Hi tahir,
The product was launched @ the IBM developerWorks Live!
event in Mumbai. Eventually I ended up using the
product. The interface looked pretty good and convenient to us ( as told to me by a CA)
but I had a lot of trouble installing it due to it's dependencies.
It comes bundled with a custom Linux Distro though.
Still lots of scope for improvement. Also it's closed
source and not GPL.

in India on LINUX. Launched at the IBM Developer Works Conference
across India, Kalculate is the first Financial Accounting Package for
Linux Operating System in India & Asia Pacific.
LINUX, the fastest growing Operating Systems for 3 years across the
world is the choice of tomorrow - and that tomarrow has come. No
wonder that IBM, DELL, HP/COMPAQ, SUN, HCL and others have announced
LINUX based Computers and more are in the process of doing do.
KALCULATE fills-in a very important gap, that of an important
application missing in the bunch of software that a normal user (be it
home, office, traders, business, professionals, industry & others)
requires. Users normally need an Operating system, Office Suite,
Internet-software, Audio-video-graphics software, Games and Accounting
package.
