Every GSTIN begins with the code of the state or union territory where the business is registered. The same code is printed as the place of supply on tax invoices and e-way bills, and it decides whether IGST or CGST + SGST applies.

Why the state code matters on an invoice

When the supplier's state code and the place of supply are the same, the sale is intra-state and carries CGST + SGST. When they differ, it is inter-state and carries IGST. A wrong state code puts the tax under the wrong head, and the buyer's credit with it.

Codes that changed

Andhra Pradesh moved to code 37 after Telangana (36) was formed; 28 belongs to old registrations. Daman and Diu (25) merged with Dadra and Nagar Haveli into code 26 in 2020. Ladakh has code 38. Code 97 is used for Other Territory and 99 for Centre Jurisdiction.
