The short answer
A generic medicine store runs on low prices and high volume, so every sale’s margin and every batch’s expiry matter. Bilzy Pharmacy shows each medicine’s salt, sells loose tablets from a strip, keeps batch-wise stock with the earliest expiry going first, shows the profit on each sale after discount, and builds a reorder list that compares what each distributor really charged. It runs on Windows, Android and a browser from ₹699 a year.
Most medicines carry 5% GST, so a low-price store’s bills stay simple.

Low prices only work when every rupee of margin is counted.
Affordable medicine is a service to the town. Run it like a business so it lasts.
Sell more, waste less, and know your margin every evening.
How to bill a generic medicine store on Bilzy Pharmacy
- 1
Load medicines with their salts
Pick medicines from the built-in list of over 3 lakh; each carries its salt, so the counter sees what it contains.
- 2
Enter purchases with scheme and batch
Batch, expiry, scheme and free goods on every purchase, so the real cost per tablet is right.
- 3
Bill by strip or tablet
Sell full strips or cut tablets; price, stock and profit follow per tablet.
- 4
Watch the profit
See what each sale earned after discount, and each day’s profit.
- 5
Reorder by real cost
The reorder list shows what is running out and what each distributor really charged after discount and free goods.
- 6
Clear short-expiry stock
Walk the short-expiry report and return stock to the distributor with a debit note while there is time.
Which distributor is really cheaper?
The printed rate hides the scheme. Worked out per strip, the order flips.
| Distributor A | Distributor B | |
|---|---|---|
| Rate quoted per strip | ₹40 | ₹36 |
| Trade discount | 10% | None |
| Scheme | 20 + 2 free | None |
| Paid for 22 strips | ₹720 | ₹792 |
| Real cost of one strip | ₹32.73 | ₹36.00 |
The reorder list in Bilzy Pharmacy does this sum for every medicine, from every purchase bill you have entered.

Margin habits for a low-price store
Compare real cost, not rate
Schemes and discounts change the winner. Let the reorder list do the sum.
Sell loose where it helps
A patient who needs five tablets buys five — and comes back.
Read profit daily
A day of heavy discounts shows the same evening, not at month end.
Return before expiry
A debit note raised in time is money back. A strip that expires is money gone.

Questions shopkeepers ask
Does Bilzy Pharmacy show the salt of a medicine?
Yes. Medicines from the built-in list carry their salt, so the counter can see what a medicine contains.
Can I see profit on each sale?
Yes. Bilzy Pharmacy shows sale-wise and day-wise profit after discount.
How does the reorder list compare distributors?
It compares what one unit actually cost from each distributor, with discounts and free goods worked in, not just the printed rate.
Is Bilzy Pharmacy only for small medical stores?
No. It is priced for a single counter and built for a busy one: batch-wise stock with earliest-expiry-first billing, the Schedule H1 register, trade rates for firms, a reorder list that compares what each distributor really charged, GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B files, and staff logins with roles.
Does it work without internet?
Yes. Billing, the list of over 3 lakh medicines and the reports work offline on the Windows app, and everything syncs when the line is back.
Can I bring my medicines from my old software?
Yes. Upload the medicine list or a purchase bill from Excel and it becomes stock with batch and expiry. Customer and supplier balances come in the same way.
