Quick Summary
When purchasing Tally software, it should be treated as a capitalised intangible asset rather than an immediate expense. The cost should be recorded as an asset in the company's books and then amortised over its useful life. If the pattern of consumption cannot be clearly established, Straight-Line Method (SLM) amortisation should be applied.

It is capitalised. 

Tally a/c - asset

To Bank a/c

then it is amortised as per the pattern of consumption. When one can’t establish it, use SLM amortisation.

Tally software is an intangible asset.

It should be capitalised.
