month; version control is file names and folders.
Every client period is its own workspace with scoped access, roles and history.
Freeze
“Final” is a filename. Any edit can quietly change a number after review.
Freeze locks files, matches and decisions into an immutable snapshot; later changes are visible revisions.
Reports
Working papers assembled after the fact, from whatever the workbook still contains.
Working paper, difference report and ITC summary export from the frozen month, timestamped.
A spreadsheet is still the right tool for plenty of finance work. This is about the close of record.See the full seven-step close
Product tour
Five surfaces. One continuous close.
Move through the workspace without losing the invoice context — match the pair, resolve the difference, freeze the month, and keep IMS and e-invoice decisions beside the 2B result.

Core GSTR-2B reconciliation ships today. IMS and e-invoice reconciliation arrive in this release — the same workspace, the same evidence trail.
Available today
GSTR-2B vs books
Upload GSTR-2B JSON or Excel and the purchase register from your ERP. Every pair is scored and every difference carries a plain-English reason.
Guided validation before matching
20 reconciliation result categories
ITC summary + GSTR-3B table 4 support
In this release
IMS decisions
Read the IMS status on each GSTR-2B invoice and record the accept, reject, or pending decision beside the reconciliation result — so the ITC you file matches what you actually actioned.
IMS status on every 2B invoice
Accept / Reject / Pending tracked
Decisions preserved in the month freeze
In this release
E-invoice reconciliation
Match the purchase register against IRP e-invoice data, surface invoices missing from the IRP, and catch cancelled IRNs before they become exposed credit.
IRN-level books vs IRP matching
Cancelled-IRN detection
Exceptions routed like any other difference
Who it’s for
Built for the teams who own the close.
One workspace serves the practice, the tax team and the business — because the month closes the same way for all three.
The evidence trail is a by-product, not the cleanup.
Freezing a month locks the source files, the matches, the decisions, and the activity history together. Later revisions stay visible; nothing is silently overwritten.
Immutable freeze snapshot — approved state cannot be overwritten
Append-only activity history with owner, time, and request context
Timestamped working paper, difference report, and ITC summary exports
Short answers on data safety, GSTN, file formats, IMS and e-invoice, billing and cancellation.
Access is scoped to your signed-in tenant and organisation. Team members only see workspaces you add them to, the client portal is read-only, and sensitive actions are recorded in an append-only history. A deletion request suspends the account and is queued for removal by support within 30 days.
No. You download GSTR-2B yourself and upload the file. GSTRecon360 never asks for or stores GST portal credentials, and it is an independent product — not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to GSTN or the Government of India.
GSTR-2B as the portal JSON or Excel export, and the purchase register as CSV or Excel from Tally, Busy, Zoho Books, or any ERP that can produce a row-per-invoice list. Column mapping is guided on screen, and both files are validated before matching starts.
Yes, in the current release. IMS status is read from each GSTR-2B invoice so you can record accept, reject, or pending beside the reconciliation result, and the purchase register is matched against IRP e-invoice data with cancelled IRNs flagged. Every decision is preserved in the month freeze.
Plans scale with GSTIN count — Starter up to 10, Growth 11–20, Business 21–30 — and every tier includes the full reconciliation product, with monthly or yearly billing. Prices are shown excluding GST; 18% GST is added at checkout. Above 30 GSTINs, contact us for a quote.
Every account starts with a 7-day free trial, no card required: 3 GSTINs, 200 invoices a month, 1 user, 250 MB storage. Monthly plans use an authorised recurring mandate and can be cancelled any time before the next billing cycle; yearly plans are refundable in full within 7 days if unused.
