Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 7802 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 7802

It includes Lead waste & scrap

Any import/export nuance for Lead waste & scrap?

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.

What misclassification mistakes happen with Lead waste & scrap?

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.

How are warranty replacements of Lead waste & scrap 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.

Can I claim ITC on inputs and services used for Lead waste & scrap?

If your outward supply of Lead waste & scrap is taxable, ITC is generally available (Sections 16–17) except blocked credits (e.g., personal use, motor vehicles in most cases). For exempt supplies, proportionate reversal is required under Rule 42/43.

Do spares or accessories of Lead waste & scrap follow the same HSN?

Not always. Spares are often classified by their own description or by the function/part rule. Check if a specific sub‑heading exists for parts of the main item and describe the part on the invoice.
