Tally Solutions and NPCI Bharat BillPay Forge a Digital Alliance to Redefine MSME Finance in India
In a major step toward building a digitally empowered business ecosystem, Tally Solutions has partnered with NPCI Bharat BillPay Ltd. (NBBL) to integrate Bharat Connect for Business directly into Tally Prime, India’s leading business management platform.
The collaboration marks a new chapter in India’s MSME digital transformation journey, where invoicing, payments, collections and reconciliation converge into one seamless, interoperable framework. For India’s 6.3 crore MSMEs, this integration represents a move away from fragmented financial processes toward a connected, real-time ecosystem that simplifies operations, strengthens compliance and enhances cash flow visibility.
A Connected, Intelligent Framework for MSME Finance
Through the Bharat Connect-Tally Prime integration, businesses can now digitize the entire financial lifecycle from invoice generation to payment reconciliation without switching between multiple systems. The result is faster settlements, fewer errors and deeper financial transparency.
Key features of the platform include:
- ERP-to-ERP Invoice Exchange: Enables direct invoice movement between systems, minimizing manual intervention and human error.
- Automated Supplier Invoice Recording: Reduces administrative workload while ensuring data consistency and accuracy.
- Instant Payment Notifications: Provides real-time payment updates, improving working capital forecasting.
- Smart Reconciliation: Automates accounts receivable and payable, creating live, error-free ledgers.
These capabilities are expected to bring transformational efficiency to small enterprises that often struggle with delayed payments, manual entries and cash flow uncertainty.
Industry Leaders Speak on the Collaboration
Ms. Noopur Chaturvedi, Managing Director & CEO, NBBL, said the integration is designed to create a unified digital backbone for small businesses:
“Bharat Connect for Business empowers enterprises with an interoperable digital infrastructure. Integrating it with Tally means MSMEs can now operate in a seamlessly connected financial environment where invoices, payments and reconciliations interact intelligently. This step will accelerate digital adoption and enhance the financial resilience of India’s MSMEs.”
Mr. Tejas Goenka, Managing Director, Tally Solutions, added that the move aligns with the company’s long-standing mission to simplify business for small enterprises:
“Our partnership with NBBL enables MSMEs to manage their entire transaction ecosystem within Tally, from invoicing to reconciliation. This gives entrepreneurs unprecedented control over their cash flows, compliance and growth planning.”
Echoing the vision, Mr. Abhishek Dalmiya, Global Head – Strategic Alliances & Developer Ecosystem, Tally Solutions, remarked:
“By integrating Tally Prime with Bharat Connect for Business, we are fortifying the digital backbone of Bharat’s enterprise ecosystem. This collaboration is about building trust, compliance and connected growth across India’s MSME network.”
Driving India’s Digital and Financial Inclusion Goals
The partnership between Tally and NBBL is not merely a technological upgrade, it aligns with national priorities such as Digital India, Make in India, and Atmanirbhar Bharat. By making enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems interoperable with banking and billing platforms, it advances the government’s agenda of ease of doing business and financial inclusion.
NBBL, a wholly owned subsidiary of the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI), has been at the forefront of driving digital payments infrastructure through its Bharat BillPay and Bharat Connect platforms. Tally Solutions, with its deep penetration in India’s SME sector, brings the reach and trust needed to scale this vision effectively.
Together, the two institutions are creating a “connected finance fabric” one that bridges policy, technology, and entrepreneurship. By simplifying financial operations and improving visibility across business transactions, the collaboration is poised to empower millions of enterprises to compete with larger corporates on both efficiency and transparency.
As India’s digital economy expands, partnerships like this will define the next frontier of growth where innovation meets inclusion and operational intelligence becomes the new driver of enterprise success.
