Recent HSN Changes - B2B and B2C

It looks like the GST portal has recently enforced mandatory separate HSN-wise reporting for both B2B and B2C supplies in Table 12 of GSTR-1.

This means that even if you only have B2C sales, you still need to separately report HSN details for them. Here’s what you can do to resolve the error and file your return: Go to Table 12 of GSTR-1 on the GST portal. 

Ensure that B2C HSN details are entered separately from B2B. The system won’t allow filing unless this segregation is done. Use the dropdown list provided by the GST portal to select the correct HSN code. 

Manual entry of HSN codes is no longer allowed. Validate the taxable value and tax amounts to match the outward supply tables. 

Save and file your return as usual. If you’re still facing issues, try preparing the HSN data offline using the Excel template provided by GSTN and upload it after verifying the B2B/B2C segregation.

where you enter HSN wise  sales in no.12 there is a separate tab for B2B and B2C. Please check on top.

Select the appropriate tab B2B or B2C and then enter the HSN wise sales.
