Which GST office covers Gorakhpur?

On the State side, the Gorakhpur zone of Uttar Pradesh's State Tax department. On the Central side, the CGST Varanasi Commissionerate. Search your GSTIN under Search Taxpayer on the GST portal to see your own range, sector and division.

I sell to chemists in Bihar. What changes on the bill?

A sale from Uttar Pradesh to a buyer in Bihar is inter-state, so the bill carries IGST instead of CGST and SGST. ValueSoft applies IGST when the buyer's state is different from yours. An E-Way Bill is needed when the consignment is worth more than ₹50,000, and ValueSoft makes it from the bill.

What does pharma wholesale software cost in Gorakhpur?

ValueSoft costs the same everywhere in India: ₹5,600 (Mini), ₹7,300 (Lite), ₹9,200 (Plus), ₹9,500 (Basic), ₹12,500 (Max), one-time, GST included. The plans differ in monthly billing limits and features; e-Invoice and E-Way Bill come in Mini, Lite, Plus and Max. See the pricing page.

Does ValueSoft need the internet?

Not for daily work: billing, stock and accounts run on your Windows PC without internet. e-Invoice, E-Way Bill, GST filing from the software, WhatsApp messages and the mobile apps need internet.

Last updated: 23 October 2026

Gorakhpur's wholesale medicine market is in Bhalotia Market. Amar Ujala reported in October 2024 that it does about ₹2 crore of medicine business a day, and that medicines go from here to retailers in the Gorakhpur and Basti divisions and to the border areas of Bihar and Nepal. This page is for the pharma wholesalers, distributors and stockists who run that trade.

Where is Gorakhpur's medicine wholesale trade?

Bhalotia Market is the city's dawa ki thok mandi (wholesale medicine market). With buyers spread over two divisions of eastern Uttar Pradesh and across the state border, a wholesaler here may bill chemists in many districts, some of them in another state.

The city also has two large medical institutions: AIIMS Gorakhpur at Kunraghat, and BRD Medical College. For a wholesaler, that mix of chemists, hospitals and outstation buyers means a lot of bills, a lot of batches and careful GST on every sale.

Which GST and drug licence offices serve Gorakhpur?

A medicine wholesaler deals with the State tax department and the Central tax (CGST) commissionerate for GST, and with the State drug control office for the wholesale drug licence. In brief, as of 23 October 2026:

GST

State tax. Uttar Pradesh's State Tax department is organised in zones, ranges and sectors, and Gorakhpur has its own zone, headed by an Additional Commissioner Grade I.

Central tax. Gorakhpur district comes under the CGST Varanasi Commissionerate, whose area also includes Varanasi, Deoria, Kushinagar, Maharajganj, Sant Kabir Nagar and Siddharth Nagar, among others (Notification 2/2017-Central Tax).

Wholesale drug licence

In Uttar Pradesh, drug sale licences come from the Food Safety and Drug Administration (FSDA). For a wholesale licence you apply on Form 19 and the licence is granted on Forms 20B and 21B. You register on the Nivesh Mitra single-window portal, create a unit and apply, and you are taken to the FSDA portal to complete the form; the fee is paid through Nivesh Mitra. FSDA's fee list shows ₹3,000 (₹1,500 + ₹1,500) for Forms 20B and 21B. Your pharmacist or competent person also registers on the FSDA portal and is approved by the Drug Inspector, who verifies the application before the Drug Licensing Authority approves it.

Your own GST jurisdiction, State and Central, is shown when you search your GSTIN under Search Taxpayer on the GST portal (gst.gov.in). This page is general information, not legal advice: confirm details with your CA and the drug control office before you apply or file.

What does a Gorakhpur wholesale bill need?

Rule 65(5) of the Drugs Rules, 1945 says every wholesale supply must be made against a cash or credit memo that carries your name, address and licence number, and shows:

the date of sale;
the buyer's name, address and sale licence number (for a hospital, a doctor or a government buyer, their name and address);
the name of the drug, the quantity and the batch number;
the name of the manufacturer, and the signature of the competent person under whose supervision the sale was made.

Copies are kept for three years. The same bill is your GST tax invoice, so it also needs the buyer's GSTIN (if registered), the HSN code and the right tax. ValueSoft prints your drug licence number and the buyer's on every bill, and bills each item batch-wise with its expiry and MRP. Not sure how PTR and PTS (price to stockist) are worked out from MRP? Try our PTR / PTS calculator.

GST rules for medicine wholesalers in Uttar Pradesh

State code 09. Every GSTIN registered in Uttar Pradesh starts with 09. A sale to a buyer inside Uttar Pradesh carries CGST and SGST; a sale to a buyer in another state carries IGST. Sales from Gorakhpur to chemists in Bihar are inter-state: the bill carries IGST, and an E-Way Bill is needed when the consignment is worth more than ₹50,000. Goods that cross into Nepal are exports, which have their own GST and customs rules; ask your CA.
Rate. Since 22 September 2025, drugs and medicines are taxed at 5% GST, apart from those notified at nil rate.
E-Way Bill. Rule 138 of the CGST Rules asks for an E-Way Bill before goods worth more than ₹50,000 move. For movement inside Uttar Pradesh, the State's own notification sets the limit, so check the current figure with your CA.
e-Invoice. Needed for B2B invoices, credit notes and debit notes once your aggregate turnover crossed ₹5 crore in any financial year from 2017-18 (from 1 August 2023). At ₹10 crore or more, each one must be reported to the IRP within 30 days (from 1 April 2025).

ValueSoft picks CGST and SGST or IGST from the buyer's state, so the bill and your GSTR-1 match. Use the GST calculator for a quick check on any amount.
