Here is the custom software development price in Dhanmondi, written out line by line. You will know what your taka pays for before you send a single advance.
Maybe you have already asked two or three places in Dhanmondi 'koto taka?' One freelancer said 40,000 BDT, and the next software house said 7 lakh. This page is the missing middle. I am RH Fardin, a senior solo developer. I price your software from a written scope of features, screens, integrations and roles. I don't price it by how expensive your address on Satmasjid Road looks. Projects start from 50,000 BDT.
About 5 years building BD business software. One senior operator, no junior handoff. 50% advance, 50% on launch. You approve the design before any code. Fixed price tied to a written scope.

There is a pattern in Dhanmondi I want to fix, and it starts with how the custom software development price in Dhanmondi gets quoted. A diagnostic centre off Road 27, a coaching centre on Road 8 and a boutique near Rapa Plaza all need the same thing. They need software that matches how their counter really runs. Yet they all get quoted as if price is one mystery figure dropped from the ceiling.
One freelancer in a Facebook group says 35,000 taka. A 'software company' with a Mirpur Road signboard says six lakh. Neither one writes down what is inside the number. So you are left guessing whether you are being underbuilt or overcharged. You cannot compare two quotes that are both just a single line.
I build the price the opposite way, from the scope up. Before I give you a figure, I ask the questions that really move it. How many people log in, and does each one see different screens? Does it need to collect payment through bKash or Nagad, or just record cash at the counter? Is it five users or fifty? Does anything need to run when the internet drops? Does it talk to your existing accounts, or does it stand alone?
Each answer maps to hours, and the hours map to taka. At the end you don't get a bare line like 'custom software development price dhanmondi: 1,50,000'. You get a one-page breakdown. Every line is a feature you asked for, and you can cut any line if the budget is tight.
The number can be honest because there is no agency tax buried in it. There is no project manager salary, no salesman's commission and no second-floor office in Dhanmondi to pay rent on. You talk to the person writing the code, and you pay for the code. That's it.
I have done exactly this for Bangladeshi businesses for around five years. I take a small number of projects at a time on purpose. So the price reflects real senior hours, not a room full of juniors billed at a markup.
The floors are fixed and quoted in BDT. The smallest project is 50,000 BDT, for a single focused tool. Tighter business systems sit in the 90,000 and 1,50,000 BDT tiers, depending on scope. A true custom software product starts from 3,00,000 BDT and moves with scope from there. That means a proper database, admin panel, multiple user roles, payment and SMS.
It is always 50% advance by bank transfer or bKash, and 50% on launch. You give written design approval before development begins. There is no 'discovery fee' and no maintenance retainer you never agreed to. There is no surprise change-request bill in month three either.
When the next person in Dhanmondi quotes you a flat number, ask which of these six they really priced. If they cannot answer, the number is a guess.
One person logging in is cheap. Now say your Dhanmondi clinic needs doctor, receptionist, lab and accounts to each see a different screen. Then you are paying for a real permissions engine. That single answer can double or halve the quote.
Recording cash at the counter is one price. Collecting tuition fees or patient bills live through bKash Merchant, Nagad or SSLCommerz is real integration work. It needs OTP, callback and reconciliation. So it should be its own line, not hidden in a round number.
A list of customers with search is simple CRUD. Stock across two boutique branches, or matching bKash receipts against orders, takes days of database design before a screen exists. The price follows the data, not the page count.
Automatic Bangla SMS for report-ready, fee-due or appointment reminders is one of the cheapest lines on the quote. It is also the one Dhanmondi owners value most. I price the gateway setup once, and you pay the per-SMS rate to the provider.
A web admin panel your staff open in a browser is the base price. A customer-facing Android app on top is a separate build with its own scope. Most Dhanmondi businesses need the panel first and the app later. So I quote them apart, not bundled to inflate the total.
