Assembly tantamount to manufacturing. If you are a SSI unit then you may avail the exemption.

Hi wvwryeve.,

I am Ankush from India, I am facing a similar issue , I am importing led and lens and making a fixture here by purchasing raw material and getting the fixture done on job work . Now I am registered as A trader under GST , what should I upgrade to

AI Summary

Assembly as manufacturing: assembling LED components treated as manufacturing under GST may require registration reclassification. Assembling components into LED fixtures is viewed as manufacturing for GST classification rather than trading; units qualifying as small scale industry may avail SSI exemptions, and traders performing assembly should consider upgrading or reclassifying their registration to reflect manufacturing, including where work is done through job work.
