GST & TDS

Legal services provided by advocates to business entities attract 18% GST under the reverse charge mechanism (RCM) in India — meaning the business client is liable to pay GST, not the advocate. NyayX handles this automatically:

  • Individual clients → no GST added to invoices (advocates are exempt from GST registration below threshold)
  • Business clients → an 18% GST line is appended to the invoice under reverse charge

To set a client as a business client, open the client record (from the Clients page) and toggle Business client → Yes, then enter their GSTIN.

TDS deductions

Business clients often deduct 10% TDS under section 194J (professional fees) before paying your invoice. NyayX lets you record TDS separately so your accounts stay accurate.

1 When marking an invoice as paid

Open the invoice → click Mark as Paid. In the payment dialog, enter the Amount received (after TDS deduction) and the TDS deducted amount separately.

2 What NyayX records

NyayX records both the full invoice amount (for your books) and the TDS deducted (so you can claim it as advance tax credit when filing your ITR).
