Use a delivery challan for sending Silk waste products 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 Silk waste products? 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. ### Does packaging or branding change how GST applies to Silk waste products? Yes. Many food/agri goods are treated differently when sold as pre‑packaged & labelled retail packs versus loose/open packs. If Silk waste products 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 do I bill a kit or combo that includes Silk waste products? 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. ### Any special steps when selling Silk waste products 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. ## India's trade performance: HSN Sub-Chapter 5003 (FY 2024-25) Source: TradeStat EIDB, Ministry of Commerce & Industry.
