Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 2306 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 2306

It includes Oil-cake from vegetable fats or oils

Can I claim ITC on inputs and services used for Oil-cake from vegetable fats or oils?

If your outward supply of Oil-cake from vegetable fats or oils 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.

What misclassification mistakes happen with Oil-cake from vegetable fats or oils?

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.

What are the e‑way bill and e‑invoice points while moving Oil-cake from vegetable fats or oils?

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.

Is the composition scheme suitable if I mainly trade Oil-cake from vegetable fats or oils?

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.

How do I bill a kit or combo that includes Oil-cake from vegetable fats or oils?

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.

Does MRP, weight or pack size change GST treatment for Oil-cake from vegetable fats or oils?

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.
