12 August 2025 Yes, you can sell old ginning machinery as scrap.
GST Invoice - Sale of Old Machinery as Scrap
Goods Description:
You can mention something like "Scrap of Ginning Machinery" or simply "Scrap Machinery."
HSN Code for Scrap:
Generally, HSN 7404 is used for "Copper waste and scrap," but since it's ginning machinery scrap (which is mainly metal), the applicable HSN is likely:
HSN 7204 – Ferrous waste and scrap (if it's mostly iron/steel)
Or HSN 8501 – if it's electrical machinery scrap (less likely here).
Check the composition of the scrap material. If it is primarily iron/steel, use HSN 7204.
GST Rate:
Scrap sales usually attract GST @ 5% (non-IGST), but verify the latest GST rates for scrap goods under your state GST laws.
