GST-compliant invoicing and compliance automation for Indian businesses
Data verified Oct 4, 2026
About BillForge
BillForge handles the GST work that goes beyond a plain invoice: GSTR-1 (B2B/B2CL/B2CS/Exports/CDNR/HSN) and GSTR-3B exports structured exactly as the GST portal expects, Section 43B(h) MSME 45-day payment tracking, Section 269ST cash-limit enforcement, vendor input tax credit (ITC) and TDS tracking, and AI-assisted bank reconciliation. Built specifically for Indian freelancers, agencies, and SMBs under roughly ₹5 crore turnover who need GST compliance handled correctly, not just an invoice generator.
