Can we issue an invoice today

This query is : Resolved 

05 March 2026 We have manufactured a machine for a Chennai company and will deliver it in one year. They're asking us to issue an invoice today citing previous terms and conditions. They want to visit our office to test the machinery and will approve it before taking delivery. They're asking for an invoice today only.Can we issue an invoice today?

06 March 2026 You cannot legally issue a Tax Invoice a year before delivery as per GST Section 31. Doing so triggers immediate tax liability and risks ITC reversal for the buyer. Use a Pro-forma Invoice or Receipt Voucher instead.
