how to setup Indian GST?

[suryacaprice]

I am trying to edit the default indian tac but we have CGST , IGST and SGST and HSN code for every product.. Each state has a specific state code . How to customize dolibarr and customize invoice with these fields

i can see this was enabled in 6.0.0 NEW: Tax system more compatible with the new tax roollout in India (IGST / CGST / SGST).

but when i installed it i can only see the old tax options .. can you please hile me

[eldy]

6.0 will be available a a release candidate in few days. May be you can can try with it when it will be available.

[suryacaprice]

Thank you eldy , I will wait for it . I have designed the invoice and others pdf template manually and using the dolibarr with local tax 1 and 2 to compensate for CSGT,IGST and SGST . Will it be any helpful for your development? or those designs are already over?

[kanand81]

Thank You Eldy and Surya. I am looking open ERP which can support india new TAX system. it will be very good for India user if you can add the CSGT, IGST and SGST in the system.

[eldy]

@suryacaprice design for 6.0 are closed. But you can help us to say if change in 6.0 is working correctly for india...

[suryacaprice]

@eldy Ya sure . You need to add HSN code for each product , State code for third party , Electronic reference number if the invoice cross over Rs.50,000 , Po Number , Delivery Details , Transporter details , Invoice total amount in words . I see these are missing in the 6.0 I added them by using extra fields .

[rahulbindroo]

Hi Eldy, All invoices will need one more column which can have HSN /SAC codes and PO's as well. In case you need any help in understanding this and changes do let me know I will definitely help you here . I am reachable at rahulbindru@gmail.com Regards Rahul Bindroo

I am even ready to contribute in forming GSTR1 forms etc to help this open source community

[suryacaprice]

when is 6.0 going to be released as stable?

[raghukr80]

Hi, I am also facing the same issue, we have tax rate as IGST, CGST & SGST with tax rate of 5%, 12%, 18% and 28% where IGST we will charge those amount as full and for CGST and SGST we will spilt the tax and charge ex: the tax rate is 18% the we will split that as 9% CGST and 9% SGST. As described i can add the tax rates for IGST but it is not allowing me to add the CGST and SGST more than one tax rate because the taux is part of unique index so it is not allowing us to add additional tax rate .

Surya, if you don't mind could you please share the pdf invoices which you designed.

@suryacaprice , i am using 6.0 version. Could you tel me how to enable Indian GST? I have done the following in Organization setup:

1. Country -> India
2. Disabled VAT
3. Enabled "Use Second Tax"
4. Enabled "Use Third Tax" But i couldn't see IGST option while creating quotation. Could you please help me?

[suryacaprice]

you need to enable VAT as well .. I made a manual config but as per dolibarr 6.0 VAT is IGST .. 2nd and 3rd tax are CGST and SGST

[raghukr80]

Thank you for the update Surya, i did the change in the template to display GST. If you add HSC code (complimentary attribute) in the template, please share with me and that will really helpful for my coding.

[suryacaprice]

[suryacaprice]

@raghukr80 does the default dilibarr installer will come with your updated to the db changes for languages and custom fields? can you upload your db aswell

[raghukr80]

yes, if you use this code it will come with the changes except the rupee symbol you can update the the below unicode 0x000020B9 in the lix_c_currencies table with this value to display rupee symbol.

Hi, I am trying to do the same thing, add Indian taxation system. My invoices as of now show only SGST. I checked my ‘Lang’ file, it has and entry ‘VAT=SGST’ by default. I haven been able to figure out how to setup Tax 2 and Tax 3 as CGST AND IGST. Any help is appreciated.

[rohittheozzy]

Hello @suryacaprice , I am also building Dolibarr for my company. Can you help me out with the settings for Indian tax system. Also if I can get some pdf templates for invoice etc. that would be much help.

[raghukr80]

Hi Rohit,

The current dolibarr repo which is done for a pharma company. You can download the source and install it first, I have updated the language files, also updated most of the templates including invoice to display GST split like CGST SGST etc.

Please configure the tax as per the default example.

For more help please ask the specific question, I'll try to answer. Thanks Raghu

[rohittheozzy]

Hello Raghu,

Thank you for the Update. Most of the requirements are solved in the latest version, and are highly simplified. Simple changes in the Lang files makes wonders. Only need to learn how to update the PDF template for Invoice. Then will go into accounting. We had been using Dolibarr only for Quotations and inventory till now, We are planning to use Dolibarr for the complete process this year.

Best Regards Rohit Potdar
