## Frequently asked questions

### What products are classified under HSN 8805

It includes Aircraft Launching Gear

### Do spares or accessories of Aircraft Launching Gear follow the same HSN?

Not always. Spares are often classified by their own description or by the function/part rule. Check if a specific sub‑heading exists for parts of the main item and describe the part on the invoice.

### How do I bill a kit or combo that includes Aircraft Launching Gear?

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 Aircraft Launching Gear 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.

### Can I claim ITC on inputs and services used for Aircraft Launching Gear?

If your outward supply of Aircraft Launching Gear 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 packaging or branding change how GST applies to Aircraft Launching Gear?

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

### If I repair and return Aircraft Launching Gear, 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.
