India GST – IRP / E-Way Bill

Statutory e-invoicing compliance on SAP S/4HANA

Industry: Pharmaceutical Manufacturing

Scale: 10 plants · 14 states · 45,000 invoices/month

Architecture: SAP S/4HANA · BTP CPI · SAP DRC · Datasphere · SAC

India GST Compliance Transformation

A pharmaceutical manufacturer operating across 10 plants and 14 states was processing roughly 45,000 invoices a month against India's statutory e-invoicing regime — and doing much of it by hand.

The Challenge

A pharmaceutical manufacturer operating across 10 plants and 14 states was processing roughly 45,000 invoices a month against India's statutory e-invoicing regime — and doing much of it by hand. Manual IRP submission consumed two to four hours daily per plant, invoices were being dispatched without a valid IRN, GSTR-2B reconciliation across 28,000 AP invoices took eight FTE-days every month, and E-Way Bills were tracked in Excel. HSN code data quality was a persistent blocker, with around 30% of codes blank.

Manual IRP submission consumed 2–4 hours daily per plant Invoices were dispatched without a valid IRN GSTR-2B reconciliation across 28,000 AP invoices GSTR-2B reconciliation took 8 FTE-days every month E-Way Bills were tracked in Excel Around 30% of HSN codes were blank

Shvintech delivered an end-to-end SAP compliance architecture

SAP S/4HANA integrated through SAP BTP CPI, with SAP DRC Cloud Edition for statutory filing, a Datasphere ITC reconciliation model, and SAP Analytics Cloud for oversight. Three CPI iFlows carried the load:

iFlow 1 — Outbound e-Invoice

Real-time IRN generation against the IRP for every outbound invoice.

iFlow 2 — E-Way Bill

Automated E-Way Bill generation and tracking, replacing the manual Excel process.

iFlow 3 — GSTR-2B Pull

Scheduled GSTR-2B retrieval feeding the Datasphere ITC reconciliation model.

● HSN code data quality lifted from ~30% blank to 100% complete ● IRP rate-limit throttling at month-end resolved by redesigning 8,000-invoice batches with 14-GSTIN parallel processing ● GSTR-2B timing differences that were blocking ITC reconciled through the Datasphere model

Less than 8 min IRN automated, INR 24.8 Cr. ITC recovered in Year 1, Zero manual IRP submissions and Same-Day audit evidence
