Questions shoe store owners ask about KounterPOS

KounterPOS is billing (POS) and back-office software for small and medium footwear and accessories stores in India. Cashiers bill on Android tills; owners run stock, buying, GST and staff on the web. Every sale posts a balanced double-entry journal, and books export to Tally for your CA.

Pick software built around how shoes are sold: style, size and colour on one screen, per-pair GST slabs, box barcode scanning, and billing that keeps working when the internet drops. KounterPOS is made only for footwear and accessories stores and does all of these, with UPI, card, WhatsApp bills and Tally export.

Footwear (HSN 64) is taxed per pair on the price after discount: 5% when a pair sells for ₹2,500 or less, and 18% above ₹2,500. Socks follow the same per-pair slab. Shoe polish, belts and leather goods are 18%. KounterPOS applies the slab on every line automatically, on the till and on the invoice.

Yes. Each Android till keeps an on-device database, so billing continues when Wi-Fi or mobile data drops. Bills sync to the cloud when the connection returns, so a busy Saturday or a wedding-season rush is never blocked by the network.

Yes. One style can carry dozens of SKUs. The till and stock screens use a size × colour grid, so staff pick the exact pair the customer tried on. Stock moves through purchase orders, goods receipt (maal aaya), transfers between stores and return-to-vendor.

Yes. Stock is tracked per store and warehouse, with inter-store transfers, audited adjustments and reorder lists that can be sent to suppliers on WhatsApp.
