FAQs for Sub Chapter 5206

What products are classified under HSN 5206

It includes Cotton yarn (less than 85% cotton)

How should I document Cotton yarn (less than 85% cotton) sent for job work?

Use a delivery challan for sending Cotton yarn (less than 85% cotton) 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.

Is the composition scheme suitable if I mainly trade Cotton yarn (less than 85% cotton)?

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.

Does MRP, weight or pack size change GST treatment for Cotton yarn (less than 85% cotton)?

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.

Does packaging or branding change how GST applies to Cotton yarn (less than 85% cotton)?

Yes. Many food/agri goods are treated differently when sold as pre‑packaged & labelled retail packs versus loose/open packs. If Cotton yarn (less than 85% cotton) 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 are warranty replacements of Cotton yarn (less than 85% cotton) 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.
