Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common queries about HSN Sub Chapter 9504 and GST compliance.

What products are classified under HSN 9504

It includes Video game consoles & machines

What are the e‑way bill and e‑invoice points while moving Video game consoles & machines?

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.

Is the composition scheme suitable if I mainly trade Video game consoles & machines?

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.

Can I claim ITC on inputs and services used for Video game consoles & machines?

If your outward supply of Video game consoles & machines 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.

How do I bill a kit or combo that includes Video game consoles & machines?

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 MRP, weight or pack size change GST treatment for Video game consoles & machines?

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.
