Use product taxation rules on Fynd Commerce to define how taxes are applied across your catalogue. You can create flexible tax rules based on **country**, **region** (state or city), or even **specific stores**, with the ability to define **slab-based tax components**.

*For example, if you're selling electronics across India, you might want to apply an 18% GST country-wide, but apply a reduced 12% Sales Tax in Karnataka. You can set this using region overrides.*

## View existing tax rules

1. Go to the **Company Panel**.
2. Click **Settings**, then click **Taxation**.


The taxation list includes:

* **Rule name** (e.g. *Luxury Goods Tax Rule*)
* **Tax name** (e.g. GST, Sales Tax)
* **Tax rate** (e.g. 8% to 22%)
* **Overrides** (e.g. 1 Region + 1 Store)
* **Action**: Click the **More options (⋯)** button to manage the rule


You can use the **Search** field to filter rules by name or description.
Click **Create Tax Rule** to begin creating a new rule.

## Create a new tax rule

### Step 1: Add tax details

* **Rule name**: Enter a name such as *Electronics GST Rule*
* **Description**: Optional note such as *Applies to mobile phones and laptops*


### Step 2: Use AI to suggest tax rates (optional)

You’ll see a prompt:

> “Describe what you want; we’ll suggest the tax rates.”


*Example input: Cotton shirts, leather shoes, electronic gadgets*

Click **→ (arrow button)** to continue, or choose **Create Manually** to skip suggestions and proceed directly to manual setup.

We'll create a tax rule manually here, so click **Create Manually** to configure the rule from scratch.

### Step 3: Add tax configuration

1. Click **Add** under **Tax Configuration**
2. Click one of the following options:
  * **Country Tax** (base rule)
  * **Region Override** (specific states or cities)
  * **Store Override** (specific stores)


You must configure **Country Tax** first. Region and Store overrides can be added after that.

## Configure country tax

Use Country Tax to define tax rules that apply nationwide.

### Steps to configure:

1. Click **Add**
2. Click **Country Tax**
3. The **Region type** will be pre-filled as *Country*
4. Select a country from the list (e.g. *India*)
5. Under **Tax Components**, provide:
  1. **Tax name**: Select from dropdown or enter a new name (e.g. GST, Sales Tax)
    1. If you select GST, the platform automatically calculates IGST, CGST, and UTGST
  2. **Tax slabs**:
    1. Click **+ Add Slab**
    2. For each slab, enter:
      1. **Value (₹)**: e.g. 0 or 15000
      2. **Tax Rate (%)**: e.g. 8% or 12%
6. Click **Save**


After you save:

- You cannot delete the Country Tax configuration.
- You cannot change its **effective date**.


## Configure region override

Use Region Overrides when specific states or cities require different tax rates.

**Example use case:**

* You apply 18% GST across India.
* In Karnataka, the state has a local Sales Tax of 12%.
* You want this new rate to apply only in Karnataka.


### Steps to configure:

1. Click **Add**
2. Click **Region Override**
3. In **Region type**, select either:
  1. **State**
  2. **City**
4. Under **Select States** or **Select Cities**, choose the required regions
  1. Example: *Andhra Pradesh*, *Mumbai*
5. Select the **Effective date**
  1. If today’s date is selected, it appears under the **Live** tab
  2. If a future date is selected, it appears under the **Scheduled** tab
6. Under **Tax Components**:
  1. Enter a **Tax name** (e.g. Sales Tax)
  2. Click **+ Add Slab** and define slab values and tax rates
7. Click **Save**


Region Overrides will take precedence over the Country Tax rule for the selected regions.
Once saved, you cannot change the effective date.

## Configure store override

Use Store Overrides to apply custom tax rules to individual stores.

*Example use case:*

* Your country-wide rate is 8%.
* You want your Delhi E-Way store to apply 20% due to special local taxation.
* Store overrides let you achieve this.


### Steps to configure:

1. Click **Add**
2. Click **Store Override**
3. In **Select Stores**, choose one or more stores
  1. Example: *DELHI EWAYBILL*, *AMWAY INDIA ENTERPRISES*
4. Select the **Effective date**
  1. Today's date places the rule under the **Live** tab
  2. Future dates place it under the **Scheduled** tab
5. Under **Tax Components**:
  1. Enter the **Tax name**
  2. Click **+ Add Slab** and define ranges and rates
    1. Example: ₹0 to ₹50,000 → 8%, above ₹50,000 → 20%
6. Click **Save**


Store Overrides take highest priority and override both Region and Country tax rules.
The effective date cannot be modified after saving.

## Tabs: Live and Scheduled

Tax configurations are grouped under:

### Live tab

* Displays all configurations effective from today or earlier
* Categories:
  * **Country Tax**
  * **Region Override**
  * **Store Override**
* Each entry displays:
  * **Slab breakdown**
  * **Location or store**
  * **Effective date**
  * **Edit** (✎) and **Delete** (🗑️) buttons


**Scheduled tab**

* Shows future-dated configurations
* Items are automatically moved to **Live** after the effective date


## Change Log

To view all configuration changes: Click **Change Log** at the top of the tax rule screen

The change log displays:

* **Tax name**
* **Slabs**
* **Region or store**
* **Effective date**
* **Status** (Live or Upcoming)


## Manage rules from the Taxation list

Each tax rule in the list includes a (**⋯)** *(More options)* button with:

* **Set as default**: Applies this rule by default when no override exists
* **Duplicate**: Create a copy of the rule
* **Delete**: Remove the rule (only if it’s not the base Country Tax)


## Rule application priority

The platform uses the following order to apply rules:

1. Store Override
2. Region Override (City > State)
3. Country Tax
4. Default tax rule (if no match)


*Example: A product sold in *XYZ company* store in *Karnataka* will use the Store Override, even if a Region Override or Country Tax also exists.*

- You cannot delete the Country Tax configuration.
- You cannot change its **effective date**.
