The Problem We Set Out to Solve
When we started building GST Maker, we kept seeing the same thing over and over.
A freelance developer spending 20 minutes creating a GST invoice in Excel. A shop owner sending a WhatsApp photo of a handwritten bill to a corporate client. A consultant Googling SAC codes at midnight before a payment deadline. A small business owner paying ₹18,000 a year for Tally just to create invoices.
GST is not going away. Every registered business in India has to deal with it — every single month. But the tools that existed were either too expensive, too complicated, or not built for Indian GST rules from the ground up.
We thought — what if GST billing was so simple that anyone could do it? A plumber, a tailor, a freelancer, a shop owner — what if they could create a perfect GST invoice in under 60 seconds, from their phone, for free?
That is what we built.
What GST Maker Does — The Full Feature List
GST Maker is not just an invoice generator. It is a complete free billing and GST compliance tool for Indian small businesses.
Tax Invoice
Create fully GST-compliant tax invoices with your GSTIN, correct HSN or SAC codes, automatic CGST/SGST or IGST calculation, sequential invoice numbering, and a professional branded PDF — all in under 60 seconds.
AI Magic Fill
This is our most loved feature. GST Maker's AI automatically detects your customer's state, applies the correct GST type, suggests HSN and SAC codes, and calculates all tax amounts. No manual decisions. No errors. Just fast, accurate invoicing.
Proforma Invoice
Send a professional proforma before collecting advance payments. Perfect for contractors, agencies, and anyone who takes milestone-based payments. Convert to a tax invoice with one click when the work is done.
Quotation
Share a detailed price quote with your client before confirming the order. Convert to a proforma or tax invoice as the transaction progresses. No retyping, no reformatting.
Recurring Invoice
Set up auto-invoicing for monthly retainer clients. GST Maker generates and sends the invoice automatically on your chosen schedule. Perfect for agencies, consultants, and anyone with regular monthly billing.
Expense Tracker
Track your business expenses — materials, software, travel, equipment — all in one place. Essential for ITC claims and for keeping clean books for your CA.
Inventory Tracking
Monitor your stock levels as you create invoices. Know what is running low before your customers face a stockout. Simple, clean, and built for small business needs.
Client Management
Save all your customers once — GSTIN, address, contact details. Select from a dropdown on every invoice. Never retype the same details again.
GST Reporting
GSTR-1 ready reports at the click of a button. All your invoice data organized in the correct format for return filing. No manual data entry for your CA or accountant.
Public Share Link
Every invoice has a shareable link. Copy it and send on WhatsApp, email, or SMS. Your customer opens a professional invoice on their phone without needing to download anything or log in anywhere.
Who Is GST Maker Built For?
We built GST Maker for the 63 million small and medium businesses in India — the ones that are too small for enterprise software but too serious to keep billing on WhatsApp and Excel.
Freelancers — Designers, developers, writers, marketers, consultants, tutors. Anyone who works independently and needs clean GST invoices for their clients.
Shop owners — Kirana stores, garment shops, hardware stores, electronics dealers, wholesale traders. Anyone who sells goods and needs item-wise GST bills with correct HSN codes.
Contractors — Civil contractors, electricians, plumbers, interior designers, IT infrastructure companies. Anyone doing project-based work with milestone billing.
Agencies — Digital marketing, web development, creative, and consulting agencies that invoice multiple clients every month.
New businesses — Just registered for GST and not sure where to start with billing. GST Maker has you ready in 5 minutes.
What Makes GST Maker Different
There are other billing tools in India. We know that. Here is why GST Maker stands apart.
It is genuinely free. Not a 14-day trial. Not a free plan with 5 invoices per month. The free plan covers everything you need to run your billing — invoices, clients, products, reports, all features. Free.
It is AI-powered. No other free GST billing tool in India has AI Magic Fill. The automatic CGST/SGST/IGST detection and HSN/SAC code suggestion is a genuine time saver that no competitor offers for free.
It is built for India, not adapted for India. Most billing software starts as a global product and adds Indian GST support as an afterthought. GST Maker was designed from day one around Indian GST rules — CGST, SGST, IGST, HSN codes, SAC codes, GSTR-1 reporting. Every decision we made was with the Indian small business owner in mind.
It works on mobile. No installation, no Windows dependency. Open gstmaker.com on your phone and create an invoice on a construction site, at a client's office, or anywhere else. The entire tool works perfectly on mobile.
It is built by people who understand the problem. GST Maker was not built by a large software company optimising for enterprise clients. It was built by founders who saw real people struggling with GST billing every day and decided to fix it.
The Numbers So Far
Since launching GST Maker, we have seen:
- Freelancers across India creating their first professional GST invoice in under 2 minutes
- Shop owners switching from handwritten bills to digital GST invoices
- Contractors winning corporate clients because they could finally provide compliant tax invoices
- Businesses saving hours every month on billing admin
Every invoice created on GST Maker is one less headache for a small business owner. That is what we are here for.
What Is Coming Next
We are just getting started. Here is what is on our roadmap:
Better GSTR-1 export — Even more seamless integration with the GST portal for faster return filing.
Payment links on invoices — Let your customers pay directly from the invoice — UPI, net banking, card.
Multi-user access — Let your team members or accountant access your GST Maker account with role-based permissions.
WhatsApp invoice delivery — Send invoices directly to your customer's WhatsApp number from within GST Maker — no copy-paste needed.
Mobile app — A dedicated Android and iOS app for even faster on-the-go invoicing.
We are building all of this based on what our users are telling us they need. If you have a feature request, we want to hear it.

A Note From the Team
Building GST Maker has been one of the most rewarding things we have done. We started with a simple question — why is GST billing so painful for small businesses in India? — and we have spent every day since trying to answer it with a better product.
Every feature we ship, every bug we fix, every improvement we make is driven by one goal — make GST billing so simple that any Indian small business owner can do it themselves, from anywhere, for free.
Being on Product Hunt is a milestone for us. But the real milestone is every business owner who sends their first clean GST invoice, files their first return without scrambling, or wins a corporate client because their billing finally looks professional.
Thank you for being part of this.
