Updated on: 14 Oct, 2024 02:49 PM

Chapter 99: SAC Codes & GST Rate For Services

When GST was introduced, the Central Board of Indirect Tax and Customs (CBIC) implemented the HSN and SAC code systems to simplify the classification of goods and services. This article provides a complete guide on SAC codes, including a list of SAC codes.


What is SAC Code in GST?

SAC stands for Service Accounting Code and is applicable to all the services rendered within India. This system is used for classifying, measuring and determining the applicability of GST services in India. The Harmonized System Nomenclature (HSN) code is used for Indian goods and follows the World Customs Organization’s global classification system. Meanwhile, the SAC code, based on the United Nations' classification, has been customized by the CBIC to fit the Indian context.

Under the GST regime, services are classified under SAC codes which are taaxed under 5 tax slabs i.e. 0, 5%,12%, 18%, 28%. However, services not classified under the SAC list attract an 18% levy of GST.


What is SAC Number?

An SAC code has 6 digits. Since services are covered under chapter 99 and all SAC codes statt with 99. The other 4 digits specify the nature of service. Herre’s an example, 995677 is an SAC code. Here,

  • 99 represents chapter which is common to all categories
  • 56 represents the heading of the major service category
  • 77 represents the service code of the nature of the major service.

What is the Use of SAC Code in GST?

SAC codes have the following uses -

  • Make it easy to distinguish different services by allocating unique codes to them.
  • It helps identify the GST rates applicable to different services.
  • GST taxpayers have to state these SAC codes while registering on the GST portal, in GST returns and invoices.
