Frank,
Read the wiki and spent better part of my day trying to generate a template,
but I am sorry to say I give up.
The wiki assumes one is familiar with xml and how gnucash uses xml - neither of
which I am comfortable with.
I have created XML file and created pull request too.

Having spent all day thinking about this, I am now wondering whether it would
have been a futile effort even if I had succeeded in making a template.
Reason being - my use case for GST is only a subset of what Amish laid out.
Even if we attempt to put Amish's comprehensive setup as a template, it cannot
be used by all GST users in India. What we have posted is only one aspect of
GST in India, mainly covering GSTR-3B and GSTR-1/2 components of the return.
Then there are other aspects such as -
- composition dealers
- e-way bills (launched recently)
- export related services and such…
Yes but there are many more normal GST dealers than GST composition
dealers. For composition dealers I guess there will be even less
accounts. So they can use template and remove unwanted accounts.
E-way bill - not sure if that would be part of Gnucash anyway. User can
put a note in Invoice stating e-way bill number
Export services - I have no idea about their returns but that should not
stop us from creating normal templates which can become a starting point.
Thanks and regards,
Amish.
