Every Tally user sometime stuck somewhere doing his work on Tally and he needs help. Help can be from many quarters but it depends on how the user likes to take help. If you are using original Tally then you have official channels to get help and perhaps these are the best help you can take. There are always ways to pick your phone and call Tally about your problem or call you friend or teacher for help. But I am talking about free Help!! The help in which you need not to spend a single penny. Not even on your phone.
Here are these channels
1. Tally Inbuilt Help
This is the first and most easily available tool with you when you stuck some where while doing your work on Tally. Tally has inbuilt help which can be accessed by pressing Alt+H.

Find the chm file in download section of Tally site under Document section by the name of Tally reference manual.
