Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 7904 and GST compliance.
What products are classified under HSN 7904
It includes Zinc bars, rods, profiles, wire
How should I document Zinc bars, rods, profiles, wire sent for job work?
Use a delivery challan for sending Zinc bars, rods, profiles, wire 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.
Is the composition scheme suitable if I mainly trade Zinc bars, rods, profiles, wire?
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.
What are the e‑way bill and e‑invoice points while moving Zinc bars, rods, profiles, wire?
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.
Any import/export nuance for Zinc bars, rods, profiles, wire?
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.
Do spares or accessories of Zinc bars, rods, profiles, wire 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.
