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. ### Is the composition scheme suitable if I mainly trade Swords & similar arms? The composition scheme is optional for eligible small suppliers of goods. You cannot issue tax invoices or collect tax under composition. Check turnover limits and exclusions; evaluate margins and ITC loss before opting in. ### What misclassification mistakes happen with Swords & similar arms? 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. ### How should I document Swords & similar arms sent for job work? Use a delivery challan for sending Swords & similar arms 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. ### How are warranty replacements of Swords & similar arms 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. ### Any import/export nuance for Swords & similar arms? 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. ## India's trade performance: HSN Sub-Chapter 9307 (FY 2024-25) Source: TradeStat EIDB, Ministry of Commerce & Industry.
