Key Features
How GST (CGST + SGST / IGST) shapes invoices in India
India runs a dual Goods and Services Tax: intra-state sales carry CGST plus SGST, while inter-state sales carry a single IGST. Rates fall into 5%, 12%, 18% and 28% slabs, and most consulting, software and professional services sit at 18%.
A tax invoice must show the supplier and recipient GSTIN, a consecutive serial number, the HSN code for goods or SAC code for services, the place of supply, and separate CGST/SGST or IGST columns.
Worked example. A ₹1,00,000 software consulting invoice raised from Bengaluru to a client in Mumbai attracts 18% IGST of ₹18,000, giving a ₹1,18,000 total. Clorefy computes this line for you and shows it in INR (₹).
Registering, filing and staying compliant when you send invoices in India
GST registration is compulsory once turnover crosses ₹40 lakh for goods or ₹20 lakh for services (₹10 lakh in special-category states), and stays voluntary below that.
Registered businesses file GSTR-1 for outward supplies and GSTR-3B for summary tax each month, or quarterly under the QRMP scheme, then reconcile annually with GSTR-9. Returns are administered by the GST Network (GSTN) and the CBIC.
E-invoicing with a government IRN and QR code becomes mandatory once turnover exceeds ₹5 crore, and Clorefy populates the GSTIN and HSN/SAC fields for you. Late GST returns attract a fee of ₹50 per day (₹20 for nil returns) plus 18% annual interest on any unpaid tax.
