HSN/SAC is not getting printed in the

invoice. Why?
Ensure that you specify both HSN/SAC and tax rates at the same level (Ledger or Group or
Stock item or Stock group or Company) in Tally.ERP 9. If you have specified the HSN/SAC for
stock items at any one level, do not specify the same at other levels.

When recording a transaction, Tally.ERP 9 looks for tax-related details in the following order:

Ledger > Group > Stock item > Stock group > Company

HSN/SAC may not be printed in the invoice if

HSN/SAC is entered at the group level, but tax rate is entered at the ledger level

HSN/SAC is entered at the stock item level, but tax rate is entered at ledger group or
ledger level

HSN/SAC is entered at the stock group level, but tax rate is entered at the stock item,
stock group, or ledger level

HSN/SAC is entered at the company level, but tax rate is entered at another level

To print the HSN/SAC in the invoice, ensure that the tax rate and HSN/SAC are defined at the
same level.

Let's consider the following scenarios:

Scenario 1: If you have stock items attracting a specific tax rate (say 12%) under a stock
group and other stock items attracting different tax rates:

Provide the HSN/SAC and tax rates applicable for the items with 12% tax rate at the
stock group level.

Provide the HSN/SAC and tax rates for other stock items individually at the stock
item levels.
Scenario 2: If you have entered the HSN/SAC and tax rates at the stock group or stock item
level, as well as at the sales ledger level, the HSN/SAC will not be printed in the invoice. In
this case, HSN code at the sales ledger level is not needed. To remove the HSN/SAC from the
sales ledger:

Go to Gateway of Tally > Accounts Info. > Ledgers > Alter and
set Taxability as Unknown and save the sales ledger.

Alternatively, in the Ledger Alteration screen, press Alt+L to set


the Taxability to Unknown in the Tax Rate History screen.

Removing HSN/SAC
If you saved the HSN/SAC at any level, you can delete it using the Tax Rate History option in
the GST Details screen.

Press Alt+L in the GST Details screen, and delete the HSN/SAC from the Tax Rate
History screen.
