Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 3921 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 3921

It includes Plastic sheets and strips

How are warranty replacements of Plastic sheets and strips 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.

Do spares or accessories of Plastic sheets and strips 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.

Is the composition scheme suitable if I mainly trade Plastic sheets and strips?

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.

How should I document Plastic sheets and strips sent for job work?

Use a delivery challan for sending Plastic sheets and strips 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 Plastic sheets and strips?

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.
