Generate GST Invoices, E-Way Bills & Returns in Minutes

GST compliance should not consume your accounts team. ERPDrive auto-calculates CGST, SGST, and IGST based on HSN codes and customer location, generates e-way bills, creates delivery challans for job work, and produces GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B ready reports, all from the same transactions you create every day.

The Problem

GST Compliance Headaches for Manufacturers

Manufacturing businesses face unique GST challenges that generic accounting software cannot handle.

Manual Tax Calculation Errors

Your accounts team manually looks up HSN codes, checks whether the transaction is intra-state or inter-state, calculates the applicable GST rate, and types the tax amounts into the invoice. One wrong HSN code or one CGST/IGST mix-up means an incorrect invoice, potential penalties, and ITC issues for your customer.

E-Way Bill Generation Delays

The truck is loaded and ready to leave, but the e-way bill has not been generated yet. Someone has to log into the NIC portal, manually enter all the invoice details, transporter information, and vehicle number. This delays dispatch by 30-60 minutes every time, and errors in the e-way bill can lead to goods being detained.

Month-End GST Return Chaos

The last week of every month is consumed by compiling GSTR-1 data. Your accounts team exports invoices from Tally, cross-checks with dispatch records, reconciles credit notes, and manually prepares the return. Errors are discovered at the last minute, and the deadline creates panic every single month.

The Solution

How ERPDrive Makes GST Invoicing Effortless

Invoices, challans, e-way bills, and returns generated from the same data you already enter. No duplicate work.

Auto GST Calculation by HSN

Every product has its HSN code and GST rate configured once. When you create an invoice, ERPDrive determines whether to apply CGST+SGST or IGST based on the customer's state and your place of supply. Tax amounts are calculated to the paisa with proper rounding as per GST rules.

E-Way Bill Integration

Generate e-way bills directly from your invoices. ERPDrive pre-fills all required fields including invoice details, from/to addresses, HSN summary, transporter details, and vehicle number. Generate via API or export the JSON for manual upload to the NIC portal.

Delivery Challan for Job Work

Auto parts manufacturers frequently send materials for job work. ERPDrive generates proper delivery challans with all GST-prescribed fields. Track challan-wise pending returns, and reconcile job work materials within the stipulated timeframe to avoid tax implications.

GSTR-1 & GSTR-3B Ready Reports

At month-end, simply export your GST return data. ERPDrive compiles B2B invoices, B2C summary, credit/debit notes, HSN summary, and advance payments in the format required by the GST portal. What used to take three days now takes three minutes.
