FAQs for Sub Chapter 2505

What products are classified under HSN 2505

It includes Natural stones & sands

How should I document Natural stones & sands sent for job work?

Use a delivery challan for sending Natural stones & sands 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.

Can reverse charge ever apply to transactions involving Natural stones & sands?

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

If I repair and return Natural stones & sands, 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.

What misclassification mistakes happen with Natural stones & sands?

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 should my invoice and records include for Natural stones & sands?

Include HSN, exact description, pack size/grade, quantity, and if pre‑packaged & labelled. Maintain purchase specs, test reports (where relevant), and job‑work challans for audit trail.

Does packaging or branding change how GST applies to Natural stones & sands?

Yes. Many food/agri goods are treated differently when sold as pre‑packaged & labelled retail packs versus loose/open packs. If Natural stones & sands is sold in small pouches (e.g., 500 g) with an MRP and label, record that on the invoice. Loose bulk bags often follow a different treatment.
