Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 6901 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 6901

It includes Bricks, Blocks, Siliceous Earths Tiles

Do spares or accessories of Bricks, Blocks, Siliceous Earths Tiles 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.

Can reverse charge ever apply to transactions involving Bricks, Blocks, Siliceous Earths Tiles?

Reverse charge in goods is notified only for specific categories. Most regular B2B sales of Bricks, Blocks, Siliceous Earths Tiles are forward charge. Check the current notifications for any special cases before deciding.

How do I bill a kit or combo that includes Bricks, Blocks, Siliceous Earths Tiles?

Prefer separate lines per item with its HSN so each component follows its own tax treatment. If it is a naturally bundled supply, identify the principal supply and tax the whole bundle accordingly.

Any import/export nuance for Bricks, Blocks, Siliceous Earths Tiles?

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.

Does packaging or branding change how GST applies to Bricks, Blocks, Siliceous Earths Tiles?

Yes. Many food/agri goods are treated differently when sold as pre‑packaged & labelled retail packs versus loose/open packs. If Bricks, Blocks, Siliceous Earths Tiles 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.
