## Frequently asked questions

### What products are classified under HSN 5402

It includes Synthetic Filament Yarn

### What misclassification mistakes happen with Synthetic Filament Yarn?

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.

### Any import/export nuance for Synthetic Filament Yarn?

Exports are zero‑rated (with or without payment of IGST) subject to LUT/refund conditions. Imports may attract customs duties in addition to GST. Keep HSN‑wise description consistent across invoice, shipping bill and BOE.

### If I repair and return Synthetic Filament Yarn, 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.

### Can I claim ITC on inputs and services used for Synthetic Filament Yarn?

If your outward supply of Synthetic Filament Yarn is taxable, ITC is generally available (Sections 16–17) except blocked credits (e.g., personal use, motor vehicles in most cases). For exempt supplies, proportionate reversal is required under Rule 42/43.

### Do spares or accessories of Synthetic Filament Yarn 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.
