SAC Code Finder FAQ
What buyers ask.
Inter-state vs intra-state services. How is it handled?
Each SAC carries the Section 12 / 13 place-of-supply rule. The system reads the customer location at invoice time and applies CGST + SGST (intra-state) or IGST (inter-state) automatically. Manual override is captured with reason for the audit trail.
Export of services. Zero-rated treatment?
Yes. Services to a foreign customer with payment in convertible foreign currency (and the recipient outside India) are zero-rated under Section 16 IGST Act. Choose LUT (without payment of tax) or refund route. The SAC and treatment are captured at the invoice; LUT validity is tracked.
Bundled supply (goods + services). Which SAC or HSN?
Composite supply (one principal supply with ancillary services, e.g., AMC with spare parts) takes the rate of the principal supply. Mixed supply (independent items bundled) takes the highest rate. The system flags bundled invoices for review by the tax reviewer.
