History

Tally Solutions, then known as Peutronics,[2] was co-founded in 1986 by Shyam Sunder Goenka and his son Bharat Goenka.[3] Shyam Sunder Goenka was running a company that supplied raw materials and machine parts to plants and textile mills in southern and eastern India. Unable to find a software that can manage his books of accounts, he asked his son, Bharat Goenka, 23, a math graduate[4] to create a software that would handle financial accounts for his business.[5] The first version of the accounting software was launched as an MS-DOS application. It had only basic accounting functions, and was named Peutronics Financial Accountant.[6] It was known as the first codeless package, a feature that made it easy for most people to use.[5]

In 1988, the product was renamed as Tally.

In 1999, the company formally changed its name to Tally Solutions.[4]

In 2005, Tally 7.2 was launched with features designed to meet Indian value-added taxation (VAT) requirements.

In 2006, Tally launched Tally 8.1, a concurrent multi-lingual version.[7]

In 2009, the company released Tally.ERP 9, offering complete business management solution[8]

In 2015, the company launched a program called Vriddhi to certify and classify its business partners.[9]
