What products are classified under HSN 3602

It includes Prepared explosives

Is the composition scheme suitable if I mainly trade Prepared explosives?

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.

Do spares or accessories of Prepared explosives 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.

Can I claim ITC on inputs and services used for Prepared explosives?

If your outward supply of Prepared explosives 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.

Can reverse charge ever apply to transactions involving Prepared explosives?

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

How do I bill a kit or combo that includes Prepared explosives?

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.
