GST Billing for Delhi Electronics Dealers — Complete 2026 Guide

Walk through Nehru Place on a busy morning. Laxmi Nagar's electronics market on a Sunday. Gaffar Market's phone accessories lane at noon. SP Mukherjee Marg's computer hardware shops after lunch. Palika Bazar's underground electronics stalls in the evening.

Delhi's electronics trade does not sleep. From high-value laptops and servers in Nehru Place to smartphone accessories in Gaffar Market to CCTV components in Bhagirath Place to consumer electronics in Laxmi Nagar — the capital's electronics dealers cover a spectrum of products, price points, and buyer types that few other trading categories match.

And the GST billing complexity in electronics is among the highest of any product category. A single invoice from a Delhi electronics dealer might include a mobile phone (12%), a charger (18%), a phone case (12%), a screen protector (18%), and a Bluetooth headset (18%) — five line items, two different GST rates, each requiring the correct HSN code, and if the buyer is a registered business, an IRN from the IRP before goods are handed over.

Add serial number tracking for high-value items, warranty management across products and brands, multi-brand catalogue management, and the fast-moving competitive pricing environment of Delhi's electronics trade — and you have a billing challenge that requires software specifically configured for electronics dealers, not a generic GST tool that treats every product the same way.

This comprehensive guide covers every GST billing requirement specific to Delhi's electronics dealers — the correct HSN codes and rates, the e-invoicing requirements, the serial number tracking necessity, the warranty and service implications, and how ERP Group's accounting software serves Delhi's electronics trading community with the depth this category demands.

Delhi's Electronics Trading Landscape

The Geography of Delhi's Electronics Trade

Delhi's electronics market is not concentrated in one location — it is distributed across specialized market clusters, each with its own character and trading community:

Nehru Place — IT Hardware, Software, and Enterprise Electronics

South Delhi's largest IT market — dealing in laptops, desktops, servers, networking equipment, storage devices, and enterprise IT infrastructure. Buyers here range from individual consumers to IT managers of corporations sourcing bulk equipment. High per-transaction values and predominantly registered B2B buyers make e-invoicing compliance particularly important here.

Gaffar Market and Karol Bagh — Mobile Phones and Accessories

One of North India's largest mobile phone trading hubs — dealing in smartphones (new, refurbished, and grey market), mobile accessories, chargers, covers, screen protectors, and related items. A mix of registered dealers and unregistered retail buyers. High transaction volumes with relatively lower per-invoice values.

Bhagirath Place — Electrical and Electronics Components

Delhi's historic electrical wholesale market — dealing in electronic components, wires, cables, switches, lighting, and electrical accessories alongside consumer electronics. A trader here may handle both electrical fittings (different HSN chapter) and electronic components (Chapter 85) on the same day.

Laxmi Nagar — Consumer Electronics Retail and Wholesale

A mixed consumer electronics market — televisions, refrigerators, washing machines, air conditioners alongside mobile phones and accessories. Both retail consumer sales and small wholesale operations coexist in this market.

SP Mukherjee Marg and Darya Ganj — Computer and Office Electronics

Computer peripherals, printers, office automation equipment, and related IT accessories. Significant corporate buyer segment creating high B2B invoice volumes.

The Electronics Buyer Profile in Delhi

Corporate IT Procurement

Large organizations purchasing laptops, desktops, networking equipment, and peripherals from Nehru Place dealers — registered businesses requiring proper B2B invoices, often with purchase order references and delivery challan requirements.

Small Business and Retailer Buyers

Small businesses buying consumer electronics, POS equipment, and office electronics — predominantly registered GST buyers for B2B supplies.

Individual Consumer Buyers

Walk-in consumers buying mobile phones, accessories, and consumer electronics — unregistered B2C buyers for whom standard retail bills apply.

Outstation Wholesale Buyers

Electronics dealers from UP, Rajasthan, Haryana, and Punjab who source from Delhi's wholesale markets — interstate B2B supplies requiring IGST and e-invoicing for sellers above threshold.

