What products are classified under HSN 2846

It includes Rare-earth metal compounds

Can I claim ITC on inputs and services used for Rare-earth metal compounds?

If your outward supply of Rare-earth metal compounds 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.

Do spares or accessories of Rare-earth metal compounds 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.

What misclassification mistakes happen with Rare-earth metal compounds?

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.

Is the composition scheme suitable if I mainly trade Rare-earth metal compounds?

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.

Does packaging or branding change how GST applies to Rare-earth metal compounds?

Yes. Many food/agri goods are treated differently when sold as pre‑packaged & labelled retail packs versus loose/open packs. If Rare-earth metal compounds is sold in small pouches (e.g., 500 g) with an MRP and label, record that on the invoice. Loose bulk bags often follow a different treatment.
