On Saturday last week, the Goods and Service Tax Network (GSTN) enabled the facility of E-invoice on the GST portal based on the terms of Rule 48(4) of CGST Rules (e-invoicing).
According to the earlier notifications released by the Government of India, the registered taxpayers under the Goods and Service Tax (GST) having an aggregate turnover of Rs.500 Crores (from 2017-18 onwards) have to use the E-invoice facility provided by the GSTN. Therefore for these taxpayers only was the e-invoice portal enabled at https://einvoice1.gst.gov.in/. The listing is based on GSTR-3B data, as available in GST System.
Taxpayers can search the status of enablement of a GSTIN on e-invoice portal: https://einvoice1.gst.gov.in/ > Search > e-invoice status of the taxpayer.
And if the registered taxpayers who are required to prepare invoice in terms of Rule 48(4) but are not finding the facility enabled on the portal, then they may request for enablement on the portal: ‘Registration -> e-Invoice Enablement’.
Also if any registered person who is not required to prepare invoice in terms of Rule 48(4) but still have got the facility enabled on the e-invoice portal, then they must bring the same to the notice at support.einv.api@gov.in so that necessary action can be taken.
For any more help on e-invoicing, the taxpayers can visit at https://einvoice1.gst.gov.in/ > Help.
With Warm Regards,
CL Bureau.
