Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 7804 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 7804

It includes Lead sheets and powders

How do I bill a kit or combo that includes Lead sheets and powders?

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.

If I repair and return Lead sheets and powders, 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.

Can reverse charge ever apply to transactions involving Lead sheets and powders?

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

How should I document Lead sheets and powders sent for job work?

Use a delivery challan for sending Lead sheets and powders 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.

Any import/export nuance for Lead sheets and powders?

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 sheets and powders?

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.
