A nutrition brand with a short menu
Supply6 sells powdered daily nutrition products from its Shopify store. The range includes Supply6 360, Fibre+ and Salts, and the menu is short, with Shop, Our Story, Blogs, FAQs and Refer & Win. A bar above the header advertises a prepaid discount code.
Product cards on the homepage show prices starting at ₹535 for Fibre+ and ₹1,080 for 360, and the sample invoice uses prices in that range. Supply6 installed the app in 2020, which makes it the longest-running store in this series.
What a supplement invoice needs
Powdered nutrition products are food in India, which brings two sets of rules. FSSAI requires a food business to print its 14-digit licence or registration number on bills and invoices, a rule in force since 1 October 2021, so the sample here carries one, written as 14 placeholder zeros. On the tax side the invoice needs the seller's GSTIN, a serial number of up to 16 characters, the date, an HSN code per product and the CGST and SGST split. Many preparations of this kind are classified under 2106, which is the code the sample uses for the three powders.
Two housekeeping rules apply as well. The invoice series has to stay unique within a financial year, which runs from 1 April to 31 March in India. And the number of digits expected in an HSN code depends on annual turnover, so a seller that grows may need to add digits to codes it already uses.
Bundles are another snag. A starter pack that groups powders with a bottle has to be split into lines on the invoice, because the powder and the bottle carry different HSN codes and can carry different rates.
The invoice stays a plain tax document. It lists product names, variants, quantities, prices and tax. Nothing else belongs on it.
How Supply6 runs it
Supply6 uses PDF Invoice on the app's free plan. Invoices use the Three template in English with amounts in rupees. The account holds four document types, which are invoice, order, refund and packing slip.
The sample on this page is invented except for the brand name. Customer, address, GSTIN, licence number, SKUs and prices are placeholders. The order has three powders with 30 sachets each and a steel shaker bottle under 7323, all at a flat 18% GST shown as 9% CGST and 9% SGST. The subtotal is ₹2,664.00, the GST ₹479.52 and the total ₹3,143.52. Real classification would set a rate per product, and a bottle and a powder need not share one.
