How to Get a GST Invoice from Ola
Ola sends a GST tax invoice PDF to your registered email address when a ride ends. If you need to download it again, open the Ola app, tap the menu (☰), go to "Your Rides", select the trip, and tap "Support > I need an invoice for this ride". The invoice displays a 5% GST line under SAC Code 996412 for your travel claim.

Where to Find the GSTIN on Ola's Invoice
Finance and HR teams check for the vendor's registered 15-character GSTIN before approving reimbursement claims:
To prevent finance from rejecting your ride claim, ensure the GSTIN is visible. On Ola's PDF, ANI Technologies Private Limited's 15-digit GSTIN is printed in the Tax Invoice box at the bottom left.
Which number goes where on your expense sheet
Most company expense templates ask for the base amount and the GST in separate columns. The total is the exact amount you get reimbursed:
A ₹315 Ola city cab ride with 5% GST. On a ₹300.00 base fare, 5% GST is ₹15.00, split as ₹7.50 CGST and ₹7.50 SGST on your bill.
| Expense Sheet Column | Tax Rate | Amount (₹) |
|---|---|---|
| Base Fare / Price (Pre-Tax) | - | ₹300.00 |
| CGST (Central Tax) | 2.5% | ₹7.50 |
| SGST (State Tax) | 2.5% | ₹7.50 |
| Total Amount Claimed | 5% Total | ₹315.00 |
How the tax appears on the receipt — intra-state orders split it in two (CGST + SGST), while inter-state orders show one single line (IGST). You can calculate any custom amount with our free GST Calculator.
