A GSTIN is 15 characters, and the state code is only the first two. Here is what each part of a Jammu & Kashmir GSTIN carries:
| Position | Value | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1–2 | 01 | State code — Jammu & Kashmir. This is the part that identifies where the registration sits. |
| 3–12 | PAN | The 10-character PAN of the business or person registered. |
| 13 | 1–9, A–Z | How many registrations that PAN holds in Jammu & Kashmir. Usually 1. |
| 14 | Z | Fixed. Always Z in a valid GSTIN. |
| 15 | check digit | A checksum over the first 14 characters. This is what catches a typo. |
Two GSTINs beginning 01 therefore belong to two different businesses registered in Jammu & Kashmir — the state code alone never identifies a company. To find out who a number belongs to, look up the GSTIN.
Does a Supply From Jammu & Kashmir Attract CGST + SGST or IGST?
The state code is what decides this, and getting it wrong is one of the most common invoicing errors.
- Buyer also in Jammu & Kashmir (place of supply code 01) — the supply is intra-state. Charge CGST + SGST, split equally.
- Buyer in any other state or UT — the supply is inter-state. Charge IGST at the full rate instead.
Compare the first two digits of your GSTIN with the first two of the buyer's and the answer follows. Our GST calculator works out the split for you, and place of supply explains the cases where the buyer's address is not the deciding factor.

Which state is GST state code 01?
GST state code 01 is Jammu & Kashmir, a union territory. Every GSTIN whose first two digits are 01 belongs to a taxpayer registered in Jammu & Kashmir. Its ISO 3166-2:IN alpha code is JK.
What does a GSTIN starting with 01 mean?
The first two digits of a GSTIN are the state code, so a GSTIN starting 01 means the taxpayer holds that registration in Jammu & Kashmir. The next ten characters are the PAN, the thirteenth is the registration count for that PAN in the state, the fourteenth is always Z, and the fifteenth is a check digit.
Is a supply from Jammu & Kashmir charged CGST and SGST or IGST?
If the place of supply is also in Jammu & Kashmir — that is, the buyer's state code is also 01 — the supply is intra-state and attracts CGST plus SGST. If the buyer is in any other state or union territory, it is inter-state and attracts IGST instead.
