e-Invoicing: A Boon For Businesses

The Government has recently reconfirmed the e-Invoicing deadline of 1st October, 2020. None of us can relax as the date is not far away. With barely 2 months left to prepare ourselves for it, the task might seem humungous.

What You Need To Know?
  1. Turnover above 500 cr: It is Mandatory for All businesses who had a turnover of above 500 crores in 2019-20 to issue e-Invoice wef 1 October, 2020. That is, Electronic data of invoice shall have to be transmitted to Government Portal. e-Invoicing can’t be overlooked or delayed by these companies.
  2. Turnover of 100-500 cr: These assessees also need to get ready as e-Invoice shall be made mandatory for them in the next phase.
  3. Exemptions: SEZs, Banks, Financial Institutions, NBFCS, Insurance Cos, Goods & Passenger Transport Agency, Multiplexes are at present exempt from this requirement.
Why e-Invoice Is Important?
  1. Invoices without an Invoice Reference Number (IRN), a unique number identifying the invoice, would not be considered as a legal document.
  2. Non-preparedness will result in Business Disruption for the Supplier on the d-day.
  3. Besides, consequences for the issuer,it will result in huge financial loss for the buyer as he will not be able to get input tax credit of invoices not issued as e-Invoices (where e-Invoice is mandatory).
What You Need To Follow?
  1. Format. The new directions mention that the format of the e-Invoices has to be JSON
  2. Data. All the necessary fields have to be filled properly.
  3. GSTIN. Validity of both Supplier and buyer GSTIN is crucial.
  4. Invoice. Validity of both the financial year, invoice number and whether it exists in the GST system also needs to be checked.
