For exempt supplies, proportionate reversal is required under Rule 42/43. ### How do I bill a kit or combo that includes Citrus peel and melons? Prefer separate lines per item with its HSN so each component follows its own tax treatment. If it is a naturally bundled supply, identify the principal supply and tax the whole bundle accordingly. ### Do spares or accessories of Citrus peel and melons follow the same HSN? Not always. Spares are often classified by their own description or by the function/part rule. Check if a specific sub‑heading exists for parts of the main item and describe the part on the invoice. ### How should I document Citrus peel and melons sent for job work? Use a delivery challan for sending Citrus peel and melons to the job worker. Declare movement in your records and reconcile when the goods return. If the job worker raises a service invoice, classify it under SAC; your goods remain under the original HSN. ### Any special steps when selling Citrus peel and melons through an e‑commerce platform?
