Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 2912 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 2912

It includes Aldehydes & derivatives

Is the composition scheme suitable if I mainly trade Aldehydes & derivatives?

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.

Any special steps when selling Aldehydes & derivatives 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 should my invoice and records include for Aldehydes & derivatives?

Include HSN, exact description, pack size/grade, quantity, and if pre‑packaged & labelled. Maintain purchase specs, test reports (where relevant), and job‑work challans for audit trail.

Can reverse charge ever apply to transactions involving Aldehydes & derivatives?

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

How should I document Aldehydes & derivatives sent for job work?

Use a delivery challan for sending Aldehydes & derivatives 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.
