## How the HSN Code Finder works

 

HSN (Harmonised System of Nomenclature) codes classify goods for GST, while SAC codes classify services. You type a product name and the finder matches it to the likely HSN/SAC code and the GST rate slab (typically 0%, 5%, 12%, 18%, or 28%) that applies to it. Businesses with turnover up to ₹5 crore must quote a 4-digit HSN on B2B invoices, and those above ₹5 crore must use 6 digits.

 

### Worked example

 

Searching 'cotton t-shirt' points to HSN 6109, which covers T-shirts and vests. Knitted cotton apparel priced up to ₹1,000 per piece is taxed at 5% GST, while pieces above ₹1,000 attract 12% GST, so a ₹1,499 t-shirt is billed with 12% GST.

 

## Frequently asked questions

  How many HSN digits do I need to show on my GST invoice?

If your annual turnover is up to ₹5 crore you must quote at least 4 digits on B2B invoices (2 digits was earlier allowed but is now largely phased out); above ₹5 crore you must quote 6 digits. For exports, 8 digits are required.

 What is the difference between HSN and SAC codes?

HSN codes are for goods and SAC (Service Accounting Codes) are for services. A tailor selling readymade garments uses an HSN code, but the stitching service he provides uses a SAC code.

 Where do I confirm the exact GST rate for my product?

Always verify on the official GST portal (gst.gov.in) or the CBIC rate finder, since rates and classifications change through GST Council notifications. This tool gives an indicative match only.

 Two products in my shop look similar but the codes differ. Why?

HSN classification depends on material, use, and value slab. For example, footwear, apparel, and many textiles have rate cut-offs based on price per piece, so the same category can fall under different rates.
