Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 2708 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 2708

It includes Pitch and pitch coke

What misclassification mistakes happen with Pitch and pitch coke?

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.

Any special steps when selling Pitch and pitch coke 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.

What are the e‑way bill and e‑invoice points while moving Pitch and pitch coke?

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 should I document Pitch and pitch coke sent for job work?

Use a delivery challan for sending Pitch and pitch coke 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.

How do I bill a kit or combo that includes Pitch and pitch coke?

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.
