User Guide for Laravel eCommerce GST Extension

Laravel eCommerce GST extension is an addon which is used to add the Indian Goods and Services Tax structure.

Using it, the Store admin can add the GST to their Bagisto store products. This extension enhances the efficiency of business operations and ensures compliance with GST regulations.

It assists in identifying the relevant product taxes based on the production state.

Furthermore, you may explore the Laravel Customer Credit Extension, which allows customers to accumulate credit points and utilize them for their purchases.

• The admin has the ability to input their preferred GSTIN Number.
• They can also choose the State for tax purposes.
• The extension includes a feature that automatically distinguishes between IGST, CGST, and SGST depending on whether the transaction is within the home state or not.
• The admin can set the GST rate from the backend and has the option to enter multiple GST rates at once.
• There’s a function that allows the admin to determine the product price by including or excluding GST, or by selecting it during the product editing or adding process.
• A button is available to show or hide the GST inclusion details on the storefront.
• The store admin can choose to include or exclude GST for each product individually.
• Additionally, there’s a field for entering the HSN code in the product editing settings.
• The admin can also set or modify specific GST rates while adding or editing products.
• The automatic application of SGST and CGST for intra-state transactions, along with IGST for inter-state transactions, is determined based on the provided address.

Unzip the respective extension zip file and then merge the “packages” and “public” folder into your project’s root directory.

Open the composer.json file and add the following line under the ‘psr-4’ section:

"Webkul\\GST\\": "packages/Webkul/GST/src"

In the config/app.php file, add the following line under the ‘providers’ section:

Webkul\GST\Providers\GSTServiceProvider::class,

Run the following commands to complete the setup:

composer dump-autoload

php artisan gst:install

After following these steps, the Bagisto GST Extension should be successfully installed and ready for use in your Bagisto v2.2.2 project.

After the Laravel eCommerce GST extension is successfully installed, the admin has to proceed for the configuration.

For that, they’ll navigate to Configure>Goods and Services Tax to access the configuration settings. Below is the configuration settings,
