"HSN is invalid as per customs tariff, provide valid 8 digit HSN from vendor"

What you see

HSN is invalid as per customs tariff, provide valid 8 digit HSN from vendor

The feed may sit at System Processing rather than failing Auto QC.

What it means

Ajio does not accept the supplied HSN as a valid eight-digit customs tariff code for the product.

Why it happens

The source may contain a shortened code, a value copied from a different product type, or a code that does not match the brand's tax treatment. Because HSN affects tax liability, this is not a field to infer from similar garments.

The placement of the failure is misleading: the product can clear QC and then remain in System Processing indefinitely.

How to fix it

Ask the brand's finance or tax team for the valid eight-digit HSN used for that product. Replace the value in the owning feed's correction file and re-upload it under a new filename.

If a finance-approved code still stalls, send the feed ID, product identifiers and approved HSN to your Ajio SPOC for confirmation of the portal's tax expectation.

How to avoid it next time

Source HSN from the brand's finance team.
Require exactly eight digits in the catalogue input.
Never derive a code from product descriptions or another marketplace.
Monitor System Processing separately from Auto and Manual QC.
Batch unresolved tax questions into one SPOC message.
