HSN code suddenly showing “not available” for USA shipments

HSN code suddenly showing “not available” for USA shipments

Hi everyone,
I’m trying to book an international shipment from India to the USA through the India Post online booking portal, but I’m suddenly getting the error “HSN code is not available.”
The exact same HSN code was working fine yesterday, and it also appears to work when I select other destination countries. The issue seems to be happening specifically when I select the USA.
I need to dispatch the shipment today, so I wanted to check if anyone else is facing the same issue or knows whether there has been a recent change to the USA HSN/HTS requirements or an issue with the India Post portal.
Is this a temporary technical issue, or has something changed for shipments to the USA?
Any information would be appreciated. Thanks!

Canceled my ASUS ExpertBook P3 and bought a Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 for ₹75k lol. W or L? My first ever Laptop

Just bought my first ever laptop, Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 (Ryzen 7, 16GB, 512GB) for around ₹75k.
Funny thing is I had already ordered the ASUS ExpertBook P3 for 70k, then last minute canceled it and paid extra for the Lenovo 😭.
Mainly gonna use it for:
● Shopify/business stuff
● Browsing
● Light editing
● A little bit of gaming here and there
● Battery life & portability
I liked the Lenovo’s overall vibe more (display, build, premium feel), but now I’m sitting here wondering if I just spent ₹5k extra for nothing 💀.
Also the price on this laptop is wild lol. I literally saw the same IdeaPad listed for ₹99k on Amazon, and apparently it was selling for around ₹74k there too with an HDFC credit card discount not long ago. Felt like I was watching a stock chart instead of a laptop price 📈😂.
Be brutally honest..was this a W or did I fumble by canceling the ExpertBook?
Also, anyone using this exact IdeaPad Slim 5 model? How’s it been long term?
