How to Create a Indian Invoice
Our India invoice creator is pre-configured with INR currency, 18% GST (the most common rate for services), and GSTIN fields.

What to Include on a Indian Invoice
A GST-compliant Indian invoice must include your name and address, GSTIN (if registered), a consecutive serial number, the date of issue, the recipient's name, address, and GSTIN (if registered), HSN code for goods or SAC code for services, the description and quantity of goods/services, the taxable value, the applicable GST rate (CGST+SGST for intra-state or IGST for inter-state), the total tax amount, and whether the tax is payable on a reverse charge basis.
Tips for Indian Invoicing
Ensure your invoice serial number is consecutive and unique for each financial year. Use the correct HSN/SAC codes — incorrect codes can lead to penalties. For inter-state supplies, charge IGST instead of CGST+SGST. File your GST returns regularly to avoid interest and late fees. Keep digital copies of all invoices for at least 6 years as required by GST law.
Frequently Asked Questions
What GST rate should I use on Indian invoices?
GST rates in India are 0%, 5%, 12%, 18%, or 28% depending on the goods or services. Most professional services fall under 18%. Check the GST rate schedule for your specific HSN/SAC code, or consult a CA.
Do I need a GSTIN to create invoices in India?
GST registration is mandatory if your aggregate turnover exceeds ₹20 lakhs (₹10 lakhs for special category states) for services, or ₹40 lakhs for goods. You can create invoices without GSTIN if you're below the threshold, but you cannot charge GST without registration.
What is the difference between CGST, SGST, and IGST?
For intra-state transactions (within the same state), charge CGST + SGST (both going to central and state governments). For inter-state transactions, charge IGST (goes to the central government). The total tax rate remains the same — for example, 18% GST means either 9% CGST + 9% SGST or 18% IGST.
