In previous articles, we discussed the types of invoices under GST. In few cases under the GST regime, the supplier will not be required to charge GST, hence a bill of supply is to be issued and in this article, we will discuss the applicability of a bill of supply under GST. A bill of supply is different than a regular tax invoice.
A bill of supply is issued by a registered person when he or she is restricted to charge tax by GST law.

In the bill of supply, taxes cannot be collected from the purchaser of goods or services.
