E-invoicing is the system where your B2B invoices are registered on a government portal at the moment of issue, receiving a unique reference number and QR code. The applicability threshold has been lowered repeatedly — businesses that were outside it last year may be inside it now.
Who must e-invoice
Businesses with aggregate turnover above the currently notified limit must generate e-invoices for B2B supplies, exports and certain other documents. Check the limit each year — it changes by notification.
What changes in your workflow
- Invoices are reported to the portal (usually straight from your accounting software) and returned with an IRN and QR code
- An invoice without an IRN, where e-invoicing applies, is not a valid invoice — your buyer’s credit is at risk
- Your GSTR-1 gets auto-populated from e-invoice data, reducing manual entry
Preparing without drama
Confirm applicability against current thresholds, update your software, map your invoice fields once, and test before the go-live month. Most pain comes from last-minute adoption.
