Feature Request: E-Invoicing Support for Zero-Value Items

[IBSLPUNE]

Dear Team,

We would like to request a feature enhancement to enable e-invoicing for zero-value (nil-rated/exempt) items in the ERP system. Additionally, we would like to confirm whether your team will be able to provide support in the future in case we face any issues after this feature is enabled, especially if we implement this feature on our own.

Kindly let us know if this can be considered.
Thank you.

As per the rules, e-Invocing is only required for Taxable or Zero-Rated.
And if we upload nil-rated or exempted items, they will be considered as Zero-Rated.

Zero-Rated
Supplies that are made to SEZ (Special Economic Zone) or made overseas come under zero-rated supplies. The supplier can claim input tax credit on the purchase of goods or services that are used to make zero-rated supplies. This is irrespective of the fact that the supply is taxable or exempt or nil-rated.

Can you share the use case or any compliance document ?

Hello Sir,

If we create a Sales Invoice and the item is non-taxable, and we don’t want to apply any tax because it is a zero-rated invoice, ERP does not allow us to generate the e-invoice. It shows an error (as shown in the screenshot).
So can you please tell us how we can generate an e-invoice for zero-rated items?

For an invoice to be Zero-Rated :

• GST Category should be SEZ.
  or
• GST Category should be Overseas and Place Of Supply should be 96-Other Countries

The system will automatically set GST Treatment in the Item table as Zero-Rated.
