Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 0901 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 0901

It includes Coffee & coffee substitutes

Any import/export nuance for Coffee & coffee substitutes?

Exports are zero‑rated (with or without payment of IGST) subject to LUT/refund conditions. Imports may attract customs duties in addition to GST. Keep HSN‑wise description consistent across invoice, shipping bill and BOE.

Can reverse charge ever apply to transactions involving Coffee & coffee substitutes?

Reverse charge in goods is notified only for specific categories. Most regular B2B sales of Coffee & coffee substitutes are forward charge. Check the current notifications for any special cases before deciding.

If I repair and return Coffee & coffee substitutes, 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.

Do spares or accessories of Coffee & coffee substitutes 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 do I bill a kit or combo that includes Coffee & coffee substitutes?

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.

What misclassification mistakes happen with Coffee & coffee substitutes?

Using a broad or incorrect HSN, ignoring material/form (e.g., raw vs processed), or mixing goods and services on one line. Always match wording to the HSN Notes and keep a classification working paper.
