Unicommerce, India’s leading e-commerce enablement SaaS platform, has introduced its GST Guidance Tool to simplify compliance for online sellers as the revised Goods and Services Tax (GST) rates come into effect today.
With the government revising GST rates across several product categories, e-commerce sellers are now facing the tedious task of reviewing and updating tax rates for thousands of SKUs. Doing this manually is not only time-consuming but also highly error-prone. The new tool from Unicommerce addresses this challenge by offering instant insights on applicable tax rates, allowing sellers to adapt quickly without the burden of manual cross-checking.
The process is designed to be straightforward. Sellers can upload their central record database file containing HSN codes, and the tool immediately generates a detailed report showing the old tax rate, the revised rate where applicable, and clear indicators where no changes are required. This ensures a seamless transition with minimum effort and virtually no risk of oversight.
To make the process even smoother, Unicommerce has enabled brands to upload the updated GST rates directly into the system. While all invoicing until September 21 continues with the previous tax structure, invoices generated from September 22 onward automatically reflect the new GST rates, leaving sellers with minimal manual adjustments once the upload is complete.
For e-commerce businesses handling thousands of products across multiple platforms, compliance can often be a complex and time-intensive process. By launching this GST Guidance Tool, Unicommerce has taken a significant step in reducing friction for sellers, helping them stay compliant and marketplace-ready while focusing their energy on growing their businesses.
