GST rate
The HSN/SAC schedule sets out codes and descriptions — not rates. GST rates are notified separately and revised by the GST Council, so check this code on the official CBIC rate finder rather than trusting any static list.

LekhaPro ships the whole schedule inside the app: it suggests the code when you create a product, warns when a code does not exist, and checks it against what you have actually billed — offline, on your own machine.
