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. ### Do spares or accessories of Molybdenum articles 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. ### Can reverse charge ever apply to transactions involving Molybdenum articles? Reverse charge in goods is notified only for specific categories. Most regular B2B sales of Molybdenum articles are forward charge. Check the current notifications for any special cases before deciding. ### Does MRP, weight or pack size change GST treatment for Molybdenum articles? 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. ### Is the composition scheme suitable if I mainly trade Molybdenum articles? 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. ## India's trade performance: HSN Sub-Chapter 8102 (FY 2024-25) Source: TradeStat EIDB, Ministry of Commerce & Industry.
