HSN code whether mandatory for B2C sales also
This query is : Resolved
Quick Summary
03 May 2024
When HSN Code is mandatory ? My client's sales includes B2B and B2 Sales (Total turn over between 2.00 to 5.00 crore). I think HSN code is mandatory in B2B Sales, but Tally Prime does not accept HSN code for B2B sales only. Sir, how to proceed in the matter ?

This is not issue. In HSN wise summary it's include. In GSTR 1 return table it's not required. For sales invoice preparation it's also available. So, keep it as its.

1. Turnover up to ₹5 crore:
B2B supplies: HSN code (min. 4 digits) is mandatory.
B2C supplies: HSN code is optional.
2. Turnover above ₹5 crore: HSN code (6 digits) is mandatory for both B2B and B2C supplies.
3. GSTR-1 Filing (Table 12 HSN Summary):
GSTN now requires separate HSN entries for B2B and B2C supplies. The B2B section is mandatory—even for B2C-only taxpayers. If you have no B2B sales, a temporary workaround is to fill in “0” in the B2B HSN row for smooth filing.
Summary Table:
Turnover Range B2B HSN Requirement B2C HSN Requirement
≤ ₹5 crore Mandatory (4-digit) Optional
> ₹5 crore Mandatory (6-digit) Mandatory (6-digit)
Remember to keep tabs on your PAN-wise turnover annually—this determines your HSN obligations even if one GSTIN shows lower revenue. Let me know if you'd like help configuring Tally Prime or other accounting software to capture HSN flexibly for both transaction types.
