What is e-invoicing under GST?

"e-Invoicing" (or "electronic billing") is a system that allows B2B invoices to be electronically authenticated by GSTN. This will allow them to be used on the GST portal. Every invoice will be assigned an ID number by the Invoice Registry Portal (IRP). The GST Network manages this portal.

The portal will instantly transfer all invoice information to both the GST portal and the e-way bill portal. This portal will remove the need to enter data manually when filling out GSTR-1 forms or generating part A of e-way bills parts. The IRP automatically transmits the information to the GST portal.

How can I get an electronic invoice for my business?

These are the steps required to create or raise an electronic invoice.

• The taxpayer must ensure that the ERP system conforms to PEPPOL standards. It is possible for the taxpayer to work with the software provider in order to include the electronic billing standard (i.e. The CBIC sets minimum parameters for electronic invoicing.

There are two options available for taxpayers to generate IRNs.

1) Integration via API or GST Suvidha Providers (GSP) is possible by whitelisting the IP address.

2) Download the bulk generation tool to bulk upload invoices. To generate bulk IRNs, you can upload the JSON file via the e-invoice portal.

• The taxpayer will then need to create regular invoices using the software. All details, including billing name, address and GSTN of supplier, transaction value, applicable GST rates, tax amounts and item rate, must be provided by the taxpayer.
• Once you have selected one of the options, create an invoicing document in your ERP or billing software. You should upload the details of your invoice to the IRP via JSON file, app, through GSP or directly API. The IRP will serve as the central registrar for e-invoicing. IRP can be contacted via SMS or mobile application.
• IRP will check for duplicates and verify key details on your B2B invoice. For future reference, it will generate an invoice reference number (hash) for you. IRNs can be generated based on the following parameters: Seller GSTIN, invoice number.
• IRP creates an invoice reference number (IRN), digitally sign it, and then creates QR codes for the supplier in Output JSON. If the supplier has provided it in the invoice, the seller will be notified by email about the e-invoice generation.
• IRP will send the GST portal the GST portal's authenticated payload to be used for GST returns. If necessary, details will be sent to e-way bill portal. GSTR-1 is automatically filled for the relevant tax period. This determines your tax liability.

Taxpayers may still print their invoices using a logo. All taxpayers must submit IRP invoices electronically through the e-invoicing program.
