## Frequently asked questions

### What products are classified under HSN 2709

It includes Crude petroleum oils

### What misclassification mistakes happen with Crude petroleum oils?

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.

### How should I document Crude petroleum oils sent for job work?

Use a delivery challan for sending Crude petroleum oils 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.

### What are the e‑way bill and e‑invoice points while moving Crude petroleum oils?

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.

### Any import/export nuance for Crude petroleum oils?

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.

### Is the composition scheme suitable if I mainly trade Crude petroleum oils?

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.