30 days of free bug fixes come inside every quote. After that, new features are quoted as fixed-price items when you want them. They are never billed as a vague monthly retainer you forgot you signed.
Let me make the tiers concrete with Dhanmondi examples, because 'starts from 50,000 BDT' means nothing until you can picture it. At 50,000 to 90,000 BDT you get one focused tool that replaces one painful spreadsheet or register. It could be a patient registration and report delivery screen for a small diagnostic chamber. It could be a fee and attendance tracker for one coaching centre branch, or a simple POS and stock screen for a boutique.
That tool has one or two roles and one database, with cash recorded at the counter and no live payment gateway. It runs on a small VPS. It will not have a customer app or three integrations, and it doesn't need them. It can still earn back its cost in a quarter by ending the nightly fight between the register and the cash drawer.
At 1,50,000 BDT you move into a proper system that ties a whole operation together. Think of a clinic with doctor-wise commission, online report delivery and bKash bill collection. Or a coaching centre with admission, results and automatic fee-due SMS to guardians. You get three to five roles, one or two integrations, and owner reports you can open from home at night. Above 3,00,000 BDT you are funding truly custom software. That means multiple modules, a customer app, several payment and SMS integrations, and data across branches.
At that level the price stops being a list item and becomes a scoping session. You walk me through the work on a Google Meet or WhatsApp video call. I write the scope and hand you one fixed figure with every line visible. Whatever the tier, the money moves the same honest way: 50% advance and 50% on launch. You approve the design in writing before any backend code. The full source code is yours on launch day, so your price buys an asset, not a lease.

These are the real questions Dhanmondi clinic, coaching centre and shop owners ask me before they commit a budget to custom software.
The honest floor is 50,000 BDT for one focused tool. Tighter business systems sit in the 90,000 to 1,50,000 BDT tiers. A full custom software product starts from 3,00,000 BDT, with a database, admin panel, multiple roles, bKash or Nagad and SMS. Your exact figure depends on user roles, integrations and whether you also need a customer app. After scoping I give you one fixed price, split into lines you can see and cut. It is never a phone guess. Payment is always 50% advance and 50% on launch.
Usually they are handing you a free open-source script, or a template already sold to ten other shops with your name swapped in. That is not custom software built around your counter. It can be fine if your need is truly tiny. But you may want code that fits how your Dhanmondi clinic or boutique really works, with one accountable senior person throughout. Then 50,000 BDT is about the floor for that to be real. Below it, a junior you will never reach again rushes it over a weekend.
Itemised, always. You get a one-page breakdown where every line is a feature with its own price. Think patient registration, bKash collection, SMS reminders, a reporting dashboard or a customer app. You see exactly what drives the number, and you can drop anything to fit the budget. A single mystery total is how you end up overpaying or underbuilt. If your custom software development dhanmondi bd quote is one line with no detail behind it, that is a red flag from anyone.
Fixed price, tied to a written scope, every time. You pay 50% advance and 50% on launch. Hourly billing punishes you when the developer is slow. The longer it takes, the bigger your bill, which is a bad incentive. A fixed price means I am motivated to scope it properly up front and ship on time. You also know the total before you commit a single taka of advance.
Fair concern. Plenty of people in Dhanmondi have paid an advance and watched the developer vanish. Three things protect you. First, I quote against a written scope you approve, so the work is on paper before money moves. Second, you sign off the real screen designs in Figma before I write backend code. Third, the second 50% is only due on launch, with working software in front of you. I am one named, reachable person with a portfolio at rhfardin.com. We can talk on Google Meet before you pay anything.
No. Those are recurring costs you pay straight to third parties, and bundling them would hide the real numbers. Hosting for a small to mid Dhanmondi business tool runs about 1,500 to 6,000 BDT per month with a provider like ExonHost or DigitalOcean. I size it to your real load and set it up. bKash and Nagad take their own per-transaction merchant cut, which you arrange under your TIN and KYC. I handle every technical part and tell you the true running cost up front.
