Creating Tax Groups

Two or more tax rates can be combined together to form a tax group. In India, intra-state transactions involve CGST + SGST. So a tax group is created by default in Zoho POS. For example, GST12 consists of 6% CGST + 6% SGST. Similarly, custom tax groups can be created based on your requirements.

Go to Settings > Taxes and select the Tax Rates tab.

Click + New Tax Group.

Tax Exemptions

In India, tax exemptions are applicable for different products and for a specific set of customers. For example, fresh milk, vegetables, fruits, eggs, coffee, and spices are exempted from GST.
