Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 8405 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 8405

It includes Gas generators and purifiers

Is the composition scheme suitable if I mainly trade Gas generators and purifiers?

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.

How are warranty replacements of Gas generators and purifiers 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.

Can I claim ITC on inputs and services used for Gas generators and purifiers?

If your outward supply of Gas generators and purifiers is taxable, ITC is generally available (Sections 16–17) except blocked credits (e.g., personal use, motor vehicles in most cases). For exempt supplies, proportionate reversal is required under Rule 42/43.

What are the e‑way bill and e‑invoice points while moving Gas generators and purifiers?

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.

If I repair and return Gas generators and purifiers, 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.

Does packaging or branding change how GST applies to Gas generators and purifiers?

Yes. Many food/agri goods are treated differently when sold as pre‑packaged & labelled retail packs versus loose/open packs. If Gas generators and purifiers 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.
