What is E-Invoicing under GST?
E-invoicing under GST involves the generation of invoices (B2B) in a
standardized electronic format, which is then reported to the government's
GST portal in real-time. This process aims to enhance transparency, reduce
errors, and prevent tax evasion.
Applicable to every tax payer having aggregate turnover of more than Rs.
5Cr in any preceeding financial year( w.e.f 01-08-2023)

Notes
• Under the electronic invoicing system, an identification number will be issued against every
invoice by the Invoice Registration Portal (IRP).
• All invoice information gets transferred from this portal to both the GST portal and the e-way bill
portal in real-time. Therefore, it eliminates the need for manual data entry while filing GSTR-1
returns and generation of part-A of the e-way bills, as the information is passed directly by the
IRP to the GST portal.
• E Invoice Cannot be generated Backdated.
• The invoice issued to the customer must contain the IRN number and the QR Code. Along with
this, you may send the standard invoice too.
• An e-invoice cannot be partially cancelled, it has to be cancelled fully. Once cancelled, it will need
to be reported on the IRN within 24 hours. Cancellation done after 24 hours cannot be done on
the IRN and needs to be manually cancelled on the GST portal in the GSTR-1 return, before the
same is filed.
• Once an IRN is cancelled, the same invoice number cannot be used again to generate another
invoice. If used again, the IRP will reject the same.
