## Frequently asked questions

### What products are classified under HSN 3307

It includes Shaving preparations

### Can I claim ITC on inputs and services used for Shaving preparations?

If your outward supply of Shaving preparations 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 Shaving preparations 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 Shaving preparations?

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.

### Does MRP, weight or pack size change GST treatment for Shaving preparations?

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 do I bill a kit or combo that includes Shaving preparations?

Prefer separate lines per item with its HSN so each component follows its own tax treatment. If it is a naturally bundled supply, identify the principal supply and tax the whole bundle accordingly.