GST Rates and HSN Codes for Electronics — Complete Reference

Why Electronics GST is Particularly Complex

Electronics is one of the most HSN-complex product categories in India's GST system. Similar-looking products with different functional classifications carry different rates. A mobile phone and a walkie-talkie both look like communication devices — but they fall under different HSN codes with different rates. A laptop charger and a power bank have different HSN codes. Getting these wrong creates GSTR-1 errors, buyer ITC complications, and potential GST demand notices.

Complete GST Rate Reference for Electronics Dealers

12% GST — Primary Rate for Many Electronics

Mobile Phones (HSN 8517 12 10):
The flagship category for Gaffar Market and mobile accessories dealers. All mobile phones — smartphones, feature phones, basic mobile handsets — attract 12% GST. This is one of the few major electronics categories specifically at 12% rather than 18%.

Parts and Components of Mobile Phones (HSN 8517 70):
Mobile phone parts — battery packs, camera modules, screens supplied as spare parts — also at 12% GST.

Smartwatches and Wearables:
Smartwatches and fitness trackers fall under different HSN codes depending on their primary function — as a watch (HSN 91) or as an electronic device (HSN 85). The classification matters for the applicable rate.

Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) (HSN 8534):
At 12% — relevant for component dealers.

18% GST — Dominant Rate for Consumer Electronics and IT Hardware

Laptops, Notebooks, Tablets (HSN 8471):
All automatic data processing machines — laptops, desktops, tablets used for data processing — attract 18% GST. This is the primary category for Nehru Place's IT hardware dealers.

Computer Peripherals (HSN 8471, 8443, 8473):
Monitors, keyboards, mice, printers, scanners, external drives — all at 18%.

Televisions and Display Panels (HSN 8528):
LED TVs, monitors, and display screens — 18% GST. Relevant for Laxmi Nagar consumer electronics dealers.

Audio Equipment (HSN 8518):
Speakers, headphones, earphones, microphones — 18% GST. A major category for accessories dealers.

Cameras and Video Equipment (HSN 8525, 8521):
Digital cameras, video cameras, CCTV cameras, DVRs, NVRs — 18% GST. Significant category for Bhagirath Place security electronics dealers.

Air Conditioners (HSN 8415):
All air conditioners — split, window, portable — at 18% GST. Relevant for consumer electronics dealers handling white goods alongside brown goods.

Refrigerators and Washing Machines (HSN 8418, 8450):
Major home appliances — 18% GST.

Chargers, Adaptors, Power Banks (HSN 8504):
Power supply units, chargers, and power banks — 18% GST. A major accessories category where mobile phone dealers (12%) need to correctly distinguish from charger sales (18%).

Networking Equipment (HSN 8517):
Routers, switches, modems, networking cards — 18% GST.

SIM Cards (HSN 8523):
Physical SIM cards — 18% GST.

Cables and Connectors (HSN 8544):
USB cables, HDMI cables, charging cables — 18% GST.

Memory Cards, USB Drives, SSDs (HSN 8523):
Flash storage devices — 18% GST.

5% GST — Specific Electronics Categories

Solar Panels and Solar Equipment:
Solar cells, solar panels, and certain solar energy devices — at lower rates under clean energy promotion.

LED Lights and Energy Saving Lamps (HSN 8539):
LED bulbs, tube lights, and energy-saving lamps at 12% GST.

28% GST — Specific High-Value Electronics

Large Screen Televisions (Above 32 inches, certain categories):
Some large display categories attract 28% — though the exact current rate should be verified as GST rates on specific TV categories have been revised.

Exempt Electronics Categories

Second-hand goods sold by individuals (not dealers) and specific government-notified scientific equipment categories.

The Critical Mobile Phone vs Accessories Rate Split

The most common billing error for Delhi mobile phone dealers is applying the same rate across the entire invoice — billing mobile phone (12%) and charger (18%) at the same rate.

