## Frequently asked questions

### What products are classified under HSN 8502

It includes Electric Generating, Rotary Converters

### Any import/export nuance for Electric Generating, Rotary Converters?

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 Electric Generating, Rotary Converters 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.

### How do I bill a kit or combo that includes Electric Generating, Rotary Converters?

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.

### How are warranty replacements of Electric Generating, Rotary Converters 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 should I document Electric Generating, Rotary Converters sent for job work?

Use a delivery challan for sending Electric Generating, Rotary Converters 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.
