    <title>Pre-packaged frozen shrimp (250g-2.5kg, masters up to 25kg) treated as pre-packaged under Legal Metrology Act 2009, taxable at 5% GST</title>
    <link>https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=93830</link>
    <description>AAR held that supplies of processed frozen shrimps (HSN 0306) in individual pre-packaged units (250 g-2.5 kg) placed in master cartons of up to 25 kg fall within the &quot;pre-packaged and labelled&quot; category under the Legal Metrology Act, 2009, thereby attracting GST. The Authority concluded that printed inner packaging bearing predetermined quantities constitutes pre-packaged goods irrespective of outer carton printing; similarly, plain inner pouches/boxes placed in plain master cartons of up to 25 kg are taxable when covered by the Legal Metrology provisions. Consequently such supplies are taxable at 5% under the GST rate notifications, whether supplied domestically or exported.</description>
