GST records — and what we do not do
What RestoStay does
Calculates CGST and SGST on every bill from your tax settings, keeps invoices in a gapless series, and records output and input GST in your books.
What RestoStay does not do
RestoStay does not file GST returns, does not reconcile GSTR-2B, and does not generate e-invoice IRNs. Your accountant or CA works from RestoStay’s records for compliance.
Tax settings are yours
Rates and GST registrations are configured by the restaurant and changes are versioned — no rate is hard-coded in the software.

Questions
Common questions
Can RestoStay file my GST returns?
No. RestoStay keeps GST-correct bills and records. Filing returns, GSTR-2B reconciliation and e-invoicing (IRN) are outside Restaurant V1.
Does RestoStay replace my accountant?
No. It gives your accountant accurate, complete records straight from the counter, which saves time at month-end.
Are purchases included?
Yes. Goods receipts and supplier invoices post to the books, including input GST records.
