## Frequently asked questions

### What products are classified under HSN 2617

It includes Other ores & extracts

### How do I bill a kit or combo that includes Other 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.

### If I repair and return Other ores & extracts, 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.

### Can I claim ITC on inputs and services used for Other ores & extracts?

If your outward supply of Other ores & extracts 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.

### Can reverse charge ever apply to transactions involving Other ores & extracts?

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

### What are the e‑way bill and e‑invoice points while moving Other 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.

### Does MRP, weight or pack size change GST treatment for Other 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.
