Implementation of GST Tax Invoicing for India #9164
Comments
Thanks for the detailed information this is helpful. Can you advise whether it is mandatory for the assignment of CGST and SGST to be displayed on the invoice itself? The tricky part from our side would be for example: 100 @ 5% tax This would result in a tax amount of 5 which would then need to be shown as
Would it be acceptable to create a tax label CGST 2.5% - $2.50 We'd then be able to build a ruleset for India, however, for this to work we'd need to understand quite a bit more about the rules around India and whether these rules are uniform across all states. |
Can we implement this logic under the "Auto Tax" feature specific to India? |
Hi There, Yes, the tax calculation is the easy part. The only difficulty would be the display of the split tax data - but this could be managed if using a custom design implemente with a Twig Template. |
Looks Good. |
The twig engine is pending release. but once it is released, you'll be able to use conditions to display the tax data as needed on the final PDF. |
When is it expected to be released(tentatively)? Meanwhile, please create the required custom tax labels for computing IGST, CGST and SGST. I will use two separate custom invoice templates for Inter and intra-state invoices. |
Hi,
In India, VAT is replaced with GST in the year 2017. Since then there has been only one type of TAX ie., GST.
Under GST, a product can be taxed at 0% or 5% or 12% or 18% or 28%.
If the Invoice billing is happening between the two firms which are located in different states/provinces, then the full GST amount should be marked as IGST.
If the Invoice billing is happening between the two firms which are located in the same state/province, then 50% of the GST amount should be marked as CGST and the remaining 50% as SGST.
State/Province is identified from the first two characters of the GST number.
Refer to the below link calculation details:

This is a basic requirement in India for Tax invoicing. It is becoming very difficult for us to use Invoice Ninja without GST implementation. Especially when Invoicing is to be done for products with mixed tax rates and located in the same state/province.
Request the Invoice Ninja team to implement the same at the earliest. I will be more than happy to answer more queries regarding the same.
Thanks,
Hari
