Hi,
Yes, they will need to look into it, we need end to end accessibility with
all screen readers in particular NVDA.
The fact that Tally has been giving the same replies to others since 2020,
means that they are not serious.
CCPD's involvement is required.
I am thinking about filing a case if necessary.

Thanks,
Saurav
Student at Brihan Maharashtra College of Commerce, Pune
