Discover if your business meets the e-invoicing turnover thresholds and how to integrate with the Invoice Registration Portal (IRP).

GSTE-Invoicing

E-Invoicing Framework

If your annual turnover exceeds ₹5 Crores in any previous fiscal year, e-invoicing is mandatory for all B2B and export transactions. Generate Invoice Reference Numbers (IRN) and signed QR codes via the government portal before dispatching goods or finalizing services.

Penalties for Missing IRNs

Invoices without a valid IRN generated from the Invoice Registration Portal are considered legally invalid under GST law. Customers cannot claim Input Tax Credit on such invoices, and you may face a penalty of ₹10,000 per invalid document.
