Can reverse charge ever apply to transactions involving Electric heaters?

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

Can I claim ITC on inputs and services used for Electric heaters?

What misclassification mistakes happen with Electric heaters?

How are warranty replacements of Electric heaters 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.

Does packaging or branding change how GST applies to Electric heaters?

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