What changed on 22 September 2025
On 22 September 2025 GST moved to three main rates: 5%, 18% and 40%. The 12% and 28% rates were removed.
Most hardware did not change. Hinges, locks, handles, screws, nails, tools, power tools, pipes, taps, sanitary ware, paints, adhesives, electrical goods, glass, plywood and aluminium are still 18%.
What did change: cement went from 28% to 18%. Steel household articles such as ghamela, buckets and kitchen items went from 12% to 5%, and so did ropes and wheelbarrows. Spades, shovels, pickaxes and axes stay at nil.
If your item list still shows 12% or 28% on anything, it is out of date. Correct it before your next bill.
How many digits to print
The usual rule: if your turnover in the last financial year was up to ₹5 crore, print at least the first 4 digits of the HSN on bills to registered customers. Above ₹5 crore, print 6 digits on every bill. The list gives the full 8-digit code, so take the first 4 or 6 digits from it. Printing all 8 is also fine.
Mistakes we see on hardware bills
- One code for the whole shop. 8302 covers door and furniture fittings. It does not cover locks (8301), screws (7318) or tools (8202 to 8207).
- Wall hooks under 8308. 8308 is for hooks and eyes on clothes and shoes. Wall hooks, coat hooks and brackets are 8302 50 00.
- Material instead of use. A brass hinge and a steel hinge are both hinges (8302 10), but the last digits change: 10 for steel, 20 for brass, 90 for other metals.
- No code on labour or fitting charges. Services have their own SAC codes. Ask your CA which one applies to you.
How KC Billing handles HSN
Each item in your list carries its HSN and GST rate. When you type the model code, both fill in on the bill. The bill prints the HSN on every line and an HSN-wise tax summary at the bottom, which is what your CA needs for the return.
