## Frequently asked questions

### What products are classified under HSN 8454

It includes Metallurgical Casting Machines

### How are warranty replacements of Metallurgical Casting Machines 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.

### Any special steps when selling Metallurgical Casting Machines 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.

### If I repair and return Metallurgical Casting Machines, 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.

### Can reverse charge ever apply to transactions involving Metallurgical Casting Machines?

Reverse charge in goods is notified only for specific categories. Most regular B2B sales of Metallurgical Casting Machines are forward charge. Check the current notifications for any special cases before deciding.

### What are the e‑way bill and e‑invoice points while moving Metallurgical Casting Machines?

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.
