Straight answers on digits, penalties, and whether AI classification is a legal ruling.
HSN (Harmonised System of Nomenclature) codes classify goods used in import, export, and GST. SAC (Services Accounting Code) codes classify services under GST. Customs filings always need the full 8-digit HSN; GST invoices may use 4 or 6 digits depending on turnover.
For GST invoices: turnover up to ₹5 crore needs 4-digit HSN; ₹5–50 crore needs 6-digit; above ₹50 crore needs 8-digit. For customs import or export, the full 8-digit code is always required under the Customs Tariff Act 1975.
Under Section 114A of the Customs Act 1962, a penalty of up to 100% of the evaded duty can be levied for mis-declaration, including wrong HSN classification. Goods can be detained and a Show Cause Notice issued.
Yes. Section 149 of the Customs Act 1962 permits amendment if supported by documentary evidence. Short-paid duty attracts interest. Significant changes may need a prior order from the Commissioner of Customs.
