Using 9401 on a GST invoice
Save 9401 against the item once in your billing system, along with its rate. From then on every bill prints the code on the line, applies 18% automatically, and rolls the value into the HSN-wise summary that has to reconcile with your GSTR-1.
The split follows the place of supply, not the code: sell within your own state and the 18% becomes 9% CGST plus 9% SGST; sell across a state border and the same total is charged as a single IGST line. Getting this wrong rarely changes what the customer pays, but it files the tax under the wrong head — which is exactly the mismatch that draws a notice.
If you are checking a rate by hand, our free GST calculator works out the CGST/SGST split for both tax-inclusive and tax-exclusive prices, and the HSN code finder searches the whole list by product name.
