Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 4401 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 4401

It includes Fuel wood, wood chips & sawdust

Do spares or accessories of Fuel wood, wood chips & sawdust 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 Fuel wood, wood chips & sawdust?

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.

What should my invoice and records include for Fuel wood, wood chips & sawdust?

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.

Any import/export nuance for Fuel wood, wood chips & sawdust?

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.

What misclassification mistakes happen with Fuel wood, wood chips & sawdust?

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.
