GST Billing Software for Mobile Shop and Electronics Shop in India
By Khata Billing Team
Running a mobile shop or electronics store in India comes with specific billing requirements that generic retail billing software often misses. Electronics carry 18% GST, high-value items need serial or IMEI number tracking, customers expect warranty documentation with every purchase, and supplier bills must be carefully tracked for ITC claims.
This guide covers what billing software must do for electronics retailers — and how Khata Billing handles all of it.

In Khata Billing, set the correct GST rate for each product in your catalogue once. Every invoice applies the right rate automatically — zero chance of billing errors.
Tracking Serial and IMEI Numbers
For high-value electronics, tracking individual unit serial or IMEI numbers is important for warranty management and return processing. In Khata Billing, use the notes field on each invoice line item to record the serial or IMEI number of the unit sold.
This creates a searchable record — if a customer brings back a phone with warranty claim, you can verify the purchase against your records instantly.
ITC from Supplier Purchases
Electronics retailers claim significant input tax credit from supplier purchases. In Khata Billing, record every purchase bill from your supplier — the bill date, invoice number, amount, and GST paid. This creates your purchase register, which your CA uses to claim ITC in GSTR-3B.
Handling EMI and High-Value Customer Sales
Mobile shops frequently do high-value sales with EMI or credit arrangements. Khata Billing's customer ledger tracks:
Total invoice amount
Down payment received
EMI payments as they come in
Outstanding balance at any time
WhatsApp statement sharing for payment reminders
A mobile shop or electronics store running Khata Billing applies correct GST rates automatically, tracks serial numbers for warranty management, manages customer credit and EMI accounts, and generates ready GSTR reports — all for free.
