Prepare the report while you invoice.

1

Capture clean master data

Store the customer name, GSTIN and state correctly before raising the first invoice.

2

Record every outward supply

Use consistent invoice numbers, dates, HSN/SAC codes, taxable values and tax rates.

3

Review B2B and B2C

Registered-recipient invoices appear separately from unregistered or consumer sales.

4

Check HSN summary

Review taxable value and tax amounts grouped by the saved item classifications.

5

Export for verification

Download the selected date range to Excel and share it with your accountant.

6

File through an authorised route

Use the GST portal or your GST professional after confirming the final figures.

Scope: Billorex produces GSTR-1-style working summaries from the invoices you enter. It does not claim to file the return or replace professional review.

Key GSTR-1 tables at a glance.

The GST Portal separates outward supplies by recipient and transaction type. The exact portal layout can change, so use this as a working map and confirm the current return before filing.

4

B2B invoices

Tables 4A, 4B, 6B and 6C cover taxable outward supplies to registered persons in the relevant categories.

5

B2C Large

From the August 2024 tax period, Table 5A/5B is used for specified inter-state supplies to unregistered persons where invoice value is more than ₹1 lakh.

6A

Exports

Export invoices are reported in Table 6A, with related export details as applicable.

B2CS

B2C Small

B2C Small covers consumer or unregistered-buyer supplies that are not reported as B2C Large. The GST Portal FAQ describes B2C as supplies from a registered supplier to an unregistered buyer.

12

HSN summary

From May 2025, Table 12 is split into separate B2B and B2C HSN summary tabs on the GST Portal.

13

Documents issued

Table 13 captures document-series details. The GST Portal requires it for summary generation when specified outward-supply tables contain data.

Current portal reference: Review the GST Portal GSTR-1 guide before filing. Billorex prepares working summaries and does not file the return.

Reports connected to the original invoices.

Because the summary is generated from saved invoices, correcting a customer or invoice record improves the next report instead of forcing the same correction across multiple sheets.

GSTR-1 report questions

What is GSTR-1?

GSTR-1 is the statement of outward supplies in which registered taxpayers report sales and related invoice details for the applicable tax period.

What is B2CS in GSTR-1?

B2CS means B2C Small. It is used for consumer or unregistered-buyer supplies that are not reported as B2C Large, subject to the current GST Portal rules for the tax period.

What changed in GSTR-1 Table 12 from May 2025?

The GST Portal split the HSN-wise summary into separate B2B Supplies and B2C Supplies tabs from the May 2025 tax period.

Does Billorex upload invoices directly to the GST portal?

No. Billorex prepares summaries and exports for review. Portal filing or upload must be completed separately through an authorised account or professional workflow.

Why is the customer GSTIN important?

A valid recipient GSTIN helps classify a sale as B2B and connect the invoice with the registered recipient's GST records.

Can I select a custom date range?

Yes. Billorex reports use the chosen From and To dates, which helps review a month, quarter or another working period.
