Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 6216 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 6216

It includes Gloves, Mittens & Mitts

Can reverse charge ever apply to transactions involving Gloves, Mittens & Mitts?

Reverse charge in goods is notified only for specific categories. Most regular B2B sales of Gloves, Mittens & Mitts are forward charge. Check the current notifications for any special cases before deciding.

Do spares or accessories of Gloves, Mittens & Mitts 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.

Is the composition scheme suitable if I mainly trade Gloves, Mittens & Mitts?

The composition scheme is optional for eligible small suppliers of goods. You cannot issue tax invoices or collect tax under composition. Check turnover limits and exclusions; evaluate margins and ITC loss before opting in.

Does packaging or branding change how GST applies to Gloves, Mittens & Mitts?

Yes. Many food/agri goods are treated differently when sold as pre‑packaged & labelled retail packs versus loose/open packs. If Gloves, Mittens & Mitts 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.

How should I document Gloves, Mittens & Mitts sent for job work?

Use a delivery challan for sending Gloves, Mittens & Mitts 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.
