Pricing: What Marg Really Costs
Editions, dealer pricing and AMC
Marg is sold as per-product editions — commonly Basic ₹7,200, Silver ₹12,600 and Gold ₹25,200 one-time (pre-GST; add 18%) — with annual AMC typically 25–35% of the licence. Pricing varies by dealer, and each billing counter usually needs its own licence, so a multi-counter shop can pay several times over.
NAViCalC: ₹2,000/month (₹24,000/year) covers unlimited users and counters, all modules, AMC, updates and backups — one predictable price, no dealer-to-dealer variation.
