Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 3301 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 3301

It includes Essential oils: concretes & absolutes

Any import/export nuance for Essential oils: concretes & absolutes?

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.

Does MRP, weight or pack size change GST treatment for Essential oils: concretes & absolutes?

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.

If I repair and return Essential oils: concretes & absolutes, how should I charge GST?

Repair/service is a service supply (SAC). Parts and materials used are goods and may be billed separately with HSN. Mention both lines clearly to avoid mixing service and goods values.

What are the e‑way bill and e‑invoice points while moving Essential oils: concretes & absolutes?

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.

Can I claim ITC on inputs and services used for Essential oils: concretes & absolutes?

If your outward supply of Essential oils: concretes & absolutes 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.
