What products are classified under HSN 5506

It includes Retail sewing thread

Any import/export nuance for Retail sewing thread?

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.

Can reverse charge ever apply to transactions involving Retail sewing thread?

Reverse charge in goods is notified only for specific categories. Most regular B2B sales of Retail sewing thread are forward charge. Check the current notifications for any special cases before deciding.

What are the e‑way bill and e‑invoice points while moving Retail sewing thread?

Generate an e‑way bill when the consignment value exceeds ₹50,000, unless exempted for the transaction. E‑invoicing depends on turnover (AATO threshold as notified) for B2B supplies, not on the item itself.

Does packaging or branding change how GST applies to Retail sewing thread?

Yes. Many food/agri goods are treated differently when sold as pre‑packaged & labelled retail packs versus loose/open packs. If Retail sewing thread 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.

Does MRP, weight or pack size change GST treatment for Retail sewing thread?

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.

How are warranty replacements of Retail sewing thread 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.
