Questions creators ask
Do I need GST registration to invoice a brand?
Not below ₹20 lakh of yearly income from services (₹10 lakh in some north-eastern and hill states). Without a GSTIN you send a plain invoice and must not charge GST. Many creators register anyway because brands prefer a GST invoice they can claim input tax credit on.
Should I charge IGST or CGST + SGST?
Compare your state with the brand’s. Same state: CGST 9% + SGST 9%. Different states: IGST 18%. The brand’s state is the first two digits of its GSTIN, and this tool works it out for you.
What SAC code do influencers use?
Most use 998361, advertising services. Content made for the brand to own and post (UGC) is often billed under 999613. Ask your CA if you are unsure; you can change the code on every line.
How much TDS will the brand deduct?
Usually 10% of your fee as professional fees, worked on the fee before GST. Agencies sometimes deduct 1% or 2% as contract work. If you have not given your PAN, they must deduct 20%. The deduction shows in your Form 26AS and you claim it back when you file your return.
How do I invoice a brand outside India?
With a GSTIN, file a free Letter of Undertaking (LUT) on the GST portal each financial year. Your invoice then carries no GST, is in the brand’s currency, and says it is a supply for export under LUT. Without a GSTIN, send a plain invoice in their currency.
How should I number my invoices?
One series per financial year (April to March), never reusing a number, up to 16 characters with only letters, numbers, “/” and “-”. For example INV/26-27/001. This tool counts on from your last invoice.
Is my data safe?
Your invoices, your brands and your bank details are saved in your own browser and never sent to Zorrid. The PDF is made on your device too. The one thing Zorrid keeps is your own email, with your name, so it can send you updates; your brand’s email is never sent. Keep the PDFs you send: clearing the browser’s data clears the saved invoices.
