Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 8309 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 8309

It includes Metal Caps & Lids

How are warranty replacements of Metal Caps & Lids 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.

How do I bill a kit or combo that includes Metal Caps & Lids?

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.

Is the composition scheme suitable if I mainly trade Metal Caps & Lids?

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.

If I repair and return Metal Caps & Lids, 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.

What misclassification mistakes happen with Metal Caps & Lids?

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.
