What a GST tax invoice must show
A registered business issues a tax invoice for each taxable supply. GST law does not fix a format, but Rule 46 of the CGST Rules lists what the invoice must contain, and this generator lays each item out for you:
- your name, address and GSTIN, and the buyer's, with the state and its two-digit code
- a serial number of up to 16 characters (letters, numbers, "-" and "/"), unique for the financial year
- the date, and for each item its HSN or SAC code, description, quantity and unit
- the taxable value after any discount, and the rate and amount of each tax
- the place of supply, the delivery address if it differs, and whether tax is payable on reverse charge
- your signature or your authorised signatory's
CGST and SGST, or IGST: the rule
Compare your state with the place of supply. In the same state, the GST rate is split in half as CGST and SGST (UTGST in Union territories without a legislature). In a different state, for an export or for an SEZ, the full rate is charged as IGST. The arithmetic for each line:
- Taxable value = quantity × rate − discount
- CGST = SGST = taxable value × (GST rate ÷ 2) ÷ 100
- IGST = taxable value × GST rate ÷ 100
Worked example
A Surat trader sells 40 sarees at ₹650 each with a 5% discount. The gross is ₹26,000, the discount ₹1,300, so the taxable value is ₹24,700. At 5% GST the tax is ₹1,235, and how it is charged depends on where the goods are delivered:
| Delivered in Gujarat | Delivered in Maharashtra | |
|---|---|---|
| Taxable value | ₹24,700.00 | ₹24,700.00 |
| CGST 2.5% | ₹617.50 | Not charged |
| SGST 2.5% | ₹617.50 | Not charged |
| IGST 5% | Not charged | ₹1,235.00 |
| Invoice total | ₹25,935.00 | ₹25,935.00 |
The rate list covers the GST slabs used since the 22 September 2025 changes: 0%, 0.25%, 1.5%, 3%, 5%, 18% and 40%. Use "Other rate" for anything else, such as an older 12% or 28% bill. Not sure which rate applies? Look it up in the HSN code and GST rate finder.
Common mistakes
- Taking the place of supply from your own state. It depends on the buyer's side: for goods, generally where they are delivered to the buyer; for most services to a registered business, the buyer's location.
- Reusing an invoice number, or restarting the series in the middle of a financial year.
- Adding reverse-charge tax into the total. The buyer pays that tax to the government, so it is shown but not collected.
- Leaving out the endorsement on export and SEZ invoices. Pick the right supply type and the generator prints it.
- Treating a printed invoice as an e-invoice. Above ₹5 crore turnover, invoices to registered buyers also need an IRN from the Invoice Registration Portal.
If goods worth more than ₹50,000 are moving, you will also need an e-way bill. The e-way bill validity calculator shows how long it stays valid.
When billing software is worth it
This generator suits a few invoices a week. If you make many bills a day, need e-invoices and e-way bills from the same data, or want GSTR-1 figures and a Tally export without retyping, a billing system built around your items and parties saves that work on every bill.

FAQ
Questions
Is this GST invoice generator free to use?
Yes. There is no signup, no limit on invoices and no watermark. The invoice is made in your browser and nothing you type is sent to our server. Your own business details are saved in your browser so the next invoice is quicker, and you can clear them with one click.
When do I charge CGST and SGST instead of IGST?
When your state and the place of supply are the same, split the GST rate in half as CGST and SGST (UTGST in a Union territory without a legislature, such as Chandigarh or Ladakh). When they are different, or the supply is an export or to an SEZ, charge IGST at the full rate. The generator switches automatically as you pick the states.
Can I make a GST invoice in Gujarati?
Yes. Rule 46 lists what a tax invoice must contain, but GST law prescribes no fixed format or language. Switch "Printed in" to ગુજરાતી and the labels, state names and amount in words print in Gujarati, while GSTINs, HSN codes and figures stay as they are.
How many digits of HSN code must my invoice show?
Four digits if your aggregate turnover in the previous financial year was up to ₹5 crore, and six digits above that (Notification 78/2020-Central Tax, from 1 April 2021). Up to ₹5 crore, you may leave the HSN off invoices to unregistered buyers. Services use 6-digit SAC codes that start with 99.
How many copies of a tax invoice do I need?
For goods, three: the original for the recipient, the duplicate for the transporter and the triplicate for you (Rule 48). For services, two: the original and a duplicate for the supplier. Choose the matching option under Copies and each copy prints on its own page with its label.
Is this an e-invoice with an IRN and QR code?
No, it is a regular tax invoice. If your aggregate turnover crossed ₹5 crore in any financial year from 2017-18, your invoices to registered buyers must also be reported on the Invoice Registration Portal to get an IRN and QR code (Notification 10/2023-Central Tax, from 1 August 2023).
What does the GSTIN check tell me?
It checks the 15-character pattern, the state code and the check digit at the end, which catches most typos as you type. It cannot tell you whether the GSTIN is active or whose it is. For that, use "Search Taxpayer" on the GST portal.
