Use the exact HSN and the correct form (fresh/chilled vs. frozen/dried; PPL vs. not). Apply the rate per line to avoid wrong tax collection.
Generate an e‑way bill if the consignment value exceeds ₹50,000 (subject to exemptions). e‑Invoicing is turnover‑based (presently AATO > ₹5 crore) for B2B supplies.
Use separate invoice lines per HSN and apply the correct rate per line (e.g., Varies for Other Salt; Nil for exempt items if applicable).
