Finocket keeps the books for more than one business under a single login. Each company has its own name, GSTIN, country, invoice numbering, stock, reports and books — completely separate from your other companies. Add and switch companies from Settings → Companies.
Do I have to set anything up?
No. Your existing business automatically became your first company, with every client, invoice, expense and record intact. If you only ever run one business, nothing changes and you'll never see anything new.
How do I add another company?
- Open Settings → Companies.
- Tap Add company.
- Give it a name, plus its GSTIN and country if you have them (you can add these later).
- Save. The new company starts empty — its own clean set of books.
How do I switch between companies?
Once you have more than one, a company switcher appears in the sidebar. Pick a company and the whole app — invoices, expenses, stock, cost centres, reports, GST — shows only that company's data. Invoice numbering, the GSTIN printed on documents, and your financial statements are all per-company, so filings never mix.
Who can see which company?
Your companies are yours. A teammate or CA you invite gets access per the access you grant, and only ever sees the companies they're a member of — one business's books are never visible from another. The same wall applies to the API: an API key works inside one company per request (pin it to a company, or choose per call), and a company the key can't reach is refused.
Where do a company's entity facts live, and why does the incorporation date matter?
Each company carries its own entity facts: switch to it, then open Settings → Business Details and scroll to the Entity facts section — the date of incorporation, CIN or LLPIN, IEC, Udyam number, the month its financial year ends, and the paid-up capital or total partner contribution. Below it you can list that company's partners and directors (and mark one as ceased) and record capital events such as a contribution or an allotment.
The incorporation date is the one to get right first. Every annual filing counts from it — the annual return, the statement of accounts, the first financial year — so the calendar Finocket builds for that company aligns on this date. Copy it from the certificate of incorporation rather than from memory.
A blank field means not stated, never a default: Finocket will not guess a contribution or a year end for you. If the section ever shows a notice that the facts are not available, the workspace cannot read them at that moment and the form stays disabled rather than showing an empty form that cannot save — since 7 September 2026 every workspace can read them. An invalid CIN or IEC is named under its own field when you save.
Can I see all my companies together?
Yes. Open Reports → Consolidated statements for a grouped Trial Balance, Profit & Loss and Balance Sheet across the companies you pick — matched account by account, with a column for each company beside the combined total, so you can see what every business contributed. Tick or untick companies to change the group; the default includes every company you can read.
It's read-only and rides the same access wall — a teammate or CA only ever consolidates the companies they're a member of. Consolidation needs two or more companies, all on the same base currency; if your companies use different base currencies the report says so rather than adding amounts that don't compare. Inter-company balances are shown as-is (no eliminations yet).
