E-Invoicing Guidelines for Taxpayers

Guidelines for Taxpayers with Turnover Rs. 50 Cr - 100 Cr on Production

The following guidelines outline important steps for taxpayers with a turnover between Rs. 50 crore to Rs. 100 crore concerning e-Invoicing and related processes.

E-Invoicing Setup

  1. GSTIN Activation: Your Goods and Services Tax Identification Numbers (GSTINs) are now enabled for e-Invoicing.

  2. Registration and Login: Registration and access to the e-Invoice system for your GSTINs are currently open.

  3. Live Invoice Registration: You can prepare and register live invoices directly on the e-Invoice portal.

  4. Bulk Tools for E-Invoice: Download E-Invoice Bulk Tools to create JSON files, which will allow the generation of Invoice Reference Numbers (IRNs).

  5. e-Way Bill Generation: e-Way bills can be generated for your IRNs.

  6. API Registration: You may also register for e-Invoice Application Programming Interfaces (APIs).

E-Invoice API Access Mechanism

Access to the e-Invoice API is available through the following methods:

  • Direct Access via Company ERPs: If you have a partnership with a company that has direct API access, you can utilize their API. As a taxpayer, you will need to generate your own username and password and use the Client ID and Client Secret provided by the partner company to gain access.

  • E-Way Bill API Access: For taxpayers who have direct access to E-Way Bill APIs, the same Client ID, Client Secret, username, and password can be utilized for accessing the e-Invoice system.

  • Through Goods and Services Tax Suvidha Providers (GSPs): Create your own username and password and partner with GSPs. You can access the API using the Client ID and Client Secret provided by the GSP.

  • Through Enterprise Resource Planning (ERPs): Generate your own username and password and collaborate with ERPs to access the API using their Client ID and Client Secret.
