For builders and contractors in Nepal

Every site, every crew, every running bill.

Clock your crew in at the site with a PIN, see VAT, retention, tax withheld and advance recovery on every running bill, and know what each project is earning.

Every crew, every running bill and every project, in one place.

Notebooks at the site gate, running bills worked out by hand and retention lost inside the debtor total leave you guessing what reaches the bank and whether a project is making money.

Side by side

Without XoraPro, and with it

The same day in your trade, told twice: once on paper and phone calls, once in XoraPro.

  1. The morning muster

    Without XoraPro

    The foreman writes names in a notebook at the gate, and the office copies them at month end.

    With XoraPro

    Each worker punches in at the site with a staff number and PIN, and the day lands on the timesheet.

  2. Pay day

    Without XoraPro

    Weekly wages and advances are worked out from notebooks and memory.

    With XoraPro

    An advance is kept as money owed, and one instalment comes off each pay run.

  3. The running bill

    Without XoraPro

    Retention, tax withheld and advance recovery are worked out by hand, and what reaches the bank is a surprise.

    With XoraPro

    VAT, retention, tax withheld and advance recovery are each a line, ending in what the client owes now.

  4. Retention

    Without XoraPro

    Money held back sits inside the debtor total, and nobody knows what is due back.

    With XoraPro

    Retention has its own account, and its balance is worked out from the bills and the releases.

  5. Is the job making money?

    Without XoraPro

    The answer comes after handover, when it is too late to act.

    With XoraPro

    Each project's report sets revenue against cost and shows how much of the contract is billed.

What it does

What XoraPro does for you

  1. 1 of 5

    Print a QR poster for each site, or set a shared tablet at the gate where each worker punches in with a staff number and PIN. Every shift lands on that day's timesheet, against the site where it was worked.

  2. 2 of 5

    Enter the work done this period against the bill of quantities. VAT is added, then retention, the tax withheld at source and the recovery of the mobilisation advance are each taken off on a line of their own, and the last line is what the client owes you now.

    Nepal rule The 1.5 percent withheld at source is the contract rate in section 89(1) of the Income Tax Act 2058.

  3. 3 of 5

    Each running bill puts its retention in an account of its own, apart from your ordinary dues. When the client pays it back you record the release, and the balance is worked out again from the bills and the releases.

  4. 4 of 5

    Each project's report sets its contract revenue against the costs posted to it, and shows how much of the contract is billed, the cost so far and the estimated cost to complete.

  5. 5 of 5

    A salary advance is kept as money the worker owes you, not as an expense. One instalment comes off each pay run until it is cleared.

Who it helps

Better for you, and for the people you serve

For your company

  • Every running bill lists VAT, retention, tax withheld and advance recovery, so you know what will arrive.

  • Retention held and each project's revenue against cost, worked out from what is posted.

  • Workers punch in at the site with their own PIN, so the day is recorded where it was worked.

For your clients

  • Each running bill raises a tax invoice with VAT on its own line, dated in BS and AD.

  • Every bill and payment on their account in date order, with a running balance, as a PDF.

  • What has been held back on their project, and what has been paid back, worked out from the bills.

Built for Nepal

  • Bikram Sambat first

    Today is Monday, 30 Kartik 2083, 16 Nov 2026.

  • VAT on its own line

    Every running bill adds VAT to the work done on a line of its own, unless the business is VAT exempt.

  • Nepali and English

    On the screen and on the paper, in the language each person reads.

  • Tax withheld, kept as tax paid

    The 1.5 percent the client withholds goes to its own account as advance income tax, not lost in the bill.
