Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the Goods and Services Tax (GST) implications for jaggery sales following amendments effective from August 18, 2022. Jaggery is now generally taxable at 5% GST, with exemptions for loose sales or packaging exceeding 25kg. Sales in pre-packed containers up to 25kg are taxable, regardless of branding. The discussion also touches upon the taxability of freight charges when transporting tax-free jaggery.

As per recent amendment in GST , w.e.f.18/08/2022 jaggery is comes under purview of GST @ 5%. the concept of branded and unbranded is removed by the department. if you are selling the jaggery in prepacked container i.e. 1 kg , 5 kg upto 25 kg. then it is taxable .. if you make pack of container above 25 kg then it is taxfree.if you are retailer and you have jaggery in loose ..if any customer ask the 2 kg. jaggery and you make pack in front of him then also it is taxfree.

The question is that we bought jaggery from the jaggery manufacturer which is in shift of 10 to 15 kg and we sent it to another wholesale trader by putting jute sack on it. Is it now taxable or not

yes , it is taxable since you are selling it in pre packed condition and the container is below 25kg.each.
