Case Laws GST AAR
The AAR determined that the Geometry Compass Box constitutes a mixed supply under Section 2(74), not a composite supply. The box contains multiple discrete items (compass, divider, scale, protractor, set squares, pencil, eraser, sharpener) which can be independently purchased. Since individual components are commercially available separately, the combination does not qualify as naturally bundled goods. Consequently, the HSN classification falls under Chapter Sub Heading 90178010, with an applicable GST rate of 18%, based on the highest tax-rated item within the package.
