04 May 2023 DEAR SIR,

HSN of credit note should be shown separately as minus figures or should it be adjusted and show this with other HSN??

09 July 2024 When preparing a credit note in GST (Goods and Services Tax), it is important to accurately reflect the adjustments related to the original invoice. Here’s how you should handle the HSN (Harmonized System of Nomenclature) codes on a credit note:

1. **Separate Reporting:** The HSN code on the credit note should be reported separately from the HSN codes on the original invoice. This is because a credit note is issued to adjust specific transactions related to the original invoice.

2. **Negative Figures:** The values on the credit note should be shown as negative figures to indicate adjustments against the corresponding positive values on the original invoice. This applies to both the total invoice value and the respective HSN code values.

3. **Adjustment and Reporting:** When reporting in GST returns (such as GSTR-1), ensure that the adjustments made through the credit note are correctly reflected against the corresponding original invoice details. This helps in reconciling and maintaining accurate records for GST compliance.

4. **Compliance with GST Rules:** Following these practices ensures compliance with GST rules and helps in maintaining transparency in your financial transactions.

Therefore, the HSN of the credit note should be shown separately with negative figures to clearly indicate adjustments made against the original invoice. This approach helps in proper reconciliation and compliance with GST regulations.
