Where to find it
Settings → Organisation Settings → Tax & GST Configurations; Make A Bill → Payment panel → Apply GST

SalonBill works out GST on every service bill using your outlet's GST rate, and splits it into CGST and SGST.

What this feature does

On the bill you choose between two ways of charging GST:

The Summary shows CGST and SGST, each at half your rate (for example 9% + 9% for 18%).

  • No GST is charged on the part paid from the Wallet, Package or Advanced Package — the tax rows are hidden for those bills.
  • Complimentary bills have no GST, because nothing is payable.
  • The round-off box next to Apply GST — Smart (±₹5), Nearest ₹1, Nearest ₹5, Nearest ₹10 — rounds the final total.
  • With Enable GST calculation OFF, no GST is calculated on bills.
  • The invoice shows the taxable value, CGST and SGST.

Common problems

The total did not change when I ticked Apply GST?

Check the rate in Settings. If GST is turned off, no GST is added.

Why is there no GST on this bill?

It is paid from a wallet or package, or it is a complimentary bill.

My GSTIN does not print?

Fill GSTIN ID and turn Show GSTIN ON. See also Invoice Template.
