Hi, 

As per GST rules, in case of a composite supply the HSN code and rate of tax of the bundled service should be the same as those of the principal supply. What happens when we are supplying two separate products with two different codes (not a mixed supply since we aren't charging a consolidated price for both products) and are then charging freight?

Eg: Product A, Rs 100, tax rate 12%, HSN code 1234

Product B, Rs 100, tax rate, 18%, HSN code 5678

Now when we charge freight on this invoice what HSN code and tax rate should be selected for freight?
