From invoice to filing, without the manual math
GST calculation engine
Auto-applies the correct 5%, 12%, 18%, or 28% slab based on each item’s HSN code, so tax rates aren’t calculated by hand on every invoice.
E-Way billing
Generate e-Way bills seamlessly, pulling shipment and value details straight from your existing sales ledger entries.
GSTR return exports
Export GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B matching sheets built directly from your invoices, so return filing starts from numbers you’ve already entered once.
Why Indian businesses file GST with myBooks
Invoices calculate CGST and SGST automatically by HSN code, so a wrong tax slab on a bill isn’t something we worry about anymore.
E-Way bill generation pulling straight from the sales ledger cut out a step we used to do by hand for every shipment.
Having GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B sheets ready from our own invoice data makes the monthly filing far less of a scramble.
We don’t keep a dedicated accountant on staff — the GST workflow is simple enough to run ourselves.