Correct Billing on One Invoice:

  • Samsung Galaxy A55 5G (HSN 8517 12 10) — 12% GST
  • Samsung 25W Charger (HSN 8504 40) — 18% GST
  • Phone Cover Silicon (HSN 3926) — 18% GST
  • Screen Protector (HSN 3919) — 18% GST

An electronics billing software that cannot apply different rates to different items on the same invoice — or that requires manual rate selection with the risk of applying the wrong rate — creates systematic compliance errors for mobile phone dealers.

GST Billing Challenges Specific to Electronics Dealers

Challenge 1 — Multi-Brand, Multi-Rate, Multi-Category Catalogue Management

A Delhi electronics dealer might carry products from 20-50 brands across 10-15 product categories — each with different HSN codes, different GST rates, and different compliance requirements. Managing a product catalogue of 500-2,000 SKUs with correct HSN and rate configuration — and keeping it accurate as new models are launched — is a significant catalogue management challenge.

Challenge 2 — High Per-Invoice Values and Single-Item Bills

Unlike FMCG or garment wholesale where invoices have many line items at lower unit values, electronics billing often involves invoices for single high-value items — a laptop at ₹85,000, a server at ₹4,50,000, a CCTV system at ₹1,20,000. For these high-value single-item invoices, every compliance detail — HSN code, GST rate, serial number, buyer GSTIN — must be perfectly accurate, since the financial impact of an error on a single high-value transaction is significant.

Challenge 3 — Serial Number and IMEI Tracking

Electronics items — particularly mobile phones, laptops, and high-value equipment — carry unique serial numbers or IMEI numbers. For compliance and warranty management purposes, the billing software must capture and link the specific serial number or IMEI to each invoice line item.

This requirement is absent from most generic billing software — they track products by SKU but have no mechanism to record the specific unit's serial number at billing.

Challenge 4 — Refurbished and Second-Hand Electronics

Delhi's electronics market — particularly Gaffar Market — has a significant refurbished and second-hand electronics segment. The GST treatment of refurbished goods involves Margin Scheme provisions and different compliance requirements than new goods. Billing software must handle both new and refurbished goods billing correctly.

Challenge 5 — Warranty Management Across Multiple Brands

When an electronics item is sold, the warranty period begins — and the billing system must record the warranty start date, warranty period, and applicable warranty terms (manufacturer warranty vs dealer warranty). When customers return for warranty service, the billing software must trace the original sale invoice, verify warranty validity, and generate the appropriate service documentation.

Challenge 6 — Corporate Buyer Purchase Order References

Corporate buyers in Nehru Place often issue purchase orders before the supply — requiring the sales invoice to reference the original PO number and the goods to be accompanied by a delivery challan. Electronics billing software for corporate-oriented dealers must support PO-to-invoice workflow.

Key Billing Software Features for Delhi Electronics Dealers

Feature 1 — Electronics-Specific Product Master With HSN Accuracy

What This Means

Every product configured with its correct HSN code at the 8-digit level and the applicable GST rate — automatically applied when that product is billed. For electronics dealers with multi-category catalogues, the product master must support the full range of Chapter 85 (electronics), Chapter 84 (computers), Chapter 90 (optical/measuring), Chapter 39 (plastic accessories), and other relevant chapters.

Brand and Model Management

Ability to organize the product catalogue by brand and model — Samsung Galaxy A55, Samsung Galaxy S24, Samsung Galaxy S24+ as separate products under the Samsung brand — with individual HSN code and pricing per model.

ERP Group's accounting software supports a complete electronics product master with brand-model hierarchy, HSN code at 8-digit level, and automatic rate application at billing.

Feature 2 — Serial Number and IMEI Capture at Billing

What This Means

At the time of billing each electronics item, the software must prompt for and capture the specific unit's serial number or IMEI — linking this identifier to the invoice, the buyer, and the warranty record. The serial number must be printable on the invoice and searchable later for warranty verification or GST audit purposes.

