## Frequently asked questions

### What products are classified under HSN 0407

It includes Birds’ eggs

### What should my invoice and records include for Birds’ eggs?

Include HSN, exact description, pack size/grade, quantity, and if pre‑packaged & labelled. Maintain purchase specs, test reports (where relevant), and job‑work challans for audit trail.

### What are the e‑way bill and e‑invoice points while moving Birds’ eggs?

Generate an e‑way bill when the consignment value exceeds ₹50,000, unless exempted for the transaction. E‑invoicing depends on turnover (AATO threshold as notified) for B2B supplies, not on the item itself.

### Does MRP, weight or pack size change GST treatment for Birds’ eggs?

Some entries use MRP/weight‑based conditions for classification. Keep pack size, retail marking and brand status on records and invoice to support the chosen HSN.

### If I repair and return Birds’ eggs, how should I charge GST?

Repair/service is a service supply (SAC). Parts and materials used are goods and may be billed separately with HSN. Mention both lines clearly to avoid mixing service and goods values.

### Can reverse charge ever apply to transactions involving Birds’ eggs?

Reverse charge in goods is notified only for specific categories. Most regular B2B sales of Birds’ eggs are forward charge. Check the current notifications for any special cases before deciding.
