Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 4807 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 4807

It includes Composite paper & paperboard

Does MRP, weight or pack size change GST treatment for Composite paper & paperboard?

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.

How do I bill a kit or combo that includes Composite paper & paperboard?

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.

Can reverse charge ever apply to transactions involving Composite paper & paperboard?

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

Does packaging or branding change how GST applies to Composite paper & paperboard?

Yes. Many food/agri goods are treated differently when sold as pre‑packaged & labelled retail packs versus loose/open packs. If Composite paper & paperboard is sold in small pouches (e.g., 500 g) with an MRP and label, record that on the invoice. Loose bulk bags often follow a different treatment.

How should I document Composite paper & paperboard sent for job work?

Use a delivery challan for sending Composite paper & paperboard 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.
