GST e-Invoicing is a new system introduced in India to streamline the invoicing process for businesses. It is an electronic invoicing system that helps businesses generate, validate, and share invoices digitally. The main objective of GST e-invoicing is to bring efficiency, and transparency, and reduce the compliance burden for businesses. The system will eliminate the need for manual entry of invoice data into GST returns, input tax credit reconciliation, eWay bills, and GST refunds.
Cost savings | e-Invoicing can help businesses save significant costs by reducing printing, postage, and manual processing expenses |
Efficiency | e-Invoicing can speed up the invoicing process, reducing the time and effort required for manual data entry and reconciliation |
Compliance | e-Invoicing can help reduce compliance burden by eliminating the need for duplication or transfer of information from one system to another |
Auto-population of information | With e-Invoicing, the invoice information provided to GSTN for generating Invoice Reference Number (IRN) can be used to auto-populate various other systems such as GST returns, input tax credit reconciliation, eWay bill and GST refunds |
Accuracy | e-Invoicing reduces the risk of errors and inaccuracies by eliminating manual data entry |
Ease of doing business | GST e-Invoicing significantly improves the ease of doing business by reducing the compliance burden and streamlining business operations |
Step 1: Businesses with an annual turnover of Rs. 50 crores or more must generate e-Invoices for B2B transactions starting from January 1, 2021. However, voluntary compliance was allowed from October 1, 2020.
Step 2: Businesses can generate e-Invoices using their existing accounting or billing software. The invoice will be uploaded to the Invoice Registration Portal (IRP), which will validate and generate a unique Invoice Reference Number (IRN) for each invoice.
Step 3: Once an IRN is generated, the e-Invoice must be digitally signed using a digital signature or a QR code, which contains the IRN and other relevant details of the invoice.
Step 4: The supplier must provide the e-Invoice details to the recipient either by email, SMS, or any other electronic mode. The supplier can also provide a physical copy of the invoice if requested by the recipient.
Step 5: The details of e-Invoices will be auto-populated in the supplier’s and recipient’s GSTR-1 and GSTR-2 returns, respectively. The details will also be auto-populated in the e-Way bill system, making it easier for businesses to generate e-Way bills.
1. GSTIN (Goods and Services Taxpayer Identification Number)
2. IRN (Invoice Reference Number)
3. Invoice date
4. Buyer’s GSTIN
5. HSN (Harmonized System of Nomenclature) code/SAC (Services Accounting Code)
6. Taxable value and discounts, if any
7.Tax amounts for CGST (Central Goods and Services Tax), SGST (State Goods and Services Tax), IGST (Integrated Goods and Services Tax), and Cess, if any
8. Shipping and billing address of the buyer and supplier
9. Place of supply
10. Item details – description, quantity, unit, and total value
11. Signature or digital signature of the supplier
According to Rule 48(4) of the CGST Regulations, notified classes of registered persons are required to produce invoices and upload them (in the form GST INV-01) to the Invoice Registration Portal (IRP) in order to receive an Invoice Reference Number (IRN). The invoice copy that is issued by the notified supplier to the buyer following the aforementioned “e-invoicing” process, among other things, contains the IRN (with QR Code), and is referred to as a “e-invoice” in GST. The interchange of the invoice document (structured invoice data) between a supplier and a buyer in an integrated electronic format is made possible by the standard e-invoice schema (INV-01).
Businesses can benefit from e-invoices in a variety of ways, including automatic GST reporting and e-way bill preparation (where required). E-invoicing will also make standardisation and interoperability easier, which will reduce conflicts between parties to transactions, improve payment cycles, lower processing costs, and generally increase business efficiency.
As invoice generation will take place on the business end, this can be incorporated into the seller’s ERP or invoicing system. This feature is offered by the majority of such software under the names item master, supplier master, buyer master, etc.
No, the same invoice number cannot be used to create a new invoice once an IRN has been cancelled. The IRP will reject the same if it is used again.
Small businesses may be exempt from GST e-Invoicing if their annual turnover falls below the threshold specified by the government.
The GST e-Invoicing system is designed with security in mind. Data transmission and storage follow strict security protocols to protect sensitive business information.
