HSN vs SAC on a GST invoice

HSN classifies goods. SAC classifies services. GST invoices need the code on lines so returns and e-way documents can match the supply.

Educational summary. Not legal, tax, or filing advice. Confirm with the notified GST law and your Chartered Accountant.

HSN

Harmonized System of Nomenclature codes classify goods. Invoice lines for goods carry HSN at the digit length your turnover and notifications require.

SAC

Services Accounting Codes classify services. Service invoices carry SAC, not a made-up goods HSN.

In this product

Each line can store HSN or SAC with the rate. The PDF prints the code. We do not download the entire GST rate schedule for you. Your CA or the tariff tells you which code to use.
