SaaS accounting builds on our broader IT sector accounting service. Explore these closely related services:

• IT Sector Accounting Services - the parent service for IT and software companies.
• Accounting Services - full-service bookkeeping and financial reporting.
• GST Returns Filing - OIDAR and export return preparation and filing.
• Income Tax Return Filing - ITR preparation and filing for the company.
• Company Registration in USA - US entity setup for global SaaS.

SaaS supplied online is classified as OIDAR, with services billed under SAC 998314 at 18% GST. A timing mismatch arises because GST is due on the invoice date, not the revenue recognition date, so an annual invoice triggers full GST upfront while revenue is recognised over twelve months. The deferred revenue balance must therefore be carried net of GST.

For SaaS exporters, services to foreign customers can be zero-rated by filing a Letter of Undertaking, provided the five conditions for export of services under Section 2(6) of the IGST Act are met, with FIRC and SOFTEX documentation. We map domestic and export streams and align them with GST returns and Ind AS 115 reporting.

For official guidance on Ind AS 115 revenue recognition, refer to the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (mca.gov.in).

Investors and auditors look first at whether recognised revenue, deferred revenue, and MRR tie out. Booking cash as revenue or letting the deferred revenue schedule drift leads to restatements, failed diligence, and delayed funding. Setting up Ind AS 115 recognition and clean metrics early means every fundraise and audit starts from a position of strength.
