For many agri/food items, GST applies at 5% when they are not fresh/chilled and are sold as pre‑packaged & labelled. Loose or fresh/chilled forms may be Nil.
Use separate invoice lines per HSN and apply the correct rate per line (e.g., Varies for Andalusite; Nil for exempt items if applicable).
Under HSN 25085010, Andalusite attracts Varies when sold in taxable form. Describe the form and packaging clearly on the invoice.
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 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.
If your outward supply is taxable (5%/12% etc.), eligible ITC is available subject to general restrictions. For exempt/Nil supplies, reverse credit per Rule 42.
