About this tool

What the GST Decision Assistant does

The GST Decision Assistant is an educational tool for Indian freelancers and consultants. It takes six inputs — business type, state, services, client location, annual turnover and current GST status — and highlights the compliance topics you should review before your next invoice. It does not deliver legal conclusions or replace professional advice; it exists to make sure you never miss a topic you should be thinking about.

The assistant is calibrated to the ₹20 lakh / ₹10 lakh GST registration thresholds, flags an approaching-threshold band at 80% of the limit, and surfaces additional considerations — LUT, FIRC/FIRA, Export of Services — whenever your inputs indicate any foreign-client receipts.
