What products are classified under HSN 5408

It includes Woven artificial fabrics

Any special steps when selling Woven artificial fabrics 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.
