Never sell an expired medicine again.
Medical stores require absolute precision. Standard software cannot handle complex batch numbers, expiry dates, and Schedule H records. BBS is engineered for strict medical compliance to protect your drug license.

Built strictly for: Retail Pharmacies, Chemists, Medical Supply Shops, and Wholesale Druggists.
"Unlike General Retail, this vertical shifts focus from SKUs to Batches. One product (e.g., Paracetamol) can have multiple batches with different expiry dates and prices sitting on your shelf simultaneously."
Key Benefits
- Avoids selling expired stock with automatic POS blocking.
- Instant shelf lookup using the rackNo field during billing.
- Ready-to-audit logs for drug inspector reviews.
Generic retail software will get your drug license suspended.
If you use a standard POS system for a pharmacy, it treats a strip of Paracetamol as a single, static item. It doesn't know that you received a new batch today that expires in 2026, while the older batch in the back expires next month. When an inspector audits you, or a patient complains about an expired drug, standard software leaves you completely exposed.
Why Generic Software Fails:
- • No separation of batches (Batch A vs Batch B pricing).
- • Does not generate mandatory Schedule H/H1 registers.
- • Lacks generic salt name search for finding substitute medicines.
Real-World Use Cases
How Bharat Billing System actually performs in a medical store environment.
Case 1: The Drug Inspector Audit
Scenario: A state drug inspector walks into your pharmacy unannounced and demands to see your Schedule H1 register for the past 6 months to ensure restricted antibiotics are being sold only with valid prescriptions.
The BBS Advantage: Because you've been using BBS, every time you billed a Schedule H drug, the system automatically prompted the cashier for the Doctor's Name and Patient details. You click one button, export the Schedule H1 report to PDF, and hand it to the inspector. You pass the audit flawlessly in 2 minutes.
Case 2: The Expired Batch Block
Scenario: A new employee is working the counter. They grab a bottle of cough syrup from the back of the shelf. They don't realize the bottle actually expired 2 days ago.
The BBS Advantage: The employee scans the barcode. BBS instantly reads the batch number tied to that barcode, detects the expiry date has passed, and throws a massive red warning on the screen, physically blocking the item from being added to the bill. A disaster is averted.
