What products are classified under HSN 2206

It includes Fermented Beverages

Does MRP, weight or pack size change GST treatment for Fermented Beverages?

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.

Is the composition scheme suitable if I mainly trade Fermented Beverages?

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.

What misclassification mistakes happen with Fermented Beverages?

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.

Any special steps when selling Fermented Beverages 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.

Can reverse charge ever apply to transactions involving Fermented Beverages?
