NigraanEverything the counter and the office need
Built around how a Pakistani pharmacy actually runs
What Nigraan does inside the pharmacy, and what it puts on the owner’s phone.
Billing keeps working even when the internet is down. Nigraan runs on your own computer first, so a dead connection never stops a sale.
Built for the counter: keyboard shortcuts for everything, barcode scanning, and batch-wise prices picked for you.
See pricing
Each batch is its own record — batch number, expiry date, and the distributor it came from.
Loose tablets and full strips stay in one count, so you are not doing the maths twice for the same medicine.
See pricing
Log every purchase the way the distributor’s invoice is written — batch number, expiry, pack and loose quantity, bonus, and both purchase and sale price on the same row.
GST and freight sit on the same invoice and the grand total is worked out for you. Turn on “make sale price the new default” and future bills pick up the new rate on their own.
The little things save the most time: type-to-search to pick a medicine, GST entered straight from the slip as a rupee amount, a per-distributor margin that can suggest each line’s sale price, and a batch whose distributor you can set later if it came in unknown.

Take a photo of the distributor’s purchase invoice and Nigraan reads it and fills in the Receive Stock rows — medicine, batch, expiry, pack and loose quantity, bonus, and purchase and sale price. You review and save instead of typing every line of a long slip.
It matches medicines to your existing catalog and clearly flags anything it cannot match, so you add it in a click.
It is an online assist. If you are offline, or it is unsure about a line, you enter the invoice by hand exactly as before — nothing is lost.

Every distributor has a different return window — 180 days, 90 days, 30 days. Nigraan alerts you against that window instead of one generic threshold.
A medicine from a 180-day distributor surfaces early enough to actually return it, while a 30-day one does not clutter your list for months.
You see what is returnable now, grouped by the distributor you have to call.
See pricing
Customer-wise balances with a running balance on every entry, so a disputed amount can be traced back line by line.
Who owes what — at a glance, without flipping through a register.
See pricing
The Udhari ledger tracks what customers owe you. Nigraan now also tracks what you owe each distributor — when you receive stock, you record how much you paid now, and the rest becomes a payable.
Each distributor has its own balance and a running ledger, so you know exactly what is due to whom, instead of guessing when the distributor’s man comes to collect.

Sales, profit and transactions on your phone, from outside the pharmacy. It is read-only — the app shows, it never changes anything.
Every screen carries a “Last updated” time, so you always know how fresh the data is.
See pricing
The owner app flags customers whose Udhari has been outstanding too long — past a number of days you set — along with the total amount pending.
Stale balances surface on your phone instead of hiding in the register, so you can follow up and recover before it turns into a bad debt. Read-only, as of the last sync.
See pricing
Run more than one pharmacy? The owner app lets you switch between branches and see each branch’s own sales, alerts and activity, with push notifications tagged by the branch they came from.
Each branch still runs on its own computer — this is about watching several shops from one phone, not billing across counters in one shop.
See pricing
A deleted bill disappears from the day’s report. In Nigraan its record stays, with who did it and when.
Your phone gets a push notification — tap it to open straight to that screen — for a salesman’s return, a bill an owner edited or deleted, a medicine running low, and a batch nearing expiry. Everything is as of the last sync, not real-time.
See pricing
Keep your team inside Nigraan: staff profiles, daily attendance, and advances (pesh-gi) with a running outstanding balance for each person.
Run monthly salaries the easy way — base pay with additions and deductions, advance recovery taken off, and net pay worked out for you.
It runs on the counter computer, and the owner sees it reflected on the phone. No separate register or notebook to keep in step.
See pricing
Backup runs continuously in the background, and the app shows you when it last ran — “Last backup: 12 mins ago”, on screen.
It is not a hidden menu option somebody has to remember to click.
See pricing
Daily sales with cash and credit split out, profit, and top-selling items.
Same numbers the owner sees on the phone, as of the last sync.

Desktop and mobile, side by side
The desktop app runs the pharmacy. The owner app is read-only — it shows, it never changes anything. Everything on the phone is as of the last sync, not real-time.

Roles & permissions
Three roles. The salesman handles the counter, a manager runs the back office — receiving stock, inventory, ledgers, cost and profit — while owner-only controls like users, settings, editing a bill and the audit log stay with the owner.
