Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 0705 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 0705

It includes Fresh lettuce and chicory

If I repair and return Fresh lettuce and chicory, 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 I claim ITC on inputs and services used for Fresh lettuce and chicory?

If your outward supply of Fresh lettuce and chicory is taxable, ITC is generally available (Sections 16–17) except blocked credits (e.g., personal use, motor vehicles in most cases). For exempt supplies, proportionate reversal is required under Rule 42/43.

Any special steps when selling Fresh lettuce and chicory through an e‑commerce platform?

Ensure registration requirements are met and reconcile the operator’s TCS statements with your GSTR‑2B/3B. Map SKU descriptions to HSN to reduce mismatches and returns.

How are warranty replacements of Fresh lettuce and chicory handled?

If replacement is without consideration under a pre‑agreed warranty, issue a delivery challan and reference the original invoice/contract. If consideration is charged, raise a tax invoice. Keep serial/lot details for traceability.

What are the e‑way bill and e‑invoice points while moving Fresh lettuce and chicory?

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.
