Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Code 03027400 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 3027400 ?

It includes Fresh eels (Anguilla spp.)

Do I need an e‑way bill when moving Fresh eels (Anguilla spp.)?

e‑Way bill may be required if the consignment value exceeds ₹50,000, subject to notified exemptions. Check your state’s list for agri/animal goods.

How should I show Fresh eels (Anguilla spp.) on the invoice?

Use the correct HSN and mention the form (fresh/chilled vs frozen/dried) and whether it’s pre‑packaged & labelled.

Any typical mistake to avoid with Fresh eels (Anguilla spp.)?

Don’t charge GST on exempt fresh/chilled items. Only non‑fresh/chilled, pre‑packaged & labelled packs draw 5%.

Can I claim ITC on expenses linked to Fresh eels (Anguilla spp.)?

No. ITC attributable to exempt/Nil supplies is not available. If you also make taxable supplies, apportion and reverse credit under Rule 42.
