The short answer

Jammu & Kashmir is a Union Territory with its own legislature, so — like Delhi and Puducherry — its intra-UT supplies attract CGST + J&K State GST under the J&K GST Act, not UTGST. The economy runs on handicrafts (Pashmina, carpets, papier-mâché, walnut wood), horticulture (apples, saffron, walnuts, cherries), and tourism, with trade centred on Srinagar and Jammu. Many handicraft and horticulture businesses export, so LUT-based zero-rated billing matters alongside ordinary returns. HelloBooks files GSTR-1, GSTR-3B and GSTR-9 directly to the GSTN through a Fynamics GSP integration, handles LUT export billing, reconciles 2A/2B in the same screen, and tracks the CGST + J&K-SGST split per GSTIN. J&K does not levy a profession tax, so payroll stays free of PT filings.

What J&K-specific compliance looks like

J&K's GST is administered by the State Taxes Department, UT of Jammu & Kashmir. Because J&K has a legislature, intra-UT supplies show CGST + J&K SGST — a configuration point worth getting right, since it is SGST and not UTGST. Multi-GSTIN appears where a group runs separate Jammu and Srinagar registrations; each needs its own GSTR-1, GSTR-3B and input-tax-credit ledger, and HelloBooks ships multi-GSTIN per entity so the group files every registration from one login.

J&K does not levy a profession tax — there is no PTRC/PTEC registration or monthly PT challan. HelloBooks payroll runs salary TDS, PF and ESIC but won't surface a profession-tax line for a J&K-registered entity, so you avoid a deduction the UT doesn't charge.

LUT exports, e-invoice and e-way bills in one pass

Pashmina, carpets, walnut-wood handicrafts and saffron are exported widely, much of it zero-rated under a Letter of Undertaking. HelloBooks bills these without IGST, flags them on GSTR-1 Table 6A, keeps the LUT reference on the invoice, and carries the supply into the refund workflow. Any business above the ₹5 crore threshold gets NIC e-invoicing with the IRN and signed QR generated in the background.

For goods movement, e-way bills flow from the same invoice record — apples and horticulture move out of the valley in season, and a J&K supplier selling to a Delhi buyer shows IGST under POS Delhi, while an intra-J&K supply shows CGST + J&K-SGST. HelloBooks derives the head from the buyer's GSTIN, reflects the split on GSTR-3B Table 3.1, and runs nightly 2A/2B reconciliation.

Built for J&K handicrafts, horticulture and tourism

J&K's commercial base spans the Pashmina, carpet and handicraft clusters of Srinagar; the apple, saffron and walnut horticulture economy; the tourism and hospitality sector across the valley and Jammu; and trade through both capitals. HelloBooks supports the mix on one platform: lot- and grade-based inventory for handicrafts and horticulture, LUT-based zero-rated export billing with refund tracking, occupancy-based revenue for hospitality, and multi-warehouse stock for distributors. India payroll runs end-to-end with PF, ESIC and gratuity (no profession tax in J&K), and Tally voucher sync is built in.

Cash flow forecasting for J&K businesses

A handicraft exporter waiting on an IGST refund and a horticulture trader financing a seasonal crop face the same gap — costs land upfront, but cash lands later. Meanwhile GST settles on the 20th and TDS deposits land by the 7th. HelloBooks cash flow forecasting reads AR ageing, recurring revenue and vendor bills, applies driver-based assumptions (seasonality, collection lag, refund timing), and projects a 13-week and 12-month cash position with best/base/worst branches — the same model a CFO would build in Excel, but linked live to the books.