Why This Is Non-Negotiable for Electronics Dealers

GST auditors and consumer courts both reference serial numbers when investigating electronics transactions. An electronics dealer who cannot match a disputed sale to a specific serial number-bearing unit faces significant evidentiary challenges. Serial number tracking at billing is not just operational convenience — it is compliance and legal protection.

ERP Group supports serial number and IMEI capture at billing for electronics dealers — linking each unit's serial number to the sales invoice and enabling serial number-based transaction lookup.

Feature 3 — Warranty Registration and Expiry Tracking

What This Means

Based on the sale date and warranty period configured per product, the software automatically calculates and stores the warranty expiry date for each serialized item sold. When a customer brings a product for warranty service, the dealer can look up the serial number and immediately see whether the product is within warranty.

GST Implication of Warranty Service

When warranty service is provided to the customer — replacing a part, repairing a fault — the GST treatment depends on the arrangement. For authorized service centers, warranty service claims to the manufacturer attract GST (typically 18% on service charges). For dealers handling warranty in-house, the accounting treatment of warranty cost must be correctly managed.

Feature 4 — High-Value Invoice Compliance (e-Invoice + e-Way Bill)

What This Means

For electronics dealers above the ₹5 crore e-invoicing threshold — which includes most mid-sized and larger Nehru Place and Gaffar Market dealers — every B2B invoice requires automatic IRN generation. For high-value dispatches above ₹50,000, e-way bills are also required.

The Combined Compliance for a Single Electronics Invoice

A corporate buyer in Nehru Place purchasing 10 laptops at ₹85,000 each (₹8,50,000 total invoice) requires:

  • GST invoice at 18% for laptops (HSN 8471)
  • IRN from IRP (e-invoice for B2B supply)
  • E-way bill for goods movement (value far exceeds ₹50,000 threshold)
  • Delivery challan if goods are to be received by a different address than billing address

All four documents should be generated from a single invoice entry in the billing software — not through four separate processes.

Feature 5 — Corporate Buyer PO and Delivery Challan Management

What This Means

For Nehru Place corporate-oriented dealers, support for purchase order-to-invoice workflow — accepting a PO reference, generating a delivery challan for goods dispatch, and converting the delivery challan to a tax invoice on confirmation of receipt.

Feature 6 — Credit Management for Dealer Networks

Electronics dealers typically extend credit to their regular retail dealer customers. Credit limit management — with real-time outstanding balance visible at billing time — prevents over-extension of credit in a category where per-transaction values are high.

ERP Group's CRM software manages the complete electronics dealer network — GSTIN records, credit limits, outstanding balances, and purchase history for every regular dealer customer.

Serial Number and IMEI Tracking in GST Billing

Why Serial Number Tracking is Unique to Electronics

Most product categories do not require item-level unique identification — a carton of biscuits and another carton of the same biscuits are identical from a billing perspective. In electronics, each mobile phone has a unique IMEI, each laptop has a unique serial number, each server has a unique asset tag — and these identifiers matter for warranty, theft recovery, legal disputes, and GST audit.

How Serial Number Tracking Should Work in Billing Software

Receiving — Serial Numbers Recorded at Purchase

When electronics inventory is received from the supplier, each item's serial number or IMEI is scanned or entered at the point of goods receipt — linking the serial number to the specific batch purchase, purchase invoice, and purchase price. This creates the beginning of the serial number audit trail.

Storage — Serial Numbers Tagged to Stock Location

In the warehouse, serialized items are organized by serial number — enabling quick location of a specific unit when required for a specific customer order.

Billing — Serial Number Captured at Invoice Generation

When a specific unit is sold, its serial number is captured at billing — automatically appearing on the invoice and linking the serial number permanently to the sales transaction, buyer details, and warranty period.

