Design architecture for B2C e-invoicing for retailers ready: GSTN CEO

The design architecture for implementing GST e-invoicing for retailers is mostly ready and being vetted by industry experts, GST Network CEO Manish Kumar Sinha said on Tuesday. E-invoicing is already present in the B2B sector. The GST Council, in its meeting earlier this month, decided to extend e-invoice to the B2C sector on a pilot basis. Sinha said the GST department is currently in discussion with the industry for the issuance of electronic invoices for every B2C transaction. "Initially, we will do a pilot project. The design of the architecture is mostly done, and we are getting it vetted by some of the best people we have in the industry. After that, we will release a document on how to go about it," Sinha said at an Assocham event here. The threshold for businesses that would be required to issue e-invoices is in the process of being decided. "We have to give time to the industry, particularly, small mom-and-pop stores.

GSTN seeks firm to prepare roadmap for transitioning IT systems to GST 2.0

With Infosys' contract for providing technology support for Goods and Services Tax (GST) ending in September 2024, GST Network (GSTN) has started scouting for a consultancy firm to prepare the bid document for selection of a new service provider and a roadmap for transitioning the system capacity to the next level -- GST 2.0.

All GST businesses will now have to geocode their addresses: GSTN

GST Network on Friday said it has geocoded 1.8 crore addresses of registered businesses and the functionality is now live for all states and UTs. Geocoding will help in finding out the exact location of the registered entity and check bogus registrations.

GSTN empanels EY, IRIS, 2 other firms to provide e-invoice registration

GST Network has empanelled four private companies, including EY and IRIS Business, for providing e-invoice registration services to businesses. Businesses with turnover of Rs 10 crore and above are required to generate electronic or e-invoice for all B2B transactions. So far, taxpayers under Goods and Services Tax (GST) regime could use only government portal NIC to register their e-invoices. "Four private companies viz. ClearTax, Cygnet, E&Y and IRIS Business Ltd were empanelled by GSTN for providing these e-invoice registration services to all GST taxpayers of the country," GSTN said in an advisory to taxpayers. GSTN, which provides technology backbone for GST, also said empanelment of private firms would add significant capacity and redundancy to the single e-invoice registration portal which existed earlier. The end-to-end flow of a digitally signed e-invoice between sellers and buyers by integration with the GST system will lead to ease of compliance for the taxpayers. It ...
