The invoice is required to be prepared before or at the time of
performing the activity of either removal or delivery of goods or making
available of the goods to the recipient. Thus, the obligation on supplier
of goods is to prepare the invoice latest by performing any of the above
three activities. For example, say a person Mr. X dispatches the goods
to Mr. Y from his godown in Jaipur on 28/07/2017. Mr. X can send the
invoice to Mr. Y before 28/07/2017 or must prepare the invoice before
this date. The meaning of removal is as follows:
REMOVAL - Section 2(96) of the GST Act defines 'removal' as
follows:
(96) "removal", in relation to goods, means -
(a) despatch of the goods for delivery by the supplier thereof or by
any other person acting on behalf of such supplier, or
(b) collection of the goods by the recipient thereof or by any other
person acting on behalf of such recipient;"

The clause (a) of the definition means that the goods are handed over
to any person for delivery to the recipient. The goods can be handed
over through courier, through other transporters or loaded on vehicle
owned by the supplier, etc. The substance is that the supplier while
giving the goods have the intention to dispatch the goods to the recipient.
The goods can be under the custody of the supplier or any person (say
agent) acting on behalf of the supplier. In case the goods are in the
custody of the agent, the goods will be handed over through courier,
through other transporters or loaded on vehicle owned by the agent.
This act of agent will also be considered as 'removal' by the principal.
The clause (b) of the definition is applicable when the recipient has sent
the conveyance or the person for the purpose of collection of goods
from the supplier. The contract may provide that the recipient may
organize the conveyance for transporting the goods to his location. In
such cases, the invoice shall be prepared on or before the goods are
handed over to the person representing the recipient..
