What is the Tally Education Version?
To buy Tally software for learning will cost near about 21000 Indian Rupee. It’s not possible for every student to buy it at this price. It’s a big amount for a student who wants it for just learning purposes.
To solve this, Tally has specially designed a version for student’s which is known as Tally Education Version.
So, Tally has introduced this education version, just to help students to learn Tally without any investment. Tally Education version is not different from Tally full version.
Actually, it’s the same software just with some restrictions. You can run any Tally in education mode. You have to just press Alt + W and your Tally education mode is ready to use.
Like a Tally full version, you have no need to login to it and it will show you reports of company & user information for the current date only or the date that you input.
As it’s an education version, so users can only add entries of 1, 2 & 31(last date of a month) of a month. This is the main or the only limitation in the education Tally.
And the rest is the same as Tally full version. You can create companies as many as you want, you can manage accounts and add stock as many as you want.

What is the difference between Tally Education Version and Tally Full Version?
If you have read this article till here, then I am sure you already got the answer to this question. But still, let me explain one more time with more clarity.
An education version is nothing different from the full version. A Tally full version with date restriction, it’s called the education version. It has the same process of downloading and installation, but activation is different from the full version.
| Tally Education Version | Tally Full Version |
|---|---|
| You can’t add entries for each day. You are only allowed to add records on 1, 2 and 31 last day of the month. | You can use it without any restriction. |
| It's completely Free, just download and activate it without any licence. There is no expiry date in the Education Version of Tally. | A full version of Tally needs an upfront cost as well as an Annual Licence renewal free. |
| You are not allowed to use the functionality of auto-bank reconciliation. | No such kind of restriction is applicable. You can use it without any restriction. |
Can we use Tally Education Version for Business use?
As business owners, we sell goods and services on a daily basis. So to manage our business, we have a need to record entries on daily basis. But as we discussed above in the education version of Tally, we are allowed to add entries only on 3 days and we can’t add records each day for the whole month.
So, I don’t think is there any business which deals on 1, 2 and the last day of the month only. So, I think you got the answer.
Conclusion
“Education version for students is a good initiative from Tally. This not only helps students, but it also helps to build an ecosystem where anybody can learn full Tally with the help of Education Version and start working on Tally.
So basically by providing an Education Version, Tally is investing in its future business. Because after learning, you need the full version of Tally to work and it helps to increase the Tally further sales.”
