What is HSN code?
HSN (Harmonized System of Nomenclature) is a global product classification system used in India for GST. SAC (Services Accounting Code) is the equivalent for services. Correct codes on invoices help with returns, ITC, and audits.
HSN structure (simplified)
- First 2 digits: Chapter (e.g. 84 = machinery)
- Next 2 digits: Heading (e.g. 8471 = computers)
- Further digits: Sub-heading and tariff item (more specific product)
When is HSN mandatory?
| Annual turnover | HSN digits |
|---|---|
| Up to ₹5 crore | 4 digits optional on B2C |
| ₹5 crore – ₹500 crore | 4 digits mandatory (B2B) |
| Above ₹500 crore | 6 digits mandatory |
