Gst inoice numbering


28 June 2017 Dear Mates,

I'm a new startup of proprietorship firm (Registered Under Service Tax / GST / Turnover 15 Lacs) and want to know is Serial Numbering on Invoice will be compulsory? like INV0001, INV0002, etc.

Because till now I was use to send based on customer's UID such as:

Customer UID: 785881
Invoice No.: INV/785881/1, etc.

So what can do? Because I'll get business if I use INV0001, etc. because then customer will be able to see I don't make business.

Looking for serious help. Thanks

02 July 2017 Yes you can do so.
According to Invoice rules 16 digit alphanumeric invoice no. Is allowed.It also contain" -" & "/"

03 July 2017 Dear Rashmi,

Thanks for confirming we'll continue to use as following... Hope I was able to clarify that we'll be using invoice based on customer id and as you said it does not exceed 16 digit alphanumeric invoice no.

Customer UID: 785881
Invoice No.: INV/785881/1, etc.

Customer UID: 785882
Invoice No.: INV/785882/1, INV/785882/2, INV/785882/3, etc.

Customer UID: 785883
Invoice No.: INV/785883/1, INV/785883/2, etc.

Thanks

03 July 2017 You can do same. No worry.