Warranty — Serial Numbers Enable Warranty Verification

When a customer returns for warranty service, looking up the serial number in the system immediately shows: original purchase date, warranty period, warranty expiry date, which dealer sold it, and what price was paid — enabling instant warranty status determination.

GST Audit — Serial Numbers Provide Transaction Evidence

In a GST audit, if a specific invoice is questioned, the serial number record provides the physical evidence linking the invoiced item to the actual goods sold — preventing challenges to the genuineness of the transaction.

ERP Group's warehouse management system manages the complete serial number lifecycle — from goods receipt through storage to billing to warranty tracking.

E-Invoicing for Delhi Electronics Dealers

Which Delhi Electronics Dealers Need E-Invoicing?

E-invoicing is mandatory for GST-registered businesses with annual aggregate turnover above ₹5 crore. Most mid-sized to large electronics dealers in Nehru Place, Gaffar Market, and Bhagirath Place exceed this threshold given the high per-transaction values in electronics.

For a Nehru Place IT hardware dealer doing just 5 corporate orders averaging ₹2 lakh each per day — that is ₹10 lakh daily, ₹2.5 crore monthly, ₹30 crore annually — well above the e-invoicing threshold.

E-Invoicing and High-Value Electronics Transactions

The High-Value Invoice Compliance Package

For a high-value electronics invoice — a corporate IT procurement of 20 laptops plus networking equipment worth ₹25 lakh — the compliance package required is:

  • E-invoice (IRN from IRP) for the B2B supply
  • E-way bill for goods movement (₹50,000 threshold crossed many times over)
  • Delivery challan if multi-location delivery

ERP Group generates all components of this compliance package automatically — IRN and e-way bill in the same API transaction — so the complete documentation is ready the moment the invoice is saved.

E-Invoicing for Multi-Unit Serialized Orders

When a corporate buyer orders 50 laptops — each with its own serial number — the e-invoice must correctly reflect the quantity (50 units at HSN 8471) with total value, while the internal records track each unit's serial number against that invoice. ERP Group links the serial number tracking system to the e-invoicing module — the e-invoice carries the quantity-level information required by the IRP, while the internal record maintains the unit-level serial number linkage.

Warranty Management and GST Implications

Types of Warranty Arrangements in Electronics Trade

Brand Manufacturer Warranty

The brand (Samsung, Apple, HP, Dell) provides warranty directly to the end customer through their authorized service network. The dealer is not directly involved in warranty service provision. From a GST perspective, the dealer's sale includes the manufacturer warranty as part of the product — no separate GST impact at the dealer level for manufacturer warranty claims.

Authorized Service Center Operations

Some electronics dealers operate as authorized service centers alongside their sales operations — repairing brand products under warranty on behalf of the manufacturer. The GST treatment of authorized service center operations involves:

  • Service charges invoiced to the brand (taxable supply at 18% for repair services)
  • Parts used in warranty repair (may be provided free by brand or charged by brand to service center)
  • Warranty claims submitted to the brand for reimbursement

This creates a separate GST compliance stream alongside the dealer's sales operations — which ERP Group's accounting software manages as distinct transaction types.

Dealer Extended Warranty

Some dealers offer their own extended warranty beyond the manufacturer's standard warranty — charging a separate warranty fee. This warranty fee is a service supply — taxable at 18% GST as insurance or service depending on how it is structured.

Service and Repair GST Billing

The Electronics Service Centre GST Landscape

Many Delhi electronics dealers operate a service and repair component alongside their product sales — repair shops in Nehru Place and Gaffar Market provide both manufacturer warranty service and chargeable out-of-warranty repairs.

GST on Repair Services

Repair Service Charges — 18% GST

Repair and maintenance services for electronic equipment are taxable at 18% GST (SAC 9987). Service invoices must include the SAC code, not an HSN code, and the 18% rate applies.

