Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 4406 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 4406

It includes Railway sleepers

What should my invoice and records include for Railway sleepers?

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.

How do I bill a kit or combo that includes Railway sleepers?

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.

If I repair and return Railway sleepers, how should I charge GST?

Repair/service is a service supply (SAC). Parts and materials used are goods and may be billed separately with HSN. Mention both lines clearly to avoid mixing service and goods values.

Does MRP, weight or pack size change GST treatment for Railway sleepers?

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.

Any special steps when selling Railway sleepers through an e‑commerce platform?

Ensure registration requirements are met and reconcile the operator’s TCS statements with your GSTR‑2B/3B. Map SKU descriptions to HSN to reduce mismatches and returns.
