GST Invoicing & E-Invoicing

GST Invoicing

GST Invoicing refers to the process of generating a tax-compliant invoice under the Goods and Services Tax (GST) system in India. It is a legal document issued by a registered seller to the buyer during a sale of goods or services, containing essential details like supplier and buyer GSTIN, invoice number and date, description of goods/services, HSN/SAC codes, quantity, rate, and applicable tax amounts (CGST, SGST/UTGST, IGST). Every registered taxpayer under GST is required to issue a GST invoice for taxable supplies. It serves as the basis for claiming Input Tax Credit (ITC) and ensures proper tax documentation under the GST regime.

E–Invoicing

E-invoicing , or electronic invoicing under GST, is a system where B2B invoices are digitally reported to the government on the Invoice Registration Portal (IRP) and validated with a unique Invoice Reference Number (IRN) and QR  Introduced to reduce tax evasion and streamline reporting, e-Invoicing is mandatory for businesses with an annual aggregate turnover above ₹5 crore (as of 2023– 24). Once validated, the e-invoice must be issued to the buyer and is automatically shared with the GST and e-Way Bill systems, ensuring real-time compliance and reducing manual entry errors.

e-Way Bill

An e-Way Bill is an electronically generated document required under the GST regime for the movement of goods valued above a specified limit. It is mandatory for the transportation of goods worth more than ₹50,000 in interstate movement  (between two states), and for intrastate movement (within the same state), the requirement varies by state. The e Way Bill contains details of the consignor, consignee, goods, vehicle, and origin-destination and must be generated on the GST Portal before the movement begins. It is applicable to all registered persons transporting goods by road, rail, air, or vessel and helps ensure seamless tracking, reduce tax evasion, and improve supply chain transparency.

Advantages of Creating a GST Invoice

  1. Legal Compliance: A GST  invoice ensures that the  business is compliant with the  Goods and Services Tax Act and avoids penalties.
  2. Input Tax Credit (ITC): Buyers  can claim ITC on the  GST paid if a proper invoice is issued, which improves cash flow for both buyer and seller.
  3. Transparency : It builds trust between  businesses by clearly showing the tax charged and the goods/services supplied.
  4. Accounting& Auditing: Helps in accurate bookkeeping, tax filing, audits, and financial reporting.
  5. Trackability : A proper GST invoice  helps trace the movement of goods/services and supports logistics planning.
  6. Supports e-Way Bill & e-Invoicing: It serves as the base document for generating e-Way Bills and e-Invoices for larger businesses.
