Electronic Invoicing in India is part of the broader global context of countries’ adherence to the introduction of e-invoices.
Initially introduced in October 2020 for large businesses with an annual turnover exceeding 500 crore (~55 M€), the mandate for B2B and B2G transactions has been gradually decreased and currently stands at its 5th phase, covering all businesses with a turnover above 5 crore (~550 K€) as of August 2023.
Starting from September 9, 2024, the GST Council has started a pilot program for B2C electronic invoicing. In its initial phase, participation in the pilot is voluntary and limited to specific states and industries.
The mandate follows a “Clearance” model, requiring suppliers to submit their invoices in a proprietary JSON format to a central platform called Invoice Registration Portal (IRP). Invoices are expected to be stored for 5 years.
