GST in West Bengal: state code 19
Every GSTIN registered in West Bengal starts with 19. When you add your GSTIN and state to your business details in Vyapar, it uses them to decide which tax goes on each invoice.
If a shop in Kolkata sells to a registered buyer in Howrah, both are in West Bengal, so the bill carries CGST plus SGST.
Send the same goods to Bhubaneswar in Odisha (state code 21) and it becomes an inter-state sale, so IGST applies instead. Vyapar picks the right one from the Place of Supply on the invoice.
Vyapar for businesses in West Bengal
A few trades West Bengal is known for, and the Vyapar features that matter most to each:
- Kolkata's Burrabazar is known for wholesale trade. Wholesale counters bill fast and give a lot of credit. Vyapar can scan barcodes while billing, warns you when an item runs low, and shows what each party owes.
- Darjeeling is known for tea gardens and tea traders. Tea gardens and tea traders sell in bulk to buyers in other states. Vyapar applies IGST on those sales from the place of supply and creates the e-way bill from the invoice.
- Howrah is known for engineering workshops. Factories and workshops send goods out by truck. Vyapar can create the e-way bill straight from the invoice, and the stock summary shows what is on hand.
- Hooghly is known for jute mills. Cloth and garment traders usually sell at a wholesale and a retail price. Vyapar can save more than one price for an item, and its paid plans generate e-way bills for bulk dispatches.
