About Pathshala ERP
Our mission: digitise every Indian school with affordable, powerful technology.
Our Story
Pathshala ERP was born from a simple observation: India has over 1.5 million schools, and most of them still run on paper registers, Excel spreadsheets, and disconnected tools.
We set out to build school management software that was truly built for India — supporting every board (CBSE, ICSE, and all state boards), every language (10+), every payment method (UPI, cards, net banking), and every school size (50 students to 5,000+).
Today, 1,200+ schools trust Pathshala ERP to manage their daily operations, and we're just getting started.
What We Believe
🎯 Schools First
Every feature we build solves a real problem that real schools face. We don't build for demos — we build for daily use.
💡 Simple Over Complex
A computer teacher should be able to set up the system. If it needs an IT team, we've failed.
🇮🇳 Built for India
Not a global product localised for India. Built from scratch for Indian boards, languages, payment methods, and regulations.
🤝 Real Support
Every school gets a named account manager. We respond on WhatsApp because that's how India communicates.
By the Numbers
