Fixing common Amazon Business issues
Fix: Verify GSTIN is active on the GST portal (gst.gov.in) and matches the legal entity name exactly. Correct spelling, spacing or address mismatches, then retry.
Fix: Confirm the seller is Business Account-enabled (marked with a 'GST' badge). Consumer-only sellers cannot issue GST invoices. Filter search by 'GST Invoice Available'.
Fix: Reconfigure approval thresholds by category or department. Add a fallback approver so orders don't stall when the primary approver is on leave.
Fix: If your monthly Amazon Business spend is under ₹40K, Prime often doesn't pay back. Model shipping savings vs subscription cost before enrolling.
