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. ### How do I bill a kit or combo that includes Unwrought tin? 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. ### Does packaging or branding change how GST applies to Unwrought tin? Yes. Many food/agri goods are treated differently when sold as pre‑packaged & labelled retail packs versus loose/open packs. If Unwrought tin is sold in small pouches (e.g., 500 g) with an MRP and label, record that on the invoice. Loose bulk bags often follow a different treatment. ### Any import/export nuance for Unwrought tin? 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 Unwrought tin 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. ## India's trade performance: HSN Sub-Chapter 8001 (FY 2024-25) Source: TradeStat EIDB, Ministry of Commerce & Industry.
