Dear Sir/Madam,

I am seeking your expert opinion regarding the correct GST applicability, rate, and HSN classification for one of our products.
We are dealing with a product named “Millet-Based Probiotic Drink”, which is a packaged, non-alcoholic, fermented beverage made from millets, containing live probiotics. It is marketed as a spicy digestive/probiotic health drink, with zero sugar and zero preservatives.
There is confusion regarding whether this product should be classified as:
• a non-alcoholic beverage under Chapter 22, or
• a functional / probiotic / nutraceutical product under any other appropriate heading,
and accordingly, whether the applicable GST rate should be 5%, 12%, 18% or any other rate.

We request your guidance on:
1. The most appropriate HSN code for this product,
2. The correct GST rate applicable, and
3. Any relevant notifications, circulars, or case laws supporting the classification.
Your professional clarification will help us ensure correct compliance and avoid future disputes.
Looking forward to your valuable advice.

How to file this return

ITC of IMPG for the month of NOV-2024 is shown in DEC-25 GSTR-2B then it can be claim in GSTR-3B of DEC-25 or not?

Dear Sir/Ma'am,
This query is pertaining to AY 2024-25.
I had filed the return u/s139(1) under old regime where I had claimed 100% deduction for donation made to "The National Trust for Welfare of Persons with Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Mental Retardation and Multiple Disabilities constituted under sub-section (1) of section 3 of the National Trust for Welfare of Persons with Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Mental Retardation and Multiple Disabilities Act, 1999". However, few days ago I have received an SMS alert from the income tax department saying that "Our records show that you claimed charitable/relief fund donation deductions in your AY 2024-25 ITR. However, based on the PAN you provided, the organisation you donated to may not be eligible for the deduction you claimed.

You need to update your ITR to either add the correct PAN or remove the deduction. To do this,visit https://www.incometax.gov.in. Once logged in, navigate to “e-File” → “File Income Tax Return → “Select Assessment Year” → “Select Filing Type” → choose “139(8A) - Updated Return” → “ Select ITR Type” → “Continue” and update section 80G/80GGC".
As per the provisions of section 80G, donation to the above entity is eligible for 100% deduction.
Now I am getting a tax payable along with interest u/234A, 234B and 234C to pay the tax on this donation amount.
Can anyone please guide me how to resolve this query.
Also is there any way in which I can verify the PAN of the Donee Entity.

I am a wholesaler of Raw Tobacco. What is the implication of the new notification no. 19/2025 dated 31/12/2025.
how to raise an invoice and how to show the excise?? Weather I have to apply for excise registration?

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to amend Form 26QB on the TRACES website and running into a strange issue.

• I submit the amendment request.
• I get a confirmation saying the request has been successfully submitted.
• When I check the Request Status after about 10–15 minutes, it shows “Declined.”
• The PAN and Acknowledgement Number entered are correct.

This is happening for multiple Form 26QB filings that were filed incorrectly and now need amendments.

I’m trying to understand:
• What are the common reasons for an amendment request getting declined after successful submission?
• Is this usually due to a validation issue, timing issue, or a known TRACES system bug?
• Are there any specific checks or prerequisites I should verify before re-submitting?
• Is there a recommended workaround, like waiting longer, re-filing at a certain time, or using a different correction type?

Any guidance from someone who has dealt with this recently would be really helpful.

Thanks in advance.
