This discussion clarifies that it's possible to generate e-invoices directly from the official GST e-invoice portal without needing to buy separate software. The process involves enabling your GSTIN through the portal's registration menu. Furthermore, you can use both your existing software for domestic sales and the portal for export shipments simultaneously without any issues.

No need to purchase software. How do I log into e-invoice portal? There is an option in the https://einvoice1.gst.gov.in portal under registration menu as 'e-Invoice Enablement'. Select and enter the any GSTIN of the company and get the OTP authenticated and enter the turnover with related financial year and submit. You are enabled for the e-invoicing and login and register.

Dear Sir, Thanks for your valuable reply. My further query is that can we simultaneously use both software & einvoice portal for invoice generation. we want to use software for our domestic sales and einvoice portal for our export shipments purpose.
