Hey Product Hunt! I'm Karan, a freelance developer from India.
My first invoice took longer to figure out than the work it billed. I didn't know what a SAC code was, whether I needed to charge GST, or why my client's payment was smaller than my invoice, turns out that's TDS.
Every invoice tool I found either assumed I was a registered company with a GSTIN, or ignored Indian tax rules entirely. So I built the tool I wish I'd had:
Works whether you have a GSTIN or not
Splits CGST/SGST vs IGST automatically based on your state and your client's
Handles export invoices under LUT for foreign clients
Shows an estimated TDS deduction so you're not surprised by what you actually receive
Downloads as a real PDF (or PNG) & no sign-up, no watermark, no account
It's free and will stay free.
Also open source, if you want to see how the GST logic works: github.com/karan5772/InvoiceGenerator
Would love your feedback, especially if you're a freelancer in India and there's an edge case I got wrong.

The fact that it auto-calculates CGST, SGST and IGST based on whether the client is intra or inter-state is such a thoughtful touch. Most invoice tools make you figure that out yourself, so this actually saves real time.
Super useful tool, especially the TDS estimate feature which I haven't seen elsewhere. One suggestion: add a client database where I can save GST numbers and addresses, so I don't have to retype them every time I invoice the same client.

@orrick_bai As much i would love to do that, still i can't ship it for free rn, And not quite sure weather people will purchase my product or not.

Finally something that doesn't make me google "CGST vs IGST" every single time. The TDS estimate alone is super helpful, kind of wish I had this last quarter.

@beratokqf I have also build it from coming through the same point.

Would love to see a built-in client database so I can pick repeat clients from a dropdown instead of typing their GSTIN and address every time. Could even auto-suggest the right tax type based on their state versus mine.

@lawson_yao Yup, i'm also thinking in that direction, but it'll be a paid product, and i'm not quite sure about it, weather it'll work or not.

@felix_cross Yes, it's easy and saves much time.
