GST software in Telangana
Built for Hyderabad, HITEC City, Gachibowli, Genome Valley and Secunderabad — multi-GSTIN, SEZ/LUT export billing, e-invoice, e-way bills, Telangana-GST returns and profession tax on one ledger.
Telangana's economy is anchored by Hyderabad — one of India's biggest IT/ITES and pharmaceutical hubs, with global capability centres in HITEC City and Gachibowli and bulk-drug and biotech manufacturing around Genome Valley. GST here is administered by the Commercial Taxes Department, Government of Telangana, and intra-state supplies attract CGST plus Telangana State GST. The compliance reality for a Hyderabad IT or pharma firm is export-heavy: services billed to overseas or SEZ clients are zero-rated under LUT, and that has to flow correctly into GSTR-1 and the refund workflow. HelloBooks files GSTR-1, GSTR-3B and GSTR-9 directly to the GSTN through a Fynamics GSP integration, handles SEZ/LUT zero-rated billing, reconciles 2A/2B in the same screen, and — because Telangana levies a profession tax — runs Telangana PT withholding inside payroll.
What Telangana-specific compliance looks like
Telangana's GST is administered by the Commercial Taxes Department, Government of Telangana, and supplies inside the state attract CGST + Telangana SGST. Hyderabad's IT and pharma firms typically run a single large GSTIN but with heavy export and SEZ activity, so place-of-supply and zero-rated classification matter more than multi-state branching. Where a group does hold multiple registrations — a manufacturing arm plus a services arm — each needs separate GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B and its own input-tax-credit ledger. HelloBooks ships multi-GSTIN per entity, derives place-of-supply automatically, and flags SEZ and export supplies so they land in the right GSTR-1 table rather than being mistaken for ordinary B2B.
Unlike Delhi or Uttar Pradesh, Telangana does levy a profession tax under the Telangana Tax on Professions, Trades, Callings and Employments Act, so employers register, deduct PT from salaries at the state slabs, and file the monthly challan. HelloBooks runs Telangana PT withholding inside payroll, generates the monthly challan, and tracks the due date against the Commercial Taxes Department calendar so the late-filing penalty doesn't compound silently. That keeps a Hyderabad employer's payroll compliant without a separate spreadsheet alongside PF, ESIC and salary TDS.
SEZ, LUT exports, e-invoice and e-way bills in one pass
For Hyderabad's IT and ITES firms, most revenue is export of services — billed to overseas clients or to SEZ units in HITEC City and Gachibowli, zero-rated under a Letter of Undertaking. HelloBooks bills these without IGST, flags them on GSTR-1 Table 6A/6B, keeps the LUT reference on the invoice, and carries the supply into the refund workflow so the GST return and the FIRC/BRC line up. Any business above the ₹5 crore threshold is on mandatory e-invoicing — HelloBooks generates the IRN and signed QR on NIC in the background and surfaces failures on the invoice itself.
For physical goods — pharma, bulk drugs, and the trading that surrounds them — e-way bills flow from the same invoice record. A Genome Valley API maker shipping to a Gujarat formulator shows IGST under POS Gujarat, while an intra-Telangana supply shows CGST + Telangana-SGST; HelloBooks derives the head from the buyer's GSTIN and reflects the split on GSTR-3B Table 3.1. GSTR-2B reconciliation runs nightly, and pharma's capital-goods-heavy balance sheet gets Rule 42/43 ITC-reversal tracking so input credit on plant and machinery is apportioned correctly.
Built for Telangana IT, pharma and services
Telangana's commercial base is concentrated and high-value: IT/ITES global capability centres and product firms in HITEC City, Gachibowli and the Financial District; pharma and biotech around Genome Valley and the bulk-drug clusters; plus fintech, aerospace and a dense trading economy in the old city and Secunderabad. HelloBooks supports the mix on one platform: project- and milestone-based revenue recognition and multi-currency AR for IT exporters, batch and expiry tracking with capital-goods ITC for pharma manufacturers, SEZ/LUT zero-rated billing, and multi-warehouse inventory for distributors. India payroll runs end-to-end with PF, ESIC, gratuity and Telangana profession tax, and Tally voucher sync is built in for firms keeping a parallel Tally book during transition.
Cash flow forecasting for Telangana businesses
A Hyderabad IT services firm invoicing US clients on net-45 and a pharma exporter waiting on an IGST refund run the same gap — revenue is booked when the invoice is raised, but cash lands weeks later, often in foreign currency. Meanwhile GST settles on the 20th, TDS deposits land by the 7th, and Telangana profession tax clears monthly. HelloBooks cash flow forecasting reads AR ageing, recurring revenue, vendor bills and the GST/TDS/PT outflow schedule, applies driver-based assumptions (MRR growth, churn, collection lag, refund timing), and projects a 13-week and 12-month cash position. Best/base/worst scenario branches let a Hyderabad founder model an export-refund delay or a key client slipping payment before it forces a working-capital draw.
