Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 8485 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 8485

It includes Additive manufacturing machines

How should I document Additive manufacturing machines sent for job work?

Use a delivery challan for sending Additive manufacturing machines 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.

How do I bill a kit or combo that includes Additive manufacturing machines?

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.

What misclassification mistakes happen with Additive manufacturing machines?

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.

Any import/export nuance for Additive manufacturing machines?

Exports are zero‑rated (with or without payment of IGST) subject to LUT/refund conditions. Imports may attract customs duties in addition to GST. Keep HSN‑wise description consistent across invoice, shipping bill and BOE.

Any special steps when selling Additive manufacturing 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.

Is the composition scheme suitable if I mainly trade Additive manufacturing machines?

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.
