Understanding GSTR-2 Part 12

In our previous blog ‘How to file GSTR-2 Part 11’, we discussed about filing GSTR-2 with addition and reduction in output tax amount due to mismatch and other reasons. In this blog, we will discuss about filing GSTR-2 HSN summary of inward supplies.
 

Filing GSTR-2 Table 13

In filing GSTR-2 Table 13, HSN wise summary of supplies effected during the month needs to be reported. It will be optional for businesses having an annual turnover up to Rs. 1.5 Crore. However, description of goods is mandatory.
For businesses, having an annual turnover in the preceding year above Rs. 1.5 Cr. but up to Rs. 5 Cr, it is mandatory to report HSN code at the two-digit level and at a four-digit level for businesses having an annual turnover above Rs. 5 Cr.
In column 4, UQC refers to unit quantity code and only the prescribed unit of measure (UoM) will be accepted by the portal. Therefore, irrespective of the UOM maintained by the taxpayer, the quantity details need to be furnished using the prescribed UQC listed below:
