Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 9401 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 9401

It includes Vehicle Seats & Parts

Can I claim ITC on inputs and services used for Vehicle Seats & Parts?

If your outward supply of Vehicle Seats & Parts 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.

What should my invoice and records include for Vehicle Seats & Parts?

Include HSN, exact description, pack size/grade, quantity, and if pre‑packaged & labelled. Maintain purchase specs, test reports (where relevant), and job‑work challans for audit trail.

Any import/export nuance for Vehicle Seats & Parts?

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.

What misclassification mistakes happen with Vehicle Seats & Parts?

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.

If I repair and return Vehicle Seats & Parts, 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.

What are the e‑way bill and e‑invoice points while moving Vehicle Seats & Parts?

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.
