Vyapar is GST billing, inventory and accounting software used by many Indian mobile shops to sell phones. PhoneMistri is repair shop software: it tracks each device from intake to delivery, and bills it too.
The deciding question is how much of your counter is repair work. If you mainly sell phones and accessories and need billing, e-way bills and accounting, Vyapar is built for that. If you take devices in for repair and need job cards, technicians, estimates, approvals, parts usage and QC tied to the IMEI, PhoneMistri is built for that. Some shops run both; PhoneMistri's Tally export and GST reports keep the accounting side covered if you use only one.

We reviewed Vyapar's public pricing page and its mobile-shop billing page, and PhoneMistri's own pricing and feature pages. We compared only what those pages document. We did not create trial accounts, so undocumented features and support quality are outside this comparison.
A listed feature means the vendor publicly documents it; it does not imply that both implementations have identical limits, setup, or support. Test each product with your own repair workflow before buying.
| Factor | PhoneMistri | Vyapar |
|---|---|---|
| Repair job cards | Core workflow: intake with IMEI, accessories and condition evidence, diagnosis, estimate, customer approval, technician assignment, parts, QC, warranty and delivery on one job. | The Vyapar pages reviewed document billing, inventory, IMEI and warranty tracking and service reminders. They do not document repair job cards, technician assignment or estimate approval. |
| IMEI tracking | IMEI recorded at intake and linked to the repair, parts used, payments and warranty. | Stores IMEI numbers for each phone sold and links products to warranty periods; invoices can show brand, model, IMEI and price. |
| Free access | Permanent ₹0 plan: one technician without a separate login, up to 50 devices per month, one PC, job cards, customer records and basic invoicing. | Vyapar says its mobile app is free for Android devices for a lifetime; the desktop app is paid after a trial. |
| Published paid pricing | Paid plan prices are currently provided on request; the public page lists plan limits and inclusions. | Desktop + Mobile plans: Silver ₹4,399 per year and Gold ₹4,799 per year (listed as discounted from ₹7,499 and ₹9,099). |
| GST and accounting | GSTIN, HSN, CGST/SGST/IGST invoices, GSTR-1/3B reporting and Tally export. | GST billing, accounting module, e-way bills (10 per month on Silver, unlimited on Gold), party-wise profit and loss, and Tally export. |
| Repair status updates and invoices on WhatsApp, from the Standard plan. | WhatsApp Connect is listed on Silver and Gold. | |
| Offline use | Cloud-first, with documented offline and local-network (LAN) modes that sync later. | Vyapar says its billing software works without internet. |
| Apps | Android, iOS and web. | Mobile and desktop apps, with sync across devices on paid plans. |
| Second-hand phones | Built-in buy-sell workflow: device grading, purchase, refurbishment, sale with invoice and an inventory-backed public shop. | Sells stock items with IMEI on the invoice; the pages reviewed do not document a grading or refurbishment workflow. |

Vyapar's mobile-shop pages, checked on 11 October 2026, document GST billing, inventory, IMEI and warranty tracking and service reminders. They do not document repair job cards, technician assignment, estimates or customer approval. PhoneMistri is built around that repair workflow and also issues GST invoices.
It depends on the mix of work. For a shop that mainly sells phones and needs billing and accounting, Vyapar fits. For a shop that repairs phones, PhoneMistri fits because it tracks each device from intake to delivery, and it covers GST billing and Tally export as well.
Yes. Some shops keep Vyapar for sales billing and accounts and use PhoneMistri for repairs. PhoneMistri's GST reports and Tally export mean a repair-focused shop can also run on PhoneMistri alone.
The free plan covers one technician without a separate login, up to 50 devices per month, one PC, job cards, customer records, and basic invoicing. Review paid plans when you need higher limits or advanced workflows.
