Specialty design services (graphic, fashion, industrial design)

Why this code: Freelance design work — logos, brand identity, fashion, industrial, interior — bills under SAC 998391 at 18% GST.

Conditional note: Freelancer / sole proprietor? GST registration is mandatory once aggregate turnover crosses ₹20 lakh (₹10L in special-category states). Below that, you can invoice without GST. Inter-state services trigger registration regardless of turnover.
