Why It’s Important to Use the Correct HSN Code on Your Invoice

Properly identifying Non-metal waste and scrap recovery (recycling) services, on a fee or contract basis with the right HSN code is critical for multiple reasons:

Legal Requirement: Indian tax authorities require HSN codes on invoices. Failure to include them or using incorrect codes can result in legal issues and financial penalties.
Avoiding Tax Errors: Accurate HSN classification helps prevent overcharging or undercharging of taxes on goods and services. The right code ensures correct GST rate application and accurate tax calculation.
Customs Processing: When importing or exporting, Indian customs authorities rely on the HSN code to assess duties. Accurate coding helps streamline customs processes, reducing delays or disputes.
Audits and Record-Keeping: Accurate HSN code documentation is vital for audits and record-keeping, ensuring businesses can provide accurate and verifiable records of transactions when required.
