# Adding a product

> Add a new product to BillBasket with SKU, barcode, category, HSN code, tax rate, and opening stock so it's ready to bill and track through inventory.

Add products from **Products → New Product**. Set a name, price, tax rate,
category, and optionally a SKU and barcode (auto-generated if left blank).

## Try it: Sharma Kirana Store

<Steps>
  <Step title="Rajesh adds Tata Salt 1kg">
    Rajesh Sharma has a new stock of Tata Salt 1kg to add before it can be
    sold. He opens **Products → New Product**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enter name, price, and tax rate">
    He types "Tata Salt 1kg" as the name, sets the price to ₹28, and picks
    the applicable tax rate and category ("Groceries").
  </Step>

  <Step title="Leave SKU/barcode blank">
    Since the packet doesn't have a scannable code handy, Rajesh leaves the
    SKU and barcode fields blank — BillBasket auto-generates them.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set opening stock and save">
    He enters the opening stock count of 40 packets and saves. Tata Salt
    1kg is now ready to bill and shows up in inventory tracking right away.
