Smart HSN suggestions on stock items

How it works

1. Open Create Stock Item (Alt+I).
2. Choose Product (Goods) or Service. Suggestions are filtered to HSN for goods and SAC for services.
3. Click the HSN / SAC Code field and start typing: a code such as 8302, or a word such as cement or consulting. After two characters a suggestion list appears.
4. Each suggestion shows the code, its level (Chapter, Heading or Subheading), the official description and the GST rate.
5. Use ↑ ↓ and Enter, or click a suggestion. The code, Taxability and IGST Rate fill in.
6. Check the values and click Save Stock Item.

Picking the right level

A 2-digit chapter or 4-digit heading is often too broad for an invoice. Keep typing or scroll to a 6- or 8-digit code that describes your product, especially if your turnover is above ₹5 crore (6 digits required).

Tips

• If a code shows more than one rate, open the HSN Finder for the conditions (for example packaged versus loose) before choosing.
• No match? Try a simpler word (phone rather than smartphone 5G), or search by the chapter number you expect.
• Nothing is saved until you click Save, so you can try a few searches safely.
