Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 7010 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 7010

It includes Glass containers & closures

What are the e‑way bill and e‑invoice points while moving Glass containers & closures?

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.

If I repair and return Glass containers & closures, 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 should my invoice and records include for Glass containers & closures?

Include HSN, exact description, pack size/grade, quantity, and if pre‑packaged & labelled. Maintain purchase specs, test reports (where relevant), and job‑work challans for audit trail.

Is the composition scheme suitable if I mainly trade Glass containers & closures?

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.

Can reverse charge ever apply to transactions involving Glass containers & closures?

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

How do I bill a kit or combo that includes Glass containers & closures?

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.
