GST on mobile accessories after GST 2.0
Accessories each have their own HSN code: chargers and adapters under 8504 40, earphones, headphones and speakers under 8518, memory cards and pen drives under 8523, and batteries and power-bank cells under 8507. All of these are 18%. Phone covers and screen guards depend on the material, so check the supplier invoice.
Before you set the rate in your billing software, match the code to the item exactly: the first four digits name the heading, and the six- or eight-digit line decides the rate where a heading is split. When your supplier invoice shows a longer code, use that one.
Billing mobile accessories correctly
- Print the HSN or SAC code on every line (4 digits up to ₹5 crore turnover, 6 digits above).
- Charge CGST + SGST inside your state and IGST for other states — the free GST invoice generator does this from the place of supply.
- For a price that includes GST, take the tax out by subtraction with the GST calculator.
- Check every B2B buyer's GST number with the GSTIN checker.
