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. ### Can I claim ITC on inputs and services used for Non-powered aircraft? If your outward supply of Non-powered aircraft is taxable, ITC is generally available (Sections 16–17) except blocked credits (e.g., personal use, motor vehicles in most cases). For exempt supplies, proportionate reversal is required under Rule 42/43. ### Does MRP, weight or pack size change GST treatment for Non-powered aircraft? Some entries use MRP/weight‑based conditions for classification. Keep pack size, retail marking and brand status on records and invoice to support the chosen HSN. ### Any special steps when selling Non-powered aircraft 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 Non-powered aircraft? 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. ## India's trade performance: HSN Sub-Chapter 8801 (FY 2024-25) Source: TradeStat EIDB, Ministry of Commerce & Industry.
