GST e invoicing turnover limit

GST e invoicing turnover limit

e-Invoicing denotes electronic invoicing. Just like how a GST-registered business uses an e-way bill while transporting goods from one place to another. Similarly, certain notified GST-registered businesses must generate e-invoices for Business-to-Business (B2B) transactions.

Who must generate e-invoices?

Turnover limit

IVRs 20 crore01.04.20221/2022 – Central Tax
VRs 10 crore01.10.202217/2022 – Central Tax

The taxpayers must comply with e-invoicing in FY 2022-23 and onwards if their turnover exceeds the specified limit in any financial year from 2017-18 to 2021-22. Also, the aggregate turnover will include the turnover of all GSTINs under a single PAN across India.

If the turnover in the last FY was below the threshold limit but it increased beyond the threshold limit in the current year, then e-Invoicing would apply from the beginning of the next financial year i.e. FY 2023-24.

Suppose, ABC ltd aggregate turnover was as follows-

FY 2017-18: Rs 15 crore
FY 2018-19: Rs 17 crore
FY 2019-20: Rs 24 crore
FY 2020-21: Rs 19 crore
FY 2021-22: Rs 18 crore

Suppose, QPR ltd started business in FY 2019-20 and earned aggregate turnover as follows-

FY 2019-20: Rs 4 crore
FY 2020-21: Rs 7 crore
FY 2021-22: Rs 11 crore

ABC Ltd shall mandatorily generate e-invoices from 01.04.2022 irrespective of the current year’s aggregate turnover as it has crossed the Rs 20 crore turnover limit in FY 2019-20.

On the other hand, QPR ltd should comply with e-Invoicing from 1st October 2022 since its previous year’s annual turnover exceeds Rs.10 crore.

Who need not comply with e-Invoicing?

However, irrespective of the turnover, e-Invoicing shall not be applicable to the following categories of registered persons for now, as notified in CBIC Notification No.13/2020 – Central Tax, amended from time to time-
