GST (Address in the sales invoice )

The registered taxpayer has 2 place of business . i.e. one principal place of business ( office) and other additional place of business ( warehouse ). The seller wants to show additional place of business in sales invoices ( instead of place of principal place of business.) Query is whether is this permissible ?

Quick Summary
Under GST, invoices must contain the registered address of the supplier. Where there is a principal place of business and an additional place of business, both addresses may be shown where relevant, using the Bill To and Ship To format for goods supplied from a warehouse.

No, it is not permissible, principal place of business should be shown in invoices

Thank you very much for your reply.   I appreciate that ideally principal place of business should be mentioned in the sales invoice. Also we have to mention that additional place of business is also registered with GST department. 

The section 31 and Rule 46 of GST law mentions the word '' address ''. It does not mention about principal place of business or additional place of business. 

Yes along with principal place of business additional place of business should also be shown
Supply of Goods shall have two adress i.e. billing address may be principal place of business and shipping adress may be warehouse address

Thank you very much for reply and clarity of thought. 

Your welcome

Pratyushya Verma is correct...

You shall Bill the INVOICE to Principal's place of Business and Ship to their registered additional place of business..

 

Apply Bill To / Ship To    mode of Invoicing....

 

You can show both address on invoice like offcie adreess include in client details and you can mention warehouse address as shipping address in some software you can make such invoice like Sleek Bill Billing Software. you can even add multiple shipping address.

You can show both addresses on an invoice. For example, the office address can be included in client details, and the warehouse address can be mentioned as the shipping address. In some software like Sleek Bill Billing Software, you can easily create such invoices and even add multiple shipping addresses. visit https://sleekbill.in

Rule 46(a) only requires the supplier's name, address and GSTIN, so a tax invoice may show the registered additional place of business from which goods are dispatched (the principal place may also be printed); that address must appear on the registration certificate and match the 'dispatch from' details of the e-way bill or e-invoice.
