E-invoice system was launched on 1st Oct 2020 for the tax payers whose annual aggregate turnover is more than Rs 500 Crores and subsequently on 1st Jan 2021, the tax payers whose annual aggregate turnover is between Rs. 100 Crores and Rs. 500 Crores have been enabled. From 1st April 2021, as per the government order, tax payers whose annual aggregate turnover is between Rs. 50 Crores and Rs. 100 Crores are mandated to generate e-invoice from the portal. National Informatics Centre (NIC) has already enabled these tax payers on the portal and is geared up to handle the generation of e-invoices by the tax payers.

NIC has taken pro-active measures in educating the tax payers about the common errors while reporting the e-invoice to the IRP(Invoice Registration Portal). Daily emails are sent with the details of the errors and telephonic calls are made to the taxpayers with large number of errors. The tax payers can note the errors sent by mail and take appropriate corrective measures with the help of their IT teams.
