GST billing

If your outlet is GST-registered, Biller puts your GSTIN and an itemised tax breakup on every bill. You set which GST components apply and at what percentage; Biller applies and totals them for you.

Biller does not decide your GST rate, look up HSN/SAC codes, generate e-invoices/IRNs, or file your returns -- that stays your (or your accountant's) call. It does export your figures in the GST portal's own table shapes -- see Tax reports.

Just need a one-off GST invoice, no outlet setup? See the free GST Invoice Generator. Just need to add or remove GST from an amount? See the free GST Calculator.

1. Put your GSTIN on your bills

Go to Outlet → ⋮ → Update Profile, fill in GSTIN, and set GST Registration to Regular (Tax Invoice with tax lines), Composition scheme, or Not registered (both: Bill of Supply, no tax lines -- see below).

2. Set up CGST/SGST as taxes

Go to Outlet → Taxes & Charges → New Tax or Charge, pick your GST rate from the Tax type dropdown (e.g. "GST 5% -- intra-state" for a typical same-state bill) and Biller adds the correct CGST + SGST (or UTGST, or IGST for inter-state) pair for you, at the right percentage split. See Taxes & charges.

3. Apply them to the right tables/counters

Each table/counter has its own list of which taxes apply -- add CGST/SGST to every one that should carry them (or mark them Default so new tables/counters pick them up automatically).

4. It totals on every bill

The bill's Details panel shows one line per tax and a live grand total as you add items. See Making a bill.

5. Print or email a GST Tax Invoice

Once a bill is completed, open its ⋮ menu and choose Tax Invoice for a compliance-ready document with your GSTIN, invoice number and a full per-item tax breakup. Tap Download PDF to save/share the file directly (works the same on desktop and the Android app -- no print dialog needed), Print for the OS print dialog, or Email to customer to send it directly. The invoice number is assigned automatically in sequence when the bill completes.

6. On the composition scheme, or not registered? Biller issues a Bill of Supply

Set GST Registration to Composition scheme or Not registered and every new bill from then on is a Bill of Supply instead -- no tax lines, its own numbering, and the declaration printed on it. Switching the setting never changes a bill that already exists.

Priced with GST already included?

By default, a menu item's price is exclusive of tax -- Biller adds GST on top at billing, as above. If you'd rather price a dish "GST-inclusive" (the sticker price already has tax in it), flip Price includes GST on that item in the menu editor; Biller then works the tax back out of that price so the customer's total still matches what's on your menu, with the tax line shown correctly on the bill and invoice. New outlets default new items to inclusive going forward; this never changes how an existing item you haven't touched is billed. See Building & managing your menu .

The printed receipt (thermal, on-screen and emailed) marks such a line (incl.) and prints its tax-excluded value, not the sticker price, so the items and tax line always add up to the total shown.

Tips

  • Change a rate once in Taxes & Charges and it applies to every new bill it's attached to.
  • A GST rate picked from the Tax type dropdown is always named and split correctly, so it's always picked up by the GST reports. If you have an older, custom-named tax line from before this dropdown existed, keep its name recognisable (CGST, SGST, IGST 18%, or a combined GST 5%) or it's reported as a non-GST charge instead -- ask the in-app help assistant if a charge isn't showing up in your reports, or for HSN/SAC code setup.
