Taxes and GST

India: GST

1. Open Settings → Modules, find India GST Tax and switch it on.
2. Click Configure and enter your 15-character GSTIN. Your home state is read from it.
3. Choose the Default Rate Slab (%) for products without their own rate (18% unless you change it).
4. On each product, add its HSN / HS code (General tab).

CartWhizz then charges CGST + SGST when the delivery address is in your state, and IGST when it is in another state. Invoices show the split. While the module is off, orders in India have no tax.

Full details: India GST Tax.
