Summary
Yes. Merchants can configure product tax information in ShopIQ where supported. However, tax filing, tax audits, GST compliance, invoicing rules, and legal tax decisions should be handled with the help of a qualified tax consultant or professional advisor.
Who this is for: Merchants who want to configure product-level tax settings and understand their tax responsibilities while selling through a ShopIQ store.
Can I manage taxes in ShopIQ?
Yes. Merchants can configure product tax information in ShopIQ where supported. Product tax configuration helps merchants manage tax-related information for products and checkout workflows. However, tax configuration inside ShopIQ is not a replacement for professional tax advice, accounting, filing, or audit support.
Can I configure product tax?
Yes. Product tax can be configured for products where supported. This may help merchants define tax treatment for products according to their business category, product type, and applicable tax requirements. Merchants should confirm the correct tax rate and tax treatment with a professional tax consultant.
Does ShopIQ file taxes for merchants?
No. ShopIQ does not file taxes on behalf of merchants. Merchants are responsible for tax filing, GST returns, audits, invoicing compliance, accounting records, reconciliation, and legal tax obligations.
Does ShopIQ provide tax advice?
No. ShopIQ does not provide legal, accounting, or tax advice. Merchants should consult a qualified CA, tax consultant, accountant, or professional advisor for tax decisions.
Who is responsible for GST compliance?
The merchant is responsible for GST compliance. This may include:
- GST registration, if applicable
- Correct GST rate selection
- Product classification
- Tax invoice rules
- Filing GST returns
- Maintaining records
- Reconciling payments
- Handling tax audits
- Understanding state and central tax rules
- Managing export or interstate tax rules, if applicable
Can different products have different tax rates?
Product tax can be configured at the product level where supported. This is useful because different product categories may have different tax treatment. Merchants should verify applicable tax rates with a professional advisor.
Can taxes affect checkout?
Yes. Tax configuration can affect order totals, invoices, and customer-facing pricing depending on the store setup. Merchants should test checkout after configuring tax settings to ensure that prices, totals, and tax information display correctly.
Can coupons affect tax calculation?
Coupons can affect order value and may affect taxable value depending on applicable rules and merchant accounting treatment. Merchants should consult a tax professional to understand how discounts, coupons, free shipping, refunds, and cancellations affect tax records.
Can refunds and cancellations affect taxes?
Yes. Refunds and cancellations may affect tax reporting, invoice adjustments, credit notes, and reconciliation. Merchants should consult a tax professional for correct handling.
Does tax configuration consume AI credits?
Manual tax configuration does not consume AI credits. AI credits may be consumed if the merchant uses AI to draft tax-related policy content, summarize order data, or analyze sales. Merchants should not rely on AI as a tax advisor.
What should merchants check before going live?
- Product tax rates
- Product classification
- Tax-inclusive or tax-exclusive pricing behavior
- Checkout totals
- Invoice requirements
- Coupon impact
- Shipping charge tax treatment
- Refund and cancellation tax handling
- GST registration requirements

Tax responsibility belongs to the merchant. ShopIQ can help configure product tax information, but filing, audit, compliance, and tax interpretation should be handled through a qualified tax consultant or professional advisor.