Spare Parts Used in Repair — Product Rate Applies

When spare parts are used in repair — a replacement display, a new battery, a replacement motherboard — the GST rate on the spare part follows the product's applicable rate (typically 12% for phone parts, 18% for laptop components). The service invoice should separately show the service charge (18%) and parts cost (at applicable product rate).

Job Cards as Internal Documents

For electronics service centers, job cards are the internal document tracking the customer's device, fault description, parts used, and service charge. While job cards are not GST documents themselves, they should link to the final service invoice — creating a documented trail for GST audit purposes.

ERP Group supports job card-to-service-invoice workflow for electronics service centers — capturing device details, serial numbers, fault descriptions, parts used, and generating the correct mixed-rate (service + parts) GST invoice.

ITC Management for Delhi Electronics Dealers

ITC on Electronics Purchases — High Stakes

For electronics dealers, ITC on purchases is proportionally very significant — buying laptops at 18% GST means significant ITC per unit. A Nehru Place dealer purchasing 100 laptops at ₹60,000 each from a distributor has paid ₹10,800 per unit in GST — ₹10,80,000 in ITC from a single purchase order.

Correctly claiming this ITC — verified against GSTR-2B, matched to the correct tax head (IGST for outstation purchases, CGST/SGST for Delhi purchases) — is a cash flow management function as much as a compliance function.

ITC for Mixed-Rate Category Dealers

Mobile phone dealers who also sell accessories face a specific ITC challenge — they claim ITC at 12% on phone purchases and at 18% on accessory purchases. The GSTR-2B will show ITC at both rates, which must be correctly allocated in GSTR-3B Table 4.

GSTR-2B Reconciliation for Electronics Dealers

Electronics dealers typically have a concentrated supplier base — buying from a limited number of national distributors and importers. However, the value of each purchase invoice is high, making each GSTR-2B mismatch financially significant.

ERP Group's accounting software downloads GSTR-2B automatically and reconciles against the purchase register — identifying mismatches and generating supplier follow-up for ITC recovery.

Inventory Management for Delhi Electronics Dealers

Electronics Inventory Challenges

Rapid Model Obsolescence

Electronics models are replaced faster than almost any other product category — a smartphone model launched this quarter may be succeeded by a newer version next quarter. Inventory aging analysis — which items have been in stock for how long, which models are being superseded — is critical for timely clearance before stock becomes obsolete.

For understanding inventory aging analysis and how to identify slow-moving stock, read our guide on stock aging analysis for wholesale business.

High Per-Unit Value Requires Precise Stock Control

At ₹50,000-₹2,00,000+ per unit for premium electronics, stock discrepancies are financially material. An unrecorded missing laptop represents ₹50,000+ in shrinkage. Electronics inventory management must be precise at the unit level — driven by the serial number tracking that connects every unit to either a purchase invoice (received) or a sales invoice (dispatched).

Import and Grey Market Complications

Delhi's electronics market — particularly Gaffar Market — includes both officially imported goods (with proper duty-paid documentation) and grey market goods (imported through unofficial channels). From a GST billing perspective, dealers should be billing from officially purchased inventory — maintaining proper purchase documentation that supports their GST filings.

ERP Group's Inventory Management for Electronics Dealers

ERP Group's warehouse management system manages electronics inventory at serial number level — tracking each unit from receipt through to sale, flagging aging models for clearance review, and maintaining the unit-level audit trail that supports both warranty management and GST compliance.

Got Questions?

Frequently Asked Questions

Mobile phones attract 12% GST under HSN 8517 12 10 — a specifically reduced rate applied to mobile handsets to support affordability and digital inclusion goals. Accessories sold separately — chargers (HSN 8504), headphones (HSN 8518), phone cases (HSN 3926 or 4202), USB cables (HSN 8544), screen protectors (HSN 3919) — attract 18% GST since they are not classified as mobile phones themselves. This rate split means a dealer selling a phone with accessories on the same invoice must apply 12% to the handset and 18% to each accessory as separate line items. Applying the same rate across the entire invoice is incorrect — either underpaying tax on accessories (if 12% applied throughout) or incorrectly overcharging on phones (if 18% applied throughout).

