# GST Manager for AcelleMail

GST Manager makes your AcelleMail invoicing **GST-compliant for India**. It classifies every
invoice as B2B, B2C or export, splits the tax into CGST/SGST or IGST automatically, prints a proper
GST invoice PDF with your GSTIN and SAC codes, and gives you the CSV reports you need at filing
time — all inside AcelleMail's own admin theme.

::: info A quick vocabulary
**GST** is India's Goods and Services Tax. **GSTIN** is your 15-character GST registration number.
**IGST / CGST / SGST** are the inter-state / central / state components of GST. **SAC** codes
classify services for tax; **Purpose Codes** (from the RBI) classify export payments. **B2B** is a
customer who has a GSTIN; **B2C** is one who doesn't.

## Who it is for

An Indian business running **AcelleMail 4.2+** that needs its invoices and tax reporting to satisfy
GST rules — correct IGST vs CGST/SGST on every invoice, compliant invoice PDFs, export-invoice
(FEMA) handling, and clean GSTR-1 data — without wiring any of it up by hand.

## What it does

| Area | What you get |
| --- | --- |
| **Tax engine** | Every invoice classified B2B-intra / B2B-inter / B2C / Export, with CGST+SGST or IGST split automatically |
| **Invoices** | A GST-aware invoice PDF with your logo, GSTIN, SAC column, tax split, and per-currency bank details |
| **Reports** | GSTR-1 (B2B & B2C), Export invoices, and a legacy all-paid CSV — each by date range |
| **Dashboard** | A tax-reconciliation dashboard with GST collected, export revenue, charts and a GSTR-1 countdown |
| **Compliance** | GSTIN capture and validation, export-invoice numbering (EXP-YYYY-N), and Export/FEMA declarations |
| **Safety** | Advisory HMAC-SHA256 file-integrity checks and one-click updates with an automatic backup |

## How it fits into AcelleMail

The plugin adds a single **GST Manager** entry to the AcelleMail sidebar. Inside, its work is split
across top pill tabs — **Dashboard**, **Setup**, **Reports** and **Plugin Settings** — so
everything lives in one place without leaving the admin theme.

::: tip You enter your license first
Until a valid license is active, GST Manager shows only its **License** page — the dashboard, setup
and reports stay locked. Enter your key under **Plugin Settings → License** and everything opens up.
See [Licensing](/gst-manager-acellemail/licensing).
