My freelance situation: Hustler 45 student, just landed first paying clients. Current monthly income: ~₹15,000-25,000 (likely growing). Niche: social media + content for Punjab small businesses. Based in Bathinda.

I need the operational setup to handle this professionally.

Generate:

**## Invoice template** — list of fields a professional invoice must have (invoice number, date, services, amount, GSTIN field, HSN/SAC code placeholder, payment terms, late fee, etc.). Then a worked example with sample numbers — for invoicing a ₹10,000/month retainer client.

**## GST decision tree:**
- Income < ₹20L/year: stay unregistered, simple invoicing
- Income ₹20-50L/year: composition scheme option (1% turnover tax, simpler filing)
- Income ₹50L+: must register regular GST
- Plus 1 paragraph on how to track this so you don't miss the threshold.

**## Time-block template** — 1 sample week (Monday-Saturday) with hours blocked for client work, biz dev, learning, admin. Realistic for a Punjab freelancer (1-2 client calls/day, deep work blocks, evening WhatsApp window).

**## When to involve a CA** — 3 specific trigger points where DIY stops being smart (income > ₹15L, multiple clients across states, want to incorporate as Pvt Ltd).

Constraints: India-context throughout, NOT tax advice (recommend consulting a CA above ₹15-20L), NO "live your dream life / be your own boss" hype.

Tip: Be specific for better results!
