Check tax settings before the first bill
Review the shop details and configured product HSN and tax information with your accountant. Create a sample invoice and inspect the breakdown before regular billing. The software calculates from configured information; correct classification still needs review.
Before using GST billing, review shop details and each product’s configured tax information. Prepare a sample invoice, compare quantities and totals, and ask your accountant to resolve classification questions. For the overall workflow, see GST billing for fertilizer shops.
GST tax rates, exemptions, and HSN classifications are subject to statutory revisions by the Government of India. Always verify current applicable rates with official CBIC notifications at cbic-gst.gov.in or consult your qualified tax professional.
Why Agro-Retail GST Is Hard
A mixed-product invoice needs a separate check for each item. Confirm the unit, price and configured tax details instead of assuming all products in a broad category are treated alike.
First-invoice review checklist
- Confirm the selected shop and customer details.
- Check each product, unit, quantity and price.
- Review configured HSN and tax details with your accountant where needed.
- Compare the invoice totals and payment received before saving.
- Inspect the saved invoice and customer balance before sharing.
From invoice entry to accountant review
Compare sales, returns and payments for the same period before sharing summaries. Review supplier OCR drafts against the original document; extracted values can be incorrect. Follow GST reporting instructions and OCR review steps. Creating invoices or summaries does not file a GST return.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the GST rate on fertilizers in India?
Check the current classification and applicable rate for the specific product with your accountant and official guidance. Kroply uses configured product tax details; it does not independently determine the legal rate.
What is the GST rate on pesticides?
Verify the applicable classification and rate for the specific product before configuring it. A broad category name is not sufficient to confirm tax treatment.
Are seeds exempt from GST?
Confirm whether the particular seed product qualifies for an exemption before setting its tax details. Do not assume that every item described as a seed uses the same classification.
Can Kroply generate GSTR-1 reports?
Use available GST summaries to review recorded transactions with your accountant. Check the reporting period, completeness and required format separately. Generating a report does not submit a return.
Can one invoice contain items with different GST rates?
An invoice can contain products with different configured tax details. Review the line items and resulting totals before issuing it; invoice generation alone does not establish compliance.
