Provided that businesses are stressed due to disruption caused by COVID-19 pandemic and there are just two months left to implement e-invoicing, it was necessary to provide clarity on the process flow of e-invoice under GST to achieve the same effect. In this respect, NASSCOM made a representation to GST Policy Wing requesting for issuance of the revised schema of e-invoicing. Our description can be accessed here. Changes notified by CBIC are a step-in right direction. An increase in the turnover limit to INR 500 crores will provide more time to other taxpayers to understand and adopt the e-invoicing mechanism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Electronically-authenticated invoice<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>CBIC\n(Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs) on Thursday informed the Scheme\nfor E-Invoice under GST for implementing e-invoicing, a form of\nelectronically-authenticated invoice, from 1st October only for commerce with a\nturnover of Rs. 500 crore or more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Government authorized under Rule 48(4) of the Central Goods and Services Tax Rules, 2017, on the references of the Council by amendment in the Notification No.13\/2020 Central Tax, date on 21st March 2020, printed in the Gazette of India, Extraordinary, Part II, Section 3, Sub-section (i), vide number GSR 196(E), date the 21st March 2020. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the said Announcement, in the first paragraph, before the words \u201cthose mentioned to in sub-rules,\u201d the word \u201ca Special Economic Zone (SEZ) unit\u201d and should be introduced.
