GST Rate is the percentage of Goods and Services Tax charged on the supply of goods and services in India. Depending on the nature of the product or service, GST is applied under different tax slabs like 0%, 5%, 12%, 18%, and 28%. Correct classification ensures that businesses charge and pay the right amount of tax.
HSN Code (Harmonized System of Nomenclature): This is an internationally accepted system used to classify goods. Under GST in India, HSN codes are mandatory on invoices. For example, food items, textiles, or electronics each have unique HSN codes that decide the GST rate. The number of digits (2, 4, 6, or 8) required in the HSN code depends on the business turnover.
SAC Code (Services Accounting Code): SAC codes are used for identifying and categorizing services. For example, legal services, consultancy, hotel accommodation, or transport each have specific SAC codes. These codes ensure that services are billed with the correct GST rate.
Using the correct HSN or SAC code is very important because misclassification can result in over payment or underpayment of tax, notices from the GST department, and penalties during audits. Correct usage also makes invoicing easier and ensures smooth filing of GST returns.

I had a very complicated LLP striking off requirement. It took a long time due to Government (MCA) delays. Through out the period EbizFiling continued to support me and successfully completed the assignment. Truly stellar service, and I particularly want to thank Aman for his support. Will continue to do business with them.
I recently used eBiz Filing for my company's paperwork and was thoroughly impressed. The process was seamless from start to finish. Their knowledge of the compliance landscape is excellent, and they handled everything with utmost professionalism and speed.
