GST-compliant billing, without the sleepless nights

Anyone can make an invoice. BillForge handles the part that actually gets you a GST notice — GSTR-1 + 3B, vendor ITC, TDS and bank reconciliation, in the exact shape the portal expects. Built by a founder who got 3 notices and fixed it himself.

Why we built BillForge

Built by someone who got 3 GST notices.

I've been running businesses for 6 years. For most of that time, I didn't have an accountant — just me, spreadsheets, and a slow-growing pile of panic before every filing deadline. Three GST notices later, I realized the problem wasn't that I was careless. It was that every accounting tool assumed I already knew what I was doing.

They expected me to know the difference between B2CL and B2CS, to never change my invoice number format mid-year, to remember that staff food is a Section 17(5) blocked credit, to calculate TDS on a slab-based rate I hadn't read in years. If I missed any of it, a notice would show up months later.

So I built BillForgefor the version of me who was Googling "what is CGST" at 2am. Every field has a label that explains itself. GSTR-1 + GSTR-3B are structured in the exact shape the portal expects. The invoice number format locks automatically after your first invoice of the FY. Vendor bills carry a Section 17(5) flag so ineligible ITC doesn't sneak in. The Compliance Calendar tells you what's due and remembers what you've filed.

If you're running a business, doing your own compliance, and losing sleep over it — this is for you.

GSTR-3B: Table 3.1 + Table 4 (ITC split) + Table 6.1 (cash to deposit)
Vendor bills with ITC eligibility flag (Section 17(5) aware)
Original bill attached on every vendor invoice (Rule 36)

Frequently asked questions

Is BillForge GST compliant?

Yes, and then some. We ship GSTR-1 (B2B / B2CL / B2CS / Exports / CDNR / HSN) AND GSTR-3B (Table 3.1 outward supplies, Table 4 ITC with Section 17(5) split, Table 6.1 payment of tax) in the exact structure the GST portal expects. JSON export matches the GSTN offline-tool spec — no reformatting needed.

How does TDS on vendor payments work?

Pick the right section — 194C (contractors at 1%/2%), 194J (professionals at 10%), 194H (commission at 5%), 194I (rent at 10%) — and BillForge computes the TDS amount automatically on each expense. The quarterly 26Q export is pre-formatted for the TRACES portal so you don't have to re-enter anything. Every deductee's PAN is stored on the vendor card and pulled into the form.

Do you track vendor bills properly for ITC?

Yes. Every vendor invoice has a bill attachment field (required for CGST Rule 36 at audit) and an ITC eligibility flag. Pick a Section 17(5) blocked category (staff food, passenger vehicles) and the flag auto-flips off — GSTR-3B then books it as a full-cost expense instead of claimable ITC. Duplicate detection on vendor+invoice# stops double-counting.

Can I try before I pay?

Yes — every new account gets 3 months completely free with all features unlocked, no credit card required. After the trial you choose: continue at ₹149/month (cancel anytime) or pay ₹4,999 once for lifetime access.

Is it a subscription or one-time?

Your call. After 3 free months, continue month-to-month at ₹149/month and cancel anytime, or pay ₹4,999 once for lifetime access with no recurring bills ever. Every plan includes every feature.

What do I get on each plan?

The same thing — everything. There are no feature gates between Free, Monthly and Lifetime: unlimited invoices and team, AI reconciliation, full GST returns, TDS, MSME tools, the CA portal and all future updates. The plans differ only on how you pay. Lifetime also includes hands-on customer-development support.

How safe is my compliance data?

Data encrypted and backed up daily on AWS servers in India. Every action is logged — who created what, when. Per-invoice activity timeline shows the full edit history. Zero-downtime deploys with automated smoke tests mean the app itself stays up when we ship.

Can my CA access the reports?

Yes. Share a read-only CA portal link (PIN-protected, with per-section access) that shows invoices, expenses, purchase bills, GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, ledgers and a feedback tab — no login needed. Your CA can also download the exact original bank / PayPal / Razorpay statements you uploaded, byte-for-byte, plus export every report as CSV / JSON / PDF.

Which banks can I import, and can I bring in previous years?

Any Indian bank statement (CSV or Excel) — Axis, HDFC, ICICI, SBI, Kotak, Yes, IDFC and most others — plus PayPal and Razorpay settlement files. Columns are detected by name, so layout differences don't matter, and credits and debits are both captured. You can import previous financial years too: a statement that spans more than one month is automatically split and reconciled month by month, and every original file is stored unchanged for your records and your CA.

Do you support multiple businesses?

Yes. Each signup creates an organization. You can manage multiple businesses from separate accounts with completely isolated data. Team members, vendors, invoices — all org-scoped.

Can I run BillForge from Claude or ChatGPT?

Yes — BillForge connects to Claude via MCP. In Settings → Access → Connect to Claude you generate a personal token, add the connector, and then just ask in plain English: "create an invoice for Acme for ₹50,000 consulting", "what's outstanding?", "record a ₹50k payment against invoice 42 with ₹5k TDS", "show my GSTR-1 for May". Every action runs through the same API as the web app, so GST math, gap-free numbering and permissions behave identically — the AI can't take a shortcut that breaks compliance. Revoke the token any time.

Can I invoice in foreign currency?

Yes. On an export invoice the currency picker offers USD / EUR / GBP. The exchange rate auto-fetches (RBI/ECB) for the invoice date, and the PDF, pay page and GSTR-1 export all show the right symbol. Under LUT it's zero-rated (IGST 0%); without an active LUT, IGST is charged with the Rule 46(a) endorsement so you can claim the refund later.

What payment methods can I add to invoices?

Razorpay, UPI, PayPal, and Wise. Your clients see a payment button right on the invoice PDF + the public /pay page — no hunting for bank details.

What happens if I get a GST notice?

You'll have every document the tax officer asks for — bill attachments on vendor invoices, per-invoice activity log showing who changed what, Section 17(5) split on ITC, proper GSTR-1 + 3B structure. The Compliance Calendar tracks what you've filed (with Mark Filed button) so you never double-file or miss a deadline.

Sleep well at night.
File clean at month-end.

Built for Indian businesses who do their own compliance. Set up in 5 minutes, issue your first GST invoice the same day, file your first clean GSTR-1 next month.
