Forgot to do E -Invoicing

Quick Summary

If you've forgotten to generate an e-invoice within 24 hours, don't worry. While a GST consultant might suggest it's impossible, you can still generate the e-invoice after this period, provided it's before the GSTR 1 filing due date. However, failing to generate an Invoice Registration Number (IRN) means the tax invoice may not be considered valid under GST regulations.

01 October 2021 No problem, you can generate e-invoice even after 24 hours, no time is prescribed, however, it can be raised within the due date for filing return in GSTR 1.

01 October 2021 It is possible to generate e-invoice after 24 hours. If e-invoice is applicable on you and you have not generated IRN then it will be considered that you have not issued invoice at all.
