How to find the HSN code for your product
- Type what you sell. In your words, such as “kurti”, “dupatta” or “saree”. The finder shows the code, its 6-digit sub-heading where we have it, and the rate.
- Check knitted or woven. Knitted garments are chapter 61, woven ones chapter 62; ask your supplier how the fabric is made.
- Read the band against your price. The rate follows each piece’s sale value, not the code. Work out the tax in the GST calculator.
- Copy the right number of digits. On a tax invoice: 4 digits up to ₹5 crore turnover, 6 above, from 1 Apr 2021 (Notification 78/2020-Central Tax). In the GSTR-1 HSN summary (Table 12): at least 2 digits up to ₹5 crore, 6 above, from 1 Aug 2022 (GSTN advisory, retrieved 4 Oct 2026).
