## Frequently asked questions

### What products are classified under HSN 7019

It includes Glass Fibres

### How are warranty replacements of Glass Fibres handled?

If replacement is without consideration under a pre‑agreed warranty, issue a delivery challan and reference the original invoice/contract. If consideration is charged, raise a tax invoice. Keep serial/lot details for traceability.

### Is the composition scheme suitable if I mainly trade Glass Fibres?

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.

### If I repair and return Glass Fibres, 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.

### Does MRP, weight or pack size change GST treatment for Glass Fibres?

Some entries use MRP/weight‑based conditions for classification. Keep pack size, retail marking and brand status on records and invoice to support the chosen HSN.

### Does packaging or branding change how GST applies to Glass Fibres?

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

### Can reverse charge ever apply to transactions involving Glass Fibres?

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