GST E-Invoicing Software | IRN & GSTR Compliance
GST compliance in India isn't one filing, it's a recurring cycle of returns, e-invoices, and reconciliations. Under GST rules, businesses with aggregate turnover above ₹5 crore in any financial year since 2017-18 must generate e-invoices with an IRN through the government's Invoice Registration Portal (see the official e-invoice system at einvoice1.gst.gov.in). Yukti builds the compliance mechanics into the same ledger that runs your books, not a bolt-on tax add-on.
How Yukti Handles This
Tax rates and HSN codes apply automatically on invoices
- Tax rates and HSN/SAC codes attach to products and services once, then apply automatically
- Split correctly across CGST, SGST, and IGST based on the place of supply
- Above the ₹5 crore aggregate turnover threshold that triggers mandatory e-invoicing, prepares invoice data in the IRP's expected schema
- Submits it for IRN and QR code generation as part of raising the invoice
Input tax credit tracking mirrors output tax on purchases
- Vendor bills are matched against goods actually received before a credit is treated as eligible
- A valid IRN is what makes an invoice show up in the buyer's auto-populated GSTR-2B
- Flags a bill missing its counterparty IRN before the credit is claimed, not after annual reconciliation
GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B pull from posted ledger transactions
- Return preparation reconciles against your books by construction, no parallel spreadsheet at filing time
- Credit notes, debit notes, and export invoices run through the same IRN-generation step as regular B2B sales
Rate changes apply forward, not retroactively
- New GST rates apply to invoices raised from their effective date forward
- Historical transactions keep their originally posted tax, nothing altered retroactively
Where This Connects to the Rest of Your Books
GST logic runs on the sales order and invoice screens
- Correct GST rate and HSN/SAC code apply at the line-item level before the invoice generates
- Place-of-supply logic (CGST/SGST versus IGST) lives on the sales order and invoice screens, not a separate utility
ITC tracking reuses the same AP matching logic
- ITC tracking matches what a vendor billed against what actually arrived
- Same three-way matching mechanic Accounts Payable Automation uses for non-tax reasons
- Adds an IRN and GSTR-2B check on top, verifying ITC eligibility when the bill is entered
The ledger keeps output tax and ITC as separate balances
- General ledger keeps output tax liability and input tax credit as distinct account balances
- A GST return traces back to specific ledger entries, not a hand-maintained spreadsheet
Where the AI agent helps
Before an invoice goes out, the agent cross-checks the HSN/SAC code against the actual line item description.
Flags mismatches that would cause the e-invoice submission to be rejected
Catches the kind of error that surfaces later during GSTR reconciliation
Fixes the mismatch cheaply before submission instead of expensively after

Common Questions
Does Yukti generate the IRN and QR code automatically, or do we still submit invoices to the government portal ourselves?
For businesses above the e-invoicing turnover threshold, generating an invoice in Yukti prepares the data in the IRP's expected schema and submits it as part of that same invoicing step, so the IRN and QR code come back attached to the invoice rather than requiring someone to re-key the same invoice into a separate portal-facing tool afterward.
How does Yukti make sure we don't claim input tax credit on a bill that isn't actually eligible?
A purchase bill goes through the same matching a normal AP workflow uses (checking it against what was actually received), and because ITC eligibility depends on the supplier's invoice carrying a valid IRN and showing up in your GSTR-2B, Yukti flags a bill that's missing that counterparty IRN before the credit is claimed, not after a mismatch turns up during return filing.
Can Yukti handle a business registered under multiple GSTINs across different states?
Yes. Each state registration is configured with its own GSTIN and place-of-supply rules, so a business selling from multiple states applies the correct CGST/SGST or IGST split per registration instead of running one blanket tax configuration across every location.
Does Yukti generate e-way bills alongside e-invoices, or is that a separate process?
E-way bill generation is part of the same compliance workflow as e-invoicing and GST return preparation. See our dedicated India page for the full detail on e-way bills, TDS/TCS, and multi-state registration handling alongside GST.
GST rates get revised periodically. Will that change the tax on invoices we already raised?
No. A rate revision applies to invoices raised from its effective date forward. Historical invoices keep the tax rate and amount that applied when they were originally posted, so a mid-year rate change doesn't retroactively alter transactions that already closed a filing period.
