GST billing software

The tax split is not a question you should be asked twice

Whether a bill carries CGST and SGST or a single IGST line depends on where the supply goes. Aned Book reads that from the customer's state and applies it — so an intra-state sale splits in half and an inter-state sale does not, without anybody choosing on a busy counter.

Each component is rounded to paise on its own line before the lines are totalled, so the figures on the paper add up exactly and the round-off line reconciles. You can watch the same arithmetic work on our free GST calculator — it runs this software's own engine.

A tax invoice a GST officer recognises

The printed bill carries what the rules ask for: your GSTIN, the place of supply, the supply type, HSN or SAC per line, a rate-wise tax summary, the amount in words in Indian numbering, and your declaration and signature block. It prints on A4 or A5, portrait or landscape, and on a thermal roll.

The returns come out of the bills

Because the bills are the source, the returns are a reading of them rather than a second data entry: tax liability, GSTR-1 B2B and B2C, GSTR-2, GSTR-3B, an HSN summary and a 2B reconciliation. Export what you need and file it.

GST numbers are checked as they are typed

A customer's GSTIN is validated for its pattern, its state code, the PAN inside it and the official mod-36 check digit — the last of which is what actually catches a typo. A wrong GSTIN puts an invoice in the wrong table of GSTR-1 and can cost your customer their input credit. There is a free GST number checker on this site running the same check.

What it costs

₹4,500 + GST for Lite, which is sale billing; ₹9,000 + GST for Basic, which adds purchases, stock, batches and the GST returns. Bought once. Billing never stops on either of them, with or without a renewal.

GST rules change. This page describes what the software does, and is not tax advice — check the current position with your accountant before relying on it for a filing.

Questions

Does it work out CGST, SGST and IGST automatically?

Yes, from the customer's state against your own. You do not pick.

Can I file GSTR-1 from it?

It builds GSTR-1 B2B and B2C, the HSN summary, GSTR-3B figures and a 2B reconciliation from your own bills, and exports them. The filing itself is done on the GST portal.

Is there a monthly fee?

No. Lite and Basic are bought once and never renew — billing keeps working for ever, with or without support.

Does it need the internet?

No. Everything described here runs offline on your own computer.
