According to officials, the government may defer the implementation of e-invoicing under goods and services tax (GST) by three months to July 1. It was said by another official that trials of uploading e-invoices on the GST Network (GSTN) was introduced in January 1 and it had received a lukewarm response and barely 1% of registered businesses under the GST regime used it. “Instead of being apologetic, they were trying to justify their mistakes on the grounds that only 0.1% of the returns filed actually faced problems,” one of the people said.
