What the product produces, how we invoice you, and the statutes the payroll features are built against.

1. GST invoicing for your non-fuel sales

Maxify's barcode billing produces tax invoices for your non-fuel items — engine oil, coolant, shop stock — carrying your GSTIN, the item-level taxable value, and the CGST and SGST split, in a format suitable for your filings.

The invoice series is sequential and the records are retained for the period your filings require, so the numbers you file can be traced back to the sale that produced them.

2. Your registration, your filings

You supply your own GSTIN and the tax rates applicable to what you sell, and you remain responsible for the correctness of your registration, your rates, your returns and your filing deadlines.

The product computes and records; it does not file on your behalf and does not verify your rate selection against your HSN classification. If a rate is set up wrongly, the invoices will be wrong consistently — worth checking once, carefully, at setup.

3. How we invoice your subscription

The Maxify Fuels subscription is a supply of information technology software services, classified under SAC 998314 and taxed at the applicable rate, currently 18%. Prices quoted on this site are exclusive of GST.

Each invoice carries the supplying entity's name and GSTIN along with yours, so that where you are eligible you can claim input tax credit on the subscription in the ordinary way.

4. The entity that invoices you

Your tax invoice is raised by the entity shown below. Under section 16 of the CGST Act your input tax credit rests on the GSTIN that issued the invoice, so this is the name and number to match against when you reconcile your credits — not the brand name on the website.

Registered name
Retrato Media Group & Ventures
Entity type
Sole Proprietorship
GSTIN
32BGVPH3530C1ZQ

5. Place of supply

For a registered recipient, the place of supply is your registered location. Where that is in the same state as the supplier, CGST and SGST apply; where it is in a different state, IGST applies instead. Your invoice reflects whichever is correct for your registration.

6. Payroll deductions and the statutory ceiling

Where you activate a deduction policy, a flagged cash discrepancy can link to an employee's payroll as a penalty deduction. That feature is built against the Payment of Wages Act 1936, which permits deductions only on the grounds listed in section 7(2) and caps total deductions at 50% of the wages payable in a wage period under section 7(3).

The product enforces that 50% ceiling as a hard backstop, applies whatever lower cap you configure, and always records the reason alongside the deduction. Deductions default to zero until you deliberately activate a policy.

The ceiling is a limit, not a permission. Whether a specific deduction is lawful — including notice, opportunity to be heard, and the requirements around fines under section 8 — depends on your circumstances and remains your responsibility as the employer.

7. Records and retention

Invoices, ledgers and payroll records are retained for the statutory periods applicable to them, and are exportable throughout your subscription and during the wind-down window after it ends.

8. This is not tax or legal advice

This page describes how the product behaves and the statutes it is built against. It is not advice, and rates, classifications and thresholds change. Confirm your own position with your chartered accountant or advocate before relying on any of it.
