Tafkiro for India.
India has one of the most operationally demanding e-invoicing architectures in the world. Every B2B invoice above the GST e-invoicing threshold must pass through the Invoice Registration Portal before it is legally valid. Since April 2025, businesses with aggregate turnover of ₹10 crore or more must submit invoices to the IRP within 30 days of the invoice date — submissions after this window are rejected and no IRN is issued, making the invoice invalid for GST purposes. That is not a reporting requirement. That is a constraint on your transaction workflow. Your ERP must initiate the IRP call as part of invoice posting, not as an afterthought export.
The regulatory landscape in India.
Every compliance entry below tells you what it requires and what Tafkiro does about it. No glossary-level descriptions — only what matters operationally.
Mandatory for businesses with aggregate turnover ≥ ₹5 crore in any financial year from FY 2017–18. Since April 2025, businesses with ≥ ₹10 crore turnover must report invoices to the IRP within 30 days of the invoice date or the IRP rejects the submission and no IRN is issued.
Tafkiro initiates the IRP API call when the sales invoice is posted — no separate portal session required. IRN and QR code are embedded on the invoice automatically. For the 30-day window, Tafkiro flags invoices approaching the deadline with an alert queue so finance teams can batch-submit before rejection risk.
Registered taxpayers must file GSTR-1 (outward supplies), GSTR-3B (summary return with tax payment), and reconcile GSTR-2B (auto-populated input tax credit from counterparty filings) monthly or quarterly depending on turnover.
Tafkiro auto-populates GSTR-1 from posted sales invoices, generates the GSTR-3B computation with input tax credit (ITC) matching, and runs GSTR-2B reconciliation reports to identify ITC mismatches before filing deadlines.
Required for movement of goods with value exceeding ₹50,000 for interstate supplies. Intrastate thresholds vary by state.
Tafkiro generates e-way bills from the delivery challan at the time of dispatch, integrating directly with the NIC e-way bill API. Bulk generation is supported for high-volume dispatches.
TDS under Section 194C/194J etc. of the Income Tax Act must be deducted on applicable vendor payments. TCS under Section 206C applies to specified categories of sales. Under GST, TDS (Section 51) applies to government and specified bodies.
Tafkiro applies TDS rates at the vendor ledger level, auto-generates TDS certificates (Form 16A, Form 26Q), and tracks TCS at the sales transaction level. Quarterly TDS returns are generated for filing with TRACES.
Mandatory on invoices. 4-digit HSN for businesses with turnover between ₹1.5 crore and ₹5 crore; 6-digit for ₹5 crore and above. Service businesses use SAC codes.
Tafkiro enforces HSN/SAC classification at item master level, with validation preventing invoice posting if mandatory classification is missing. HSN summary is auto-generated for GSTR-1 and the HSN-wise summary in e-invoices.
Businesses operating in multiple states require separate GSTIN registrations per state. Each GSTIN has its own return cycle, input tax credit pool, and place-of-supply determination.
Tafkiro manages multiple GSTINs as separate compliance entities within one company — separate GSTR-1/3B cycles per GSTIN, intercompany supply tracking with HSN, and consolidated ITC reports across all state registrations.
Why India-based businesses choose Tafkiro.
The 30-day IRP window changes what your ERP must do
Since April 2025, businesses with ₹10 crore+ turnover must submit invoices to the Invoice Registration Portal within 30 days or the IRP rejects them and no IRN is generated — making the invoice invalid for GST purposes. This is not a minor reporting rule. An ERP that handles e-invoicing as a batch export or a separate portal step creates a structural compliance risk for high-volume businesses. Tafkiro initiates the IRP API call synchronously at invoice posting. The IRN is embedded on the document before it leaves your system.
Multi-state operations are not an add-on — they are the baseline
Indian mid-market companies with operations in Maharashtra, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, and Gujarat are not running one business in four states — they are running four separate GST registrations, four return cycles, four ITC pools, and four sets of place-of-supply rules. Most ERP implementations treat multi-state as an extension of single-state. Tafkiro's India deployment model builds multi-state GSTIN management into the base configuration, because for any company of meaningful size in India, this is the norm.
Tally is where India's mid-market starts. Tafkiro is where it goes next.
Tally Prime is the most widely used accounting software in India's mid-market for a reason: it is excellent for GST bookkeeping and voucher entry. The businesses that come to Tafkiro are the ones that have outgrown it — running multi-warehouse inventory alongside accounts, managing payroll for 100+ employees across multiple states, billing projects against customer milestones, or consolidating across two entities. We have a documented Tally migration methodology. Your full voucher history, ledger master data, and GST e-invoice history migrate into Tafkiro, with a parallel-run period before cutover.
India's industrial clusters require sector-specific configurations
Karnataka's engineering and IT services sector, Tamil Nadu's automotive and FMCG manufacturing, Maharashtra's distribution networks, and Gujarat's chemicals and pharmaceuticals each have different process signatures. The GST compliance is the same; the operational workflows are not. Tafkiro's implementation methodology includes industry-specific configuration templates calibrated for these clusters, reducing the time to go-live versus a generic ERP deployment.
MSME supplier classification affects your ITC and payment obligations
Under the MSME Development Act (and subsequent circulars), buyers are required to make payments to MSME suppliers within prescribed timelines. Delayed payments create disallowance risk and compliance exposure. Tafkiro tracks MSME registration status at the supplier master level, flags invoices approaching the payment deadline for MSME-registered vendors, and ensures ITC claims align with the payment status on your vendor ledger.
Tally served India's mid-market well. Tafkiro is the natural next step.
Multi-entity consolidation, IRP 30-day compliance, multi-state GST reconciliation, and payroll — all in one platform. Migration takes 6–14 weeks with your Tally data intact.
