Hinduism does not use the term "sin" but it certainly acknowledges that there are such things as right and wrong actions, which in the Hindu religion are measured by what is known as "karma" which could be defined as the cumulative sum of all the good and evil in a given lifetime. Karma, according to Hinduism, will determine what kind of situation or species you will be reborn into, in your next lifetime. This also give us a classic religious pun: my karma ran over your dogma.

Yes. That's the basis of Karma. What goes around comes around.
