Frequently asked questions

Straight answers about what Rashtra Bill does and does not do.

What is Rashtra Bill?

Rashtra Bill (राष्ट्र बिल) is online GST billing software for Indian businesses. You create GST tax invoices, quotations, delivery challans, credit and debit notes, purchase bills and payment receipts in the browser, download them as PDF and keep customers, items, payments and reports in one place.

Are the invoices GST-compliant?

Yes. Invoices carry your and your customer's GSTIN, place of supply with state code, HSN/SAC per item, taxable value, CGST/SGST or IGST by rate, an HSN-wise tax summary and the amount in words. Inter-state or intra-state tax is decided automatically from the states.

Which documents can I create?

Tax and cash invoices, quotations, delivery challans, credit notes, debit notes, purchase bills, and payment receipts / vouchers — each with eight print templates and A4, A5, A6 or 80 mm thermal paper sizes.

Can I share invoices on WhatsApp?

Yes. Share an invoice link or send a payment reminder with the amount due and your UPI ID straight from the invoice list or preview. You can also email invoices from the app.

Is my data safe?

Your data is stored on secure cloud servers with daily backups. Each business's data is kept separate, sessions log out automatically when idle, and you control what each staff member can see with roles (Admin, Manager, Accountant, Cashier).

Is there really a free plan?

Yes — the Free plan includes basic billing for up to 10 records a month, with no card required. Upgrade to Starter or Professional any time as your business grows.

How do I get help?

Raise a support ticket from inside the app, or write to support@rashtrabill.com.

What counts towards the monthly limit on the Free plan?

The monthly quota counts the records you create in a month: items, customers, vendors, invoices, quotations, challans, credit and debit notes, purchase bills and expenses. The Free plan allows 10 a month, Starter 500, and Professional is unlimited. You can see your usage on the Subscription Plans page inside the app.

Does Rashtra Bill generate e-invoices (IRN and QR code)?

Not at present. Rashtra Bill creates GST-compliant tax invoices, but it does not connect to the Invoice Registration Portal to generate an IRN or the government QR code. If your turnover requires e-invoicing, read our e-invoicing guide and check the current rules on the GST portal or with your CA.

Can I file my GST returns from Rashtra Bill?

No. Rashtra Bill does not file returns on the GST portal. It gives you GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B summary reports, an HSN-wise summary and a CGST/SGST/IGST split to help you or your accountant prepare the returns.

Do I need to install anything?

No. Rashtra Bill runs in your browser on a phone, tablet or computer. There is no software to install.

Can my staff and my CA use it too?

Yes. You can add users with roles — Admin, Manager, Accountant, Cashier and CA (view-only) — so each person sees and does only what they should.

Which GST reports are available?

Invoice and purchase registers, sales by customer and by item, GSTR-1 (B2B / B2C / credit and debit notes) and HSN summary, GSTR-3B summary, CGST/SGST/IGST split, receivables and payables ageing, payments, expenses, stock summary and a profit summary.

Can I use it for a shop that prints on a thermal printer?

Yes. Documents can be printed or saved as PDF on A4, A5, A6 or 80 mm thermal paper.
