What is the IRN Time Limit?
IRN (Invoice Reference Number) must be generated and uploaded to the Invoice Registration Portal (IRP) within a specified period from the invoice date. From April 2025, businesses with turnover ₹10 crore+ have 30 days. Missing the deadline means the invoice cannot get an IRN and becomes non-compliant.

What is the time limit for IRN generation?
From April 2025, businesses with turnover ₹10 crore+ must upload e-invoices to the IRP within 30 days of invoice issuance. For ₹5-10 crore turnover, the limit may be shorter. IRP rejects invoices older than the deadline.
Can we generate an e-invoice after 7 days?
It depends on your turnover. For ₹10 crore+ turnover, you have 30 days. For ₹5-10 crore, check the latest GST notifications. After the deadline, IRN cannot be generated and the invoice becomes non-compliant.
What happens if I miss the IRN deadline?
IRP will reject the invoice. You cannot generate IRN. The invoice is non-compliant, buyers cannot claim ITC, and you may face penalties of ₹10,000 or 100% of tax per invoice.
