## Frequently asked questions

### What products are classified under HSN 2902

It includes Cyclic hydrocarbons

### Does packaging or branding change how GST applies to Cyclic hydrocarbons?

Yes. Many food/agri goods are treated differently when sold as pre‑packaged & labelled retail packs versus loose/open packs. If Cyclic hydrocarbons 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.

### Any import/export nuance for Cyclic hydrocarbons?

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.

### Can reverse charge ever apply to transactions involving Cyclic hydrocarbons?

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

### Can I claim ITC on inputs and services used for Cyclic hydrocarbons?

If your outward supply of Cyclic hydrocarbons 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.

### Does MRP, weight or pack size change GST treatment for Cyclic hydrocarbons?

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.

### How are warranty replacements of Cyclic hydrocarbons handled?

If replacement is without consideration under a pre‑agreed warranty, issue a delivery challan and reference the original invoice/contract. If consideration is charged, raise a tax invoice. Keep serial/lot details for traceability.
