Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether a contractor can issue GST invoices on their company letterhead. The consensus is that as long as the invoice includes all mandatory details as per Section 31 of the CGST Act and Rule 46 of the CGST Rules 2017, including both GSTIN numbers, it is acceptable. The specific format of the invoice is not prescribed by law, allowing for use of a letterhead provided all legal requirements are met.

If Tax Invoice raised by contractor as per GST law (All required details mentioned in Invoice)

He can raised invoice on Letterhead
It is acceptable
but it's should have both GSTIN number and all others items as per gst act
The GST Law does not specify any particular format of issuing Tax Invoice. So a Registered Person can follow any type of format for issuing a Tax Invoice provided that all the particulars as required under Rule 46 of the CGST Rules 2017 are mentioned in the Tax Invoice.

You can refer Section 31 of the CGST Act 2017 read with Rule 46 of the CGST Rules 2017 to know more about the procedure of issuing a tax invoice.
