CGST + SGST or IGST?

Selling within Jammu & Kashmir — seller and place of supply both under code 01 — splits the GST equally into CGST and SGST: an 18% supply becomes 9% + 9%. Selling from Jammu & Kashmir to any other code (or buying in from one) makes it an interstate supply with a single IGST line at the full rate. Your customer's GSTIN prefix is the quickest way to know which applies.

Since its 2019 reorganisation it is a union territory with its own legislature, and GST replaced the erstwhile state's separate tax regime, making J&K businesses part of the national credit chain. Handicrafts, horticulture (apples, saffron), and tourism dominate its registrations.
