How to Customize HSN Summary Reports in Tally Prime Silver?

In the world of GST compliance, HSN (Harmonized System of Nomenclature) codes play a crucial role in classifying goods and services. For businesses operating under GST, generating accurate and detailed HSN summaries is not just a regulatory requirement but also a way to maintain transparency in reporting. Tally Prime Silver, the single-user edition of Tally Prime, provides an efficient way to generate enhanced HSN summaries that simplify compliance while improving business insights.

What is an HSN Summary?

An HSN Summary is a consolidated report that displays details of outward and inward supplies grouped by their respective HSN codes. The report helps taxpayers analyze turnover, tax amounts, and other related information linked to each HSN. Under GST rules, businesses whose turnover exceeds the prescribed threshold must include HSN-wise details in their returns.
