HSN and GST rates — common questions
How many digits of HSN must I show on my invoice?
If your turnover in the previous year was up to ₹5 crore, show at least 4 digits on B2B invoices. Above ₹5 crore, show at least 6 digits on all invoices. Importers and exporters use the full 8-digit code. Using 8 digits everywhere is the safest practice.
Why does an item show “5% or 18%”?
Some items have two rates depending on details — for example, clothing and footwear are 5% up to ₹2,500 sale value and 18% above, and some machinery parts are 5% only when used for specified renewable-energy devices. Check the condition or ask us.
Is this the latest GST rate?
Rates follow the GST 2.0 structure effective 22 September 2025 (Notification 9/2025-Central Tax (Rate)), with the tobacco changes from 1 February 2026 (Notification 19/2025). Rates can change after a GST Council meeting, so confirm before a large order or a new product.
What is the GST rate on services?
Services use SAC codes (starting with 99). Most services are taxed at 18%; some, like goods transport, hotels and specific job work, have special rates. Send us a short description and we will confirm the SAC and rate.
My product is not in the list. What should I do?
Search by a simpler word or the first 4 digits of the code you think is right. If you still cannot find it, WhatsApp us a photo and description of the product — classification depends on what the product is made of and how it is used.
HSN list and rate mapping adapted from the open khata-standard dataset (CC BY 4.0), which is based on CBIC notifications 9/2025 and 19/2025-Central Tax (Rate). General guidance only — classification of a specific product can differ.
