Overview

GST E-invoice, also known as electronic invoicing, is a system for issuing, processing, and reporting invoices under the Goods and Services Tax (GST) regime. This system replaces the traditional paper-based invoicing process with a digital, automated system.
The e-invoice system requires the generation of an e-invoice for each taxable supply made by a registered taxpayer. The e-invoice contains details such as the invoice number, date, GSTIN of the supplier and recipient, HSN code of goods/services, value of supply, and tax details.
"Advantages of GST E-invoicing include improved accuracy and efficiency, reduced manual effort, real-time validation, reduced risk of fraud, improved transparency and accountability, and faster processing times.

"
"E-invoicing is mandatory for businesses with a turnover of more than INR 10 crores, and optional for businesses with a turnover of less than INR 10 crores.
"
The process of issuing an E-invoice involves preparing an invoice using a GST-compliant software, generating an encrypted invoice reference number (IRN), and uploading the invoice to the GST portal. The invoice is then validated and approved by the GST portal, and a unique invoice reference number (UIN) is issued. The UIN serves as proof of the invoice's authenticity and can be used for reconciliation and reporting purposes.
Our Expert team at SureTax Fincare will provide you necessary guidance on generation of E-Invoice.

Frequently Asked Question

E-invoicing refers to the electronic generation, transmission and storage of invoices in GST. It is a digital process that replaces the traditional paper-based invoicing system.
For certain categories of taxpayers with a turnover of more than Rs. 10 crore, E-invoicing has been made mandatory in India, starting from 31st October 2022.
E-invoicing in GST involves the generation of an invoice in an electronic format, which is then transmitted to the GSTN (Goods and Services Tax Network) portal. The portal validates the invoice and returns an IRN (Invoice Reference Number) which acts as a unique identifier for the invoice. The invoice can then be stored electronically for future reference.
The benefits of E-invoicing in GST include improved efficiency, reduced cost and time, increased accuracy, enhanced compliance, increased transparency, better cash flow management, and increased security.
Taxpayers are required to use authorized software to generate invoices in the prescribed format. The software must be certified by the GSTN and must support the generation of invoices with an IRN.
The format of an e-Invoice is specified by the GST Council and must conform to the Invoice Reference Number (IRN) and QR Code standards set by the government.
An IRN (Invoice Reference Number) is a unique identifier generated by the GSTN portal for each invoice submitted through the E-invoicing system. The IRN acts as a digital signature and verifies the authenticity of the invoice.
Penalties for non-compliance with E-invoicing in GST can include fines and a possible suspension of the taxpayer's GST registration.
