Short HSN Code mentioned in Invoice


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses the correct HSN code format for invoices, specifically whether to use 4 or 6 digits. According to GST regulations, businesses with a turnover above ₹5 crore must use a 6-digit HSN code, while those below this threshold can use a 4-digit code. This requirement for 6-digit HSN codes has been in effect since April 2021.

03 April 2021 Respected Experts,

1) One of our clients has issued E-invoice by mentioning 4 digit HSN.
2) One of our clients has issued Tax Invoice by mentioning 4 digit HSN (Turnover above 5Cr.)

In the above case, what we do? Also request you to kindly guide what course of action to be done?

Waiting for a valuable reply.

Regards,

Rakesh Sharma


04 April 2021 You have to mention HSN as per your turnover. If your's turnover is above 5crore then you have to mention 6 Digit and if it is below 5 crore then only 4 Digit. You can search HSN on below link Goods & Services Tax (GST) | Services

08 April 2021 6 digit HSN code requirement in case of turnover above Rs 5 cr applies w.e.f. April 2021 only.
