About HSN & SAC Codes

HSN (Harmonised System of Nomenclature) codes classify goods under GST. Businesses with turnover up to ₹5 crore must use 4-digit HSN codes on B2B invoices (optional for B2C). Businesses with turnover above ₹5 crore must use 6-digit HSN codes on all invoices. 8-digit codes are mandatory for exports and imports.

SAC (Services Accounting Code) codes classify services under GST. All SAC codes are 6 digits starting with 99. All service providers must mention SAC codes on their GST invoices.

GST rates shown are indicative — verify with a CA or on the official GST portal for your specific product or service.

As per CBIC Notification 78/2020 (effective April 2021): turnover up to ₹5 crore → 4-digit HSN on B2B invoices. Turnover above ₹5 crore → 6-digit HSN on all invoices. Exporters and importers → 8-digit HSN mandatory.

What are the GST rates after the 56th GST Council meeting?

Effective 22 September 2025, GST rates for goods were rationalised into four slabs: Nil (0%), 5%, 18%, and 40% for luxury/demerit goods. The 12% slab was largely abolished. Special rates of 0.25% (rough diamonds) and 3% (gold, silver, precious metals) continue to apply.
