While it +serves such traditional accounting requirements, its special feature +is that it can support emerging sectors of the economy who are being +required to keep audited accounts, such as self-help groups, craft +producers and micro-finance groups. GNUKhata is highly customisable, +given its open source nature. It can be easily transformed into Indian +languages, largely unreached by existing software solutions. GNUKhata +is soon to be extended to include a payroll section.
