Disclosure: we make F&Bos, a Petpooja competitor. To keep this fair, we quote Petpooja's prices exactly as its own website lists them, link the source, and say plainly where Petpooja is the cheaper or better choice.
Quick answer

Petpooja's Base plan costs ₹12,000 a year plus tax. It covers cloud billing, inventory, 90+ reports, Zomato and Swiggy integration, unlimited users and terminals, and online installation and training. Captain app, kitchen display, QR ordering and Tally are in the Operations Manager bundles (₹20,000 or ₹30,000). CRM, loyalty and WhatsApp are in the Marketing Manager bundles (₹10,000, ₹20,000 or ₹30,000). All prices are yearly and exclude 18% GST. Petpooja's page doesn't say whether they're per outlet, and calls them "indicative and subject to change", so get a written quote.

Petpooja Base plan: ₹12,000 a year + tax

This is the plan most independent restaurants start on. As listed, it includes:

Good to know: "unlimited users and terminals" means you don't pay per billing counter. Petpooja's FAQ says one POS licence covers multiple billing stations.

Operations Manager: ₹20,000 or ₹30,000 a year + tax

The Operations bundles add the floor and kitchen tools full-service and busy QSR outlets usually need.

What Petpooja's price page doesn't tell you

The page is clear about features but leaves out four things that change your bill:

  1. Per outlet or per account. For a chain this decides the total. Ask for the price for your number of outlets.
  2. How bundles combine. If you need the captain app (Operations) and loyalty (Marketing), ask whether the Base plan is charged once or included in each bundle.
  3. Hardware. The page lists no hardware. Petpooja runs on Windows, Android and iOS devices you may already own; printers, tablets and cash drawers are extra.
  4. Renewal and price changes. Prices are "indicative and subject to change". Ask what the year-two renewal is, in writing.

Worked examples: what you'd pay in year one

These use only published prices. Where Petpooja's page is ambiguous, we show a range rather than guess. All figures are per year. Example 2 assumes Petpooja charges per outlet.

Example 1: one café that wants billing, inventory, kitchen display and loyalty

PetpoojaF&Bos
What you'd buyOperations Growth (KDS) + Marketing Core (loyalty)Pro plan
Price before GST₹30,000 to ₹42,000*₹15,000
With 18% GST₹35,400 to ₹49,560₹17,700

*₹30,000 if the Base plan is counted once across both bundles; ₹42,000 if Base (₹12,000) is charged on top.

Example 2: three small outlets that only need billing and inventory

PetpoojaF&Bos
What you'd buyBase plan × 3Pro plan × 3 (menu over 50 items)
Price before GST₹36,000₹45,000
With 18% GST₹42,480₹53,100

Here Petpooja is cheaper, by ₹9,000 a year before GST, if its Base price is per outlet. F&Bos Pro also includes kitchen display, CRM, loyalty and payroll. Those cost extra on Petpooja, but if you don't need them, Petpooja wins on price.

One F&Bos footnote: F&Bos Basic (₹6,000/outlet/year) is cheaper still but limited to 50 menu items. With the Inventory pack (₹3,500/year) it's ₹9,500 per outlet, or ₹28,500 for three, for very small menus.
