Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 6905 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 6905

It includes Ceramic roofing & chimney goods

Any import/export nuance for Ceramic roofing & chimney goods?

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.

Any special steps when selling Ceramic roofing & chimney goods 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.

If I repair and return Ceramic roofing & chimney goods, how should I charge GST?

Repair/service is a service supply (SAC). Parts and materials used are goods and may be billed separately with HSN. Mention both lines clearly to avoid mixing service and goods values.

What are the e‑way bill and e‑invoice points while moving Ceramic roofing & chimney goods?

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.

What misclassification mistakes happen with Ceramic roofing & chimney goods?

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.
