  • Micro and small taxpayers receive a 100 percent deduction on setup costs.
  • Medium and large taxpayers receive a 50 percent deduction on these costs.
  • Voluntary adopters are also eligible for deductions.
  • Eligible costs include software for digital invoices, digital signature tools, and EIS integration.
  • Large taxpayers, e-commerce businesses, exporters, and voluntary adopters can claim deductions.
  • The March 2026 deadline requires full adoption of e-Invoicing by large taxpayers, e-commerce businesses, and exporters.
  • Businesses must issue e-invoices in specified formats, report sales to EIS within three days, and register with the EIS Certification Portal.
  • Failure to comply may lead to penalties.
