How to set GST tax for Sale in RanceLab ?
In the Ledger Master (MAA), create 3 new ledgers under group Duties and Taxes
For example
Output IGST @ 18%
Output CGST @ 9%
Output SGST @ 9%
In the Tax Master (MAT), create 2 new Tax Names
Output IGST @ 18%
Select ledger “Output IGST @ 18%” here
Tax Type = IGST
Calculation Method = On Product value
Output CGST + SGST @ 18%
Select ledger “Output CGST @ 9%”
Tax Type = CGST
Calculation Method = On Product value
Select ledger “Output SGST @ 9%”
Tax Type = CGST
Calculation Method = On Product value
Select Output IGST @ 18% from list against Equivalent Interstate tax field
This mapping will be required during sale or purchase for IGST or CGST+SGST tax based on Place of Supply
Steps:
●Go to Tax Master (M A T) > Here Create the taxes as per shown in the above pictures.
●Attach CGST+SGST Tax with the Product Master/Sub Group/ Price List.
●In Global Option (T A G)
●Here Set Place of Supply for GST = Yes > Save
●There are two important components which determine the how the GST to be charged on a supply
●Location of the Supplier – It is the registered place of business of the supplier i.e. in case of Purchase supplier state code and in case of Sale Company (Location) state code
●Place of Supply – It is the registered place of business of the recipient
Example 1:
Kolkata Mart Pvt.Ltd’s registered place of business is in Kolkata, West Bengal. It supplies goods to ‘Gupta Confectionery’, whose registered place of business is in Kolkata, West Bengal.
Here, the location of Kolkata Mart Pvt.Ltd’ is in West Bengal and the place of supply is also in West Bengal. Hence, this is an intra-state supply, i.e. supply within the state. In an intra-state supply, the taxes to be charged are CGST and SGST.
Example 2:
Kolkata Mart Pvt.Ltd’s registered place of business is in Kolkata, West Bengal. It supplies goods to ‘Singh Retailers’, whose registered place of business is in Mumbai, Maharashtra.
In this example, the location of Kolkata Mart Pvt.Ltd is in Kolkata and the place of supply is in Mumbai. This is an interstate supply, i.e. supply outside the state. In an interstate supply, the tax to be charged is IGST.
It will automatically pick IGST Tax as per the Mapping done in TAX MASTER, shown in the above pictures.
Steps
●Attach CGST + SGST Tax with the Menu (M F M). It will be applicable in all the modes such as Home Delivery, Quick Mode and Table Mode.
●It will always pick CGST + SGST Tax because in a restaurant the location of supplier and place of supply will be always same.
Example:
A Thai Restaurant in Kolkata, West Bengal, provides Thai foods to customer visiting their restaurant and deliver it to home in the city if required. In this example,
●The Place of Supply: The service is performed in Kolkata, West Bengal
●This is an intrastate supply and the taxes applicable are CGST + SGST Tax.
How to mass update the sale transaction on a given date range with new tax?
Scenario: The new tax has come into effect from a certain date. But I forgot to apply the changes in certain product master and continued with sale transaction. I must do a mass update because modifying a sale voucher one by one will take a lot of time.

Why the total Assessable Value does not match with sale amount?
Assessable value of a product is the value upon which various duties and taxes are levied. If you sell a product at Rs.200 with GST 18% (CGST 9% + SGST 9%), the assessable value for the product will be Rs. 200 for both CGST and SGST.
The tax report (Main > FRA > Ctrl + T) will look like this. In this report we do not need to match the assessable value with sale amount.
Why the Invoice Total in GST Report (Outward Supply B2B and B2C) doesn't match with the total amount is Sale Register?
In the Sale Register, the total amount is based on total of line items in a transaction. Wherein the GST Report it creates different rows as per different tax rates and HSN SAC code.
If a single sale transaction has 2 different items with different tax rates, it will show in 2 different rows and the invoice total will also become double.
In the the following Sale Register, the total amount is Rs.292.00
The Outward Supply B2C will have 2 different rows as per the different item with different tax
Rates.
It is not required to match the invoice total in GST report with the total amount in Sale Register.
How to Record Expenses with GST?

●Tax at Purchase = As per the required GST.
●Purchase Ledger (in other information) = freight charges (Create a new ledger if not present. Make sure to create this ledger under purchase account group)
●Item Type = Service
Then make purchase entry of that product.
The accounting report will show freight charges ledger under purchase group.
You may choose to change the group of freight charges ledger to direct expenses.
The taxes for the direct and indirect expenses will be shown in the Inward Supply or Summary of Inward Supply
How to do Advance Receipt Entry as per GST?
