Quick Summary
Palm jaggery sold in 10kg packages is considered pre-packaged and labelled, making it liable for GST, even if it doesn't fully meet the requirements of the Legal Metrology Act. While non-compliance with the Act may lead to legal issues, GST liability remains. It's crucial to ensure adherence to both the Legal Metrology Act and relevant GST regulations.

Yes, X's packages containing 10 kg palm jaggery would still be considered pre-packaged and labeled, and therefore liable to GST, even if they don't comply with the Legal Metrology Act. Here's why: 1. _Pre-packaged_: The palm jaggery is packaged in advance, making it a pre-packaged commodity. 2. _Labeling_: Although the packages may not comply with the Legal Metrology Act, they are still labeled with certain information (e.g., weight, product name). 3. _GST liability_: Pre-packaged and labeled commodities are liable to GST, regardless of non-compliance with other laws. However, it's important to note that: 1. _Legal Metrology Act compliance_: X should ensure compliance with the Legal Metrology Act to avoid legal issues. 2. _GST rates and compliance_: X should check the applicable GST rates and ensure compliance with GST regulations.

Thank you.
