How to Upgrade Tally ERP 9 to Tally Prime

Tally ERP 9 is the most commonly used accounting and business management software. It was the first-ever accounting software made in India.

Since its introduction, many changes are being made in its features to comply with the requirements of different businesses. As Tally ERP 9 is made keeping in mind the requirements of MSMEs in India, Tally has surpassed all expectations and has the ability to adapt to any business type. This has led to over 2 million Tally users today.

After more than three decades of Tally’s existence, the iconic green colour of the software, its single window navigation system and other user experiences has had a complete makeover. On 9th November, Tally Solutions has introduced Tally Prime, which is the most significant update since the beginning of Tally in 1986.


Just like Tally 7.2 was upgraded to Tally 9 then Tally.ERP 9 and now TallyPrime, here are some revolutionary changes introduced in TallyPrime,

  • Changed appearance - you will no longer see green coloured Tally screens
  • Revamped navigation system
  • Enhanced User Experience
  • Detailed reports at a blistering speed

And much more…
