Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 1512 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 1512

It includes Sunflower seed oil & fractions

Is the composition scheme suitable if I mainly trade Sunflower seed oil & fractions?

The composition scheme is optional for eligible small suppliers of goods. You cannot issue tax invoices or collect tax under composition. Check turnover limits and exclusions; evaluate margins and ITC loss before opting in.

Any special steps when selling Sunflower seed oil & fractions 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 do I bill a kit or combo that includes Sunflower seed oil & fractions?

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.

How should I document Sunflower seed oil & fractions sent for job work?

Use a delivery challan for sending Sunflower seed oil & fractions 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.

How are warranty replacements of Sunflower seed oil & fractions 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.
