Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 2514 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 2514

It includes Slate Blocks & Slabs

Any special steps when selling Slate Blocks & Slabs 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.

Any import/export nuance for Slate Blocks & Slabs?

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 I claim ITC on inputs and services used for Slate Blocks & Slabs?

If your outward supply of Slate Blocks & Slabs 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.

If I repair and return Slate Blocks & Slabs, 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.

Is the composition scheme suitable if I mainly trade Slate Blocks & Slabs?

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.
