Clear answers to common queries about HSN Code 29159091 and GST compliance.
It includes Other| Hexoic Acid (Caproic Acid)
Under HSN 29159091, Other/ Hexoic Acid (Caproic Acid) attracts Varies when sold in taxable form. Describe the exact form on the invoice.
e‑Way bill is needed above ₹50,000 consignment value (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/ Hexoic Acid (Caproic Acid); Nil for exempt items if applicable).
For food/agri items, GST can be 5% when not fresh/chilled and sold as pre‑packaged & labelled; otherwise often Nil. For non‑food items, rates depend on the specific sub‑heading.
If your outward supply is taxable, eligible ITC is available subject to general restrictions. For exempt/Nil supplies, reverse credit per Rule 42.
