Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 7801 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 7801

It includes Unwrought Lead

Does MRP, weight or pack size change GST treatment for Unwrought Lead?

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.

If I repair and return Unwrought Lead, 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.

How should I document Unwrought Lead sent for job work?

Use a delivery challan for sending Unwrought Lead 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.

What are the e‑way bill and e‑invoice points while moving Unwrought Lead?

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.

How do I bill a kit or combo that includes Unwrought Lead?

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.

What should my invoice and records include for Unwrought Lead?

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.
