The problem

Every registered Indian business must produce GST-compliant invoices, and the market’s answer is a subscription. For a small shop that means renting basic invoicing forever, storing business data in someone else’s cloud, and losing access the month cash flow gets tight.

The approach

Muneem Ji, the honorific for the traditional bookkeeper, is the opposite of a SaaS: buy nothing, own everything.

  • Self-hosted by design. Docker-ready and light enough to run on a small box in the back office. The business’s data stays in the business.
  • GST-correct out of the box. CGST, SGST and IGST handled without an accountant on call.
  • MIT licensed. Free to use, modify and keep. No per-seat pricing, no feature gates, no sunset risk.

Status

Live and open source. In maintenance-and-improvement mode: the product does its job and stays shipped.
