Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 2610 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 2610

It includes Chromium ores & extracts

How should I document Chromium ores & extracts sent for job work?

Use a delivery challan for sending Chromium ores & extracts 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.

Do spares or accessories of Chromium ores & extracts follow the same HSN?

Not always. Spares are often classified by their own description or by the function/part rule. Check if a specific sub‑heading exists for parts of the main item and describe the part on the invoice.

Any special steps when selling Chromium ores & extracts 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.

Does MRP, weight or pack size change GST treatment for Chromium ores & extracts?

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.

What are the e‑way bill and e‑invoice points while moving Chromium ores & extracts?

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.

How do I bill a kit or combo that includes Chromium ores & extracts?

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.
