Huh ? Tally works with double entry accounting. Where did you get the idea that tally does not follow double entry accounting ?
One of the few things about double entry accounting I remember is that deletion was not allowed. I may be wrong, though.

Double Entry accounting specifies that for every entry that is made in the accounts, there has to be 2 parts, one being the credit and the other being debit and that the total of the debits should be equal to the total of the credits. It does not say anywhere that you can not delete an entry. You are very much allowed to delete entries, though it is frowned on by all good accountants and auditors.
You are supposed to add a negative entry to achieve the same goal. Allowing deletions also allows fraud. <snip>
switch. Only problem is that there is no Indian Accounting software that is any better. So you are stuck.
So why not contribute to AVSAP?
BTW, I am yet to see Tally Linux. I doubt if the dealers or even Tally customer support would have heard of it. It is a statement that they have been making for a loooong time and can be classified with vaporware.
Is that Tally on Linux, or a Linux distro from Tally? Tally on Linux is supported on RHEL and SuSE, only, afaik.
