India

India follows a dual GST (Goods and Services Tax) model, where both the Central and State Governments levy taxes. CGST (Central GST) is levied by the Central Government, SGST/UTGST (State/Union Territory GST) by state governments, and IGST (Integrated GST) on interstate supplies and imports. For intrastate supplies, CGST and SGST/UTGST apply in equal proportions. For interstate supplies and imports, IGST applies at a rate equivalent to CGST plus SGST. A Compensation Cess may apply on luxury and sin goods. Due to the dual model, tax rate allocations between central and state must be managed at the application level. GST rates vary by goods and services across multiple rate slabs. Exports and supplies to Special Economic Zones are zero-rated. Exempt supplies include fresh fruits and vegetables, educational services, and public road tolls. Businesses are identified by their GSTIN (Goods and Services Tax Identification Number), a unique 15-digit identifier with format and checksum validation. Items on invoices must include HSN (Harmonized System of Nomenclature) codes for goods classification. India supports both credit notes and debit notes for invoice corrections.
