GST on Invoices
Clorvia is built for Indian GST, so your invoices include everything a valid tax invoice needs.
How GST is split
The split depends on the place of supply (your customer’s state) compared with your firm’s state:
| Situation | Tax applied |
|---|---|
| Customer in the same state as your firm | CGST + SGST (half the rate each) |
| Customer in a different state | IGST (the full rate) |
You set the place of supply on the invoice; Clorvia applies the right split per line and totals it for you.
What appears on a compliant tax invoice
A GST tax invoice must show certain details. Clorvia captures all of them:
- Supplier name, address, and GSTIN — from your firm
- Invoice number and date
- Customer name, address, and GSTIN
- Place of supply
- HSN/SAC code per line
- Description, quantity, and unit (UQC) per line
- Taxable value per line and in total
- Tax rate and the CGST / SGST / IGST / Cess amounts
- Total invoice value (with round-off)
- Reverse charge status
Why this matters: if a tax invoice is missing required details, it can be treated as non-compliant — and your business customer may be unable to claim their input tax credit. Keeping your firm and item details accurate keeps every invoice clean.
Reverse charge
If a transaction is under reverse charge (the recipient pays the GST), mark the invoice accordingly so it’s clearly stated on the document.
Supply type
Mark whether a sale is B2B, B2C, Export, or SEZ. This affects whether a customer GSTIN is required and how the supply is treated.
Cess and round-off
- Cess — captured when an item attracts GST compensation cess.
- Round-off — the small adjustment to round the grand total to the nearest rupee.
