Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 9304 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 9304

It includes Spring & air guns

What misclassification mistakes happen with Spring & air guns?

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 special steps when selling Spring & air guns 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 Spring & air guns?

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.

Does packaging or branding change how GST applies to Spring & air guns?

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

What are the e‑way bill and e‑invoice points while moving Spring & air guns?

Generate an e‑way bill when the consignment value exceeds ₹50,000, unless exempted for the transaction. E‑invoicing depends on turnover (AATO threshold as notified) for B2B supplies, not on the item itself.
