It includes Photographic film rolls
If your outward supply of Photographic film rolls 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.
Reverse charge in goods is notified only for specific categories. Most regular B2B sales of Photographic film rolls are forward charge. Check the current notifications for any special cases before deciding.
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.
Use a delivery challan for sending Photographic film rolls 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.
