Gehna ERP is famous for strict compliance. SthirApp matches this by allowing you to snap live photos of pledged gold, capture customer ID cards, and record digital signatures directly on your phone's screen. You get enterprise-grade audit trails without the enterprise software clutter.
Identifying bad loans is critical. Like Gehna, SthirApp includes a 'Red Zone' dashboard that instantly flags accounts where the accumulated interest is dangerously close to exceeding the scrap value of the gold. You can act before you lose money.
A bulky ERP requires English-speaking, computer-trained staff. SthirApp supports 9+ regional languages (Hindi, Marathi, Gujarati, Tamil, Telugu, etc.). Your older staff members can run the girvi counter flawlessly in their mother tongue.
Gehna ERP requires installation, setup fees, and days of staff training. SthirApp requires a 2-minute download from the Play Store. It is so intuitive that anyone who uses WhatsApp can figure out how to log a loan.
Gehna ERP is undeniably a powerhouse. If you are running a massive jewelry showroom with multiple floors, dozens of salesmen, complex barcode inventory, and karigar manufacturing tracking, a heavy ERP is necessary. They built a girvi module to act as an add-on to this massive ecosystem.
However, for the vast majority of Sunars, Pawn Brokers, and Nidhi Companies, a full ERP is a massive burden. You end up paying for dozens of features you never use, and the software is too slow and complicated for everyday counter staff.
SthirApp flips this model. We extracted the absolute most important features a money lender needs-automatic interest calculation, Red Zone reporting, digital KYC, and WhatsApp reminders-and packaged them into a lightning-fast Android app. It is designed so that when a customer walks in, you can process their loan, capture their signature, and print a receipt in under 60 seconds.
If you want the advanced compliance and reporting of a bulky ERP, but with the speed, price (free), and simplicity of a modern mobile app-SthirApp is the clear winner.
Yes. SthirApp's Red Zone reporting identifies unprofitable loans where the accrued interest is approaching or exceeding the value of the pledged gold.
Absolutely. SthirApp allows you to capture live customer photos, ID proofs, and digital signatures directly from your smartphone, ensuring full compliance.

Yes, SthirApp supports 9+ Indian regional languages including Hindi, Marathi, Gujarati, Tamil, and Telugu. The entire interface changes to your preferred language.
SthirApp is 100% free for Android users with no setup fees or hidden charges. Gehna ERP is a premium enterprise software that typically requires a paid license.
