Rent HSN Codes with GST Rate for Property, Machinery and Vehicle Rent
The HSN code for rent depends on the type of property, machinery, or vehicle being rented and the nature of the service. Under GST, rental services are generally classified using SAC codes rather than HSN codes for goods. Property rent, machinery rental, vehicle hiring, and leasing services may have different GST classifications and rates.
