Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 7406 and GST compliance.
It includes Copper powders & flakes
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.
Use a delivery challan for sending Copper powders & flakes 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.
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.
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.
Reverse charge in goods is notified only for specific categories. Most regular B2B sales of Copper powders & flakes are forward charge. Check the current notifications for any special cases before deciding.
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.
