Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 3201 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 3201

It includes Tannins & extracts

How are warranty replacements of Tannins & extracts 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.

Any special steps when selling Tannins & extracts 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.

Does packaging or branding change how GST applies to Tannins & extracts?

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

How should I document Tannins & extracts sent for job work?

Use a delivery challan for sending Tannins & extracts 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 should my invoice and records include for Tannins & extracts?

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.

What misclassification mistakes happen with Tannins & extracts?

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.
