Fabric > 200 g/m²1, 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. ### How do I bill a kit or combo that includes Cotton Fabric > 200 g/m²1? 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. ### Does packaging or branding change how GST applies to Cotton Fabric > 200 g/m²1? Yes. Many food/agri goods are treated differently when sold as pre‑packaged & labelled retail packs versus loose/open packs. If Cotton Fabric > 200 g/m²1 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. ### Do spares or accessories of Cotton Fabric > 200 g/m²1 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. ### What misclassification mistakes happen with Cotton Fabric > 200 g/m²1? 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. ## India's trade performance: HSN Sub-Chapter 5211 (FY 2024-25) Source: TradeStat EIDB, Ministry of Commerce & Industry.
