When you generate an invoice we save it on our servers: your business details, your buyer's details, the delivery address if you add one and the line items. That makes the share link work. Anyone who has the link can see the invoice. We keep it for 24 months. The share link then stops working and we delete the invoice in our yearly clean-up, which can be up to a year later. Don't put bank, card or UPI details in the notes. We don't contact your buyer or use their details for marketing. Enter a buyer's details only if you're entitled to share them with us for this. By pressing Generate Invoice you accept our Terms & Conditions. See our Privacy Policy.
Review all details above before generating.
Tax is calculated from the rates, HSN codes and place of supply you enter, so check them before you issue the invoice. This tool isn't tax advice: read the disclaimer.

GST rates after GST 2.0
From 22 September 2025, GST moved from four main slabs (5%, 12%, 18% and 28%) to two main rates, 5% and 18%, plus a special 40% rate for luxury and sin goods.
| Rate | Applies to |
|---|---|
| 0% | Nil-rated and exempt goods and services |
| 5% | Merit rate: many everyday and essential goods |
| 18% | Standard rate: most goods and services |
| 40% | Special rate for specified luxury and sin goods |
| 12%, 28% | Old slabs. The generator keeps them, marked old, for invoices dated before 22 September 2025 |
Some goods, such as certain tobacco products, followed a separate timeline, and a few goods have special rates. Always use the rate notified for your HSN code.

What a GST tax invoice must show
Rule 46 of the CGST Rules lists what a tax invoice must contain. The main particulars:
- Your name, address and GSTIN
- A consecutive invoice number of up to 16 characters (letters, numbers, hyphens or slashes), unique within the financial year
- The date of issue
- The buyer's name, address and GSTIN, if they're registered
- For an unregistered buyer and an invoice of ₹50,000 or more: their name, address and delivery address, with the state name and code
- The HSN code for goods or the SAC code for services
- A description of the goods or services, with the quantity and unit for goods
- The total value and the taxable value after any discount
- The tax rate and amount: CGST and SGST, or IGST, plus any cess
- The place of supply with the state name, for inter-state supplies
- The delivery address, if it differs from the place of supply
- Whether tax is payable under reverse charge
- A signature or digital signature of the supplier or an authorised person

CGST and SGST, or IGST?
Compare the state you're registered in with the place of supply. In the same state, charge CGST and SGST, each at half the rate. In different states, charge IGST at the full rate. For goods, the place of supply is usually where the goods are delivered; for a bill-to/ship-to delivery, it's the state of the party that ordered them. The generator decides from the Place of Supply you choose.
Within a state
A Pune distributor sells goods worth ₹10,000 at 18% to a dealer in Nashik. Both are in Maharashtra, so the invoice shows CGST 9% (₹900) and SGST 9% (₹900): ₹11,800 in total.
Across states
The same sale to a dealer in Bengaluru, Karnataka, is inter-state, so the invoice shows IGST 18% (₹1,800): again ₹11,800 in total.
The buyer pays the same either way. What changes is which government collects the tax and which credit the buyer claims.
Bill to, ship to: which GSTIN and place of supply go on the invoiceHSN and SAC codes on invoices
How many digits of the HSN code (or SAC code, for services) you must print depends on your aggregate turnover in the previous financial year:
| Aggregate turnover | HSN/SAC digits on the invoice |
|---|---|
| Up to ₹5 crore | 4 digits on invoices to registered buyers (B2B); optional on invoices to unregistered buyers (B2C) |
| Above ₹5 crore | 6 digits on all tax invoices |

When you also need an e-invoice or an e-way bill
- E-invoice (IRN)
- If your aggregate turnover exceeded ₹5 crore in any financial year since 2017-18, you must report B2B invoices to an Invoice Registration Portal (IRP), which returns an IRN and a signed QR code for the invoice.
- 30-day reporting limit
- Businesses with an aggregate turnover of ₹10 crore or more must report each invoice to the IRP within 30 days of its date. The IRP rejects later uploads.
- E-way bill
- Before goods worth more than ₹50,000 move, an e-way bill must be generated on the e-way bill portal.
This generator creates the tax invoice itself. It doesn't generate IRNs or e-way bills: if they apply to you, report the invoice on an IRP and generate the e-way bill on its portal.

Invoicing dealer schemes, discounts and free goods
- Discounts on the invoice
- A discount given at the time of sale and shown on the invoice reduces the taxable value, so GST is charged on the discounted price.
- Post-sale scheme discounts
- Quarter-end or target-based schemes reduce the taxable value only if they were agreed before the sale, can be linked to specific invoices, and are passed on through a GST credit note, with the dealer reversing the matching input tax credit. Otherwise, settle them with a financial credit note; the GST on the original invoice stays as it is.
- Buy-one-get-one offers
- These aren't free supplies. GST is charged on the price paid for the bundle, and the supplier keeps its input tax credit.
- Free samples and gifts
- Goods given away without any consideration generally aren't a taxable supply (supplies to related persons are an exception), but input tax credit on them isn't available.
Scheme accounting affects both your GST and your dealers' input tax credit, so confirm how each scheme is treated with your chartered accountant.
