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. ### What misclassification mistakes happen with Textile wall coverings? 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. ### How should I document Textile wall coverings sent for job work? Use a delivery challan for sending Textile wall coverings 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. ### Can reverse charge ever apply to transactions involving Textile wall coverings? Reverse charge in goods is notified only for specific categories. Most regular B2B sales of Textile wall coverings are forward charge. Check the current notifications for any special cases before deciding. ### Do spares or accessories of Textile wall coverings 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. ## India's trade performance: HSN Sub-Chapter 5905 (FY 2024-25) Source: TradeStat EIDB, Ministry of Commerce & Industry.
