A business registered under GST issues a tax invoice to the buyer. Such an invoice refers to the GST rate levied on goods and services sold. A bill of supply is issued instead of a regular tax invoice. The bill of supply issued to individuals does not include details related to the rate of tax and the amount of tax to be paid. Even the price mentioned in the bill of supply is not a taxable value.
Composition dealer - A taxpayer eligible for a composition scheme and opts for the composition scheme cannot avail GST on challan, is not eligible to recover tax amount from the customer.
Exporters - Export supplies are zero-rated or non-taxable, and hence bills of supply are issued by them. For example, when a registered taxpayer provides unproven agricultural produce, they should issue a supply bill instead of a tax invoice.
Supplier of Exempted goods or services - Any taxpayer supplying any goods or services which is chargeable to GST but not chargeable to tax, in such cases the registered persons' issue bills as proof of sale instead of tax invoice.
