For better use of discussion forum always provide complete details, relevant law and your own view to seek views of others in a discussion like manner. Where is sale taking place, whether local or interstate, what are relevant entries in the ST rate of particular state are important information required. For example if there is entry like fabric, ready made garments, women wear... then duppatta can fall in catagory of women wear. If you sell only cut piece or cloth length for duppatta/ odhani without any stitching etc. then it can be consdered as fabric. So all relevant entries in rate table and all facts are necesary to be considered.

If it is merely a cut piece of larger fabric than no doubt the same would be fabric and excluded from sales tax. But, in general there is some value addition to such cut piece to make it duppatta or odhni and therefore, it loose the state of fabric and become made up article of textile.