There is no specific GST law requirement to mention IMEI or serial numbers on the tax invoice itself (GST invoice requirements are specified in Rule 46 of the CGST Rules and do not mandate serial numbers). However, including serial numbers or IMEI on invoices is strongly advisable for electronics dealers for several practical reasons — it provides warranty traceability, supports consumer dispute resolution, creates an audit trail for high-value transactions, and is often required by the brand for warranty registration purposes. Many electronics dealers include IMEI as a line-item note below the product description. ERP Group supports serial number/IMEI capture at billing with printing on the invoice as a configurable option.

Yes — with annual turnover above ₹5 crore, e-invoicing is mandatory for all your B2B invoices to registered buyers. Every corporate purchase — whether for 1 laptop or 100 laptops — requires IRN generation before the goods are delivered to the buyer. For your unregistered individual buyers (B2C), e-invoicing is not required. Given that most of your Nehru Place customers are registered businesses, e-invoicing will apply to the majority of your transactions. At your sales volume, automatic e-invoice generation through IRP API integration (as provided by ERP Group) is essential — manual portal-based e-invoicing at corporate sales volumes is operationally unworkable.

The GST treatment of refurbished electronics is complex and depends on several factors. If you are a registered dealer selling refurbished phones, the supply is taxable at the applicable rate (12% for mobile phones). However, for second-hand goods, the government has introduced a Margin Scheme under GST — where tax is payable only on the margin (selling price minus purchase price) rather than on the full selling price. This Margin Scheme is available only when the dealer purchases the second-hand goods from an unregistered person (individual selling their old phone) and sells them. When purchasing from another registered dealer, ITC is available and tax is charged on the full supply value. ERP Group supports Margin Scheme billing for second-hand electronics dealers — calculating GST correctly on the margin rather than the full value when the scheme applies.

A laptop repair invoice involving both parts replacement and labour should correctly distinguish between the two components. The service charge (labour, diagnosis, repair work) is taxable at 18% under SAC 9987 (Maintenance and repair services of electronics). Spare parts used in the repair — replacement display (HSN 8473), replacement battery (HSN 8507), replacement keyboard (HSN 8471) — are taxable at the applicable product rate for electronics components, typically 18%. The invoice should show these as separate line items — service charge at 18% SAC, parts at 18% HSN — with separate tax amounts for each. A single blended rate across service and parts would be incorrect. ERP Group generates mixed SAC/HSN repair invoices correctly, with appropriate GST rate application for each component of the repair bill.

ERP Group's product master assigns the correct HSN code and GST rate to every product at the time of product creation — not at the time of billing. When a billing operator creates an invoice and selects products from the catalogue, the system automatically applies the pre-configured rate for each product without requiring the operator to select or verify the rate manually. A mobile phone in the catalogue is configured at 12%, a charger at 18%, a laptop at 18% — and these rates apply automatically every time these products are billed, on every invoice, for every customer, regardless of which staff member is doing the billing. This product-master-driven approach eliminates billing rate errors at the source — the operator simply selects the product and quantity, and compliance is handled by the system configuration.

Yes — ERP Group supports the complete corporate buyer documentation workflow. When a corporate buyer places an order, you can generate a delivery challan (for accompanying the goods to the buyer's premises for inspection before formal acceptance), and then convert the delivery challan to a tax invoice on confirmation of receipt. Alternatively, you can generate the tax invoice and a separate delivery note simultaneously — with both documents referencing the same transaction. For purchase-order-based corporate procurement, ERP Group allows PO reference entry at the time of invoice creation — with the PO number appearing on the invoice as required by corporate procurement policies. The e-invoice (IRN) and e-way bill are generated as part of the billing process regardless of whether the documentation is through a direct invoice or a delivery challan conversion.
