GSTN enables Auto-population of HSN description based on HSN Code

The Goods and Service Tax Network (GSTN) enabled the Auto-population of Harmonized System of Nomenclature (HSN) description based on HSN code on the GST portal

The main purpose of HSN is to classify goods from all over the World in a systematic and logical manner.

 

The taxpayers have to prepare HSN-Wise Summary to capture the Correct HSN and Rate.

 

W.E.F the 1st April, 2021, it has been made mandatory for a GST taxpayer, having turnover of more than Rs 5 crore in the preceding financial year, to furnish 6 digits HSN Code (Harmonised System of Nomenclature Code), or as the case may be, SAC (Service Accounting Code) on the invoices issued for supplies of taxable goods and services. 

 

A taxpayer having turnover of upto Rs 5 crore in the preceding financial year is required to mandatorily furnish 4 digits HSN code on B2B invoices

 

Earlier, the requirement was 4 digits and 2 digits respectively. For more details, notification No. 78/2020-Central Tax, dated 15.10.2020 

 

This brings in a uniform classification of goods and facilitates international trade.

 

 Now the section of the Auto population of HSN Description consists of HSN, Description, UQC, Total Quantity, Total Taxable Value, Rate, Integrates tax (IGST), Central Tax (CGST), State or Union Territory Tax (SGST OR UTGST), and Cess.
