Description of HSN

This discussion addresses a common issue with filing GSTR 1 using software, where the HSN description column remains blank. While HSN codes are mandatory, the software doesn't always auto-populate the description. The consensus is that you can file GSTR 1 without the description if your software doesn't capture it, as the HSN code itself is the critical element. However, it's noted that manual entry on the portal often retrieves the description automatically.
