Ahmedabad's Navrangpura and the surrounding areas sit close to institutions such as Gujarat University, IIM Ahmedabad and GLS University, and PGs here serve students, working professionals and freelancers alike. The range is wide: listings in the area run from around ₹10,000 a month for a basic student PG to well above ₹20,000 for premium properties, with boys', girls' and co-ed options.
With that range, getting your packages right is what decides whether you fill your beds profitably. This guide explains how hostel and PG management software in Ahmedabad helps you design clear packages, price them properly and run properties of different kinds.
Designing packages residents understand
A resident comparing PGs wants to know exactly what the rent includes. Build each package from the facilities it covers:
- Basic — room, WiFi and RO water.
- Standard — adds meals and laundry.
- Premium — adds AC, room cleaning and an electricity allowance.
Each package lists its facilities, and per-resident adjustments let you accommodate individual requests without inventing new price lists.
Pricing that covers your costs
A premium package only makes sense if it earns more than it costs to provide. Record electricity, food, salaries, cleaning and maintenance as expenses against each property, and the profit and loss report shows whether your pricing works.

If you run different kinds of properties, set each up as its own building, marked boys' or girls' where relevant, with its own rooms, residents and expenses. View them separately or together.
Students and professionals together
Students can be recorded with their academic year and pay by semester or month; working residents can leave academic year blank, use the guardian fields for an emergency contact, and pay monthly. Instalments are set per resident and shown as paid, due, overdue or upcoming.
Receipts and deposits
Every payment gets a numbered PDF receipt. Record deposits separately and check each resident's balance before they leave.
