Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 8432 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 8432

It includes Agricultural machinery

How should I document Agricultural machinery sent for job work?

Use a delivery challan for sending Agricultural machinery 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 Agricultural machinery?

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 Agricultural machinery, 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.

Any special steps when selling Agricultural machinery through an e‑commerce platform?

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.

What misclassification mistakes happen with Agricultural machinery?

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.
