GST invoice format for a concrete products manufacturer

A concrete products unit making solid blocks, paver blocks, kerb stones, precast walls or RCC pipes should bill them under HSN 6810, articles of cement or concrete, which is taxed at 18% from 22 September 2025. The invoice should show product size, strength grade or class, quantity in numbers or square metres, curing or test certificate reference, and delivery site, because most concrete products are sold to contractors who check them against site specifications.

Extra fields a concrete products manufacturer invoice needs

Product size and thickness
Paver blocks and solid blocks come in many sizes. Showing size and thickness on the invoice lets the contractor confirm the right product was laid.
Strength grade or class
Mention compressive strength, such as M30 or M40, or pipe class such as NP2 or NP3. Contractors and engineers verify these grades before approving payment.
Test certificate reference
Quote the cube test or batch test reference. Government and large private projects require test reports linked to each supply.
Quantity unit
State whether billing is per piece, per square metre, or per running metre for pipes and kerbs. Mixed units are a common source of disputes.
Delivery site and unloading
Record the site address and whether unloading or stacking is included. Breakage during unloading is frequently disputed.
Colour and pattern
Coloured pavers cost more. Noting colour and pattern ensures the right price and helps with replacements.

GST rules that matter for a concrete products manufacturer

Heading 6810 at 18%

Notification 9/2025-Central Tax (Rate) lists articles of cement, of concrete or of artificial stone, whether or not reinforced, under heading 6810 in the 18% schedule. This covers paver blocks, solid and hollow blocks, kerb stones, precast compound wall panels, RCC pipes and similar products. Cement itself under 2523 is also in the 18% schedule, so the main input and output share a rate and there is usually no inverted duty problem for concrete product makers.

Fly ash products are listed separately

The 18% entry for articles of stone or other mineral substances under heading 6815 expressly excludes fly ash bricks, fly ash aggregates and fly ash blocks, which are dealt with by separate entries. A plant that makes both concrete blocks and fly ash bricks must check the separate fly ash entries and keep those products on their own invoice lines with their own HSN instead of billing everything under 6810.

Supply versus laying

Many concrete product units also lay pavers or install pipes. Supply of products is goods; laying them at a site is a service that may be part of a works contract relating to immovable property. Bill laying or installation separately and with the correct service code, or treat the job as a works contract if it is one indivisible contract.

Breakage and credit notes

Breakage in transit or rejection on site is common. Agree a breakage policy in advance and issue credit notes against the original invoice for accepted breakage instead of reducing the next bill. Clear records help both sides keep returns and input tax credit aligned.

E-way bills for block and paver trucks

A truck of pavers or blocks is heavy but often modest in value, so check each consignment against the ₹50,000 e-way bill limit rather than assuming one is or is not needed. RCC pipes and large paver orders usually cross it. When the same lorry makes several trips to one site in a day, each trip with an invoice value above the limit needs its own e-way bill with the correct vehicle number. Contractors' site gates increasingly check e-way bills, and a mismatch in vehicle number or quantity can hold the truck at the gate.

Common billing mistakes

  • Billing pavers by square metre on one invoice and by numbers on another, so the contractor cannot reconcile quantities.
  • Treating fly ash bricks as 6810 concrete products without checking their separate entries.
  • Combining paver supply and laying labour into one rate when the client needs them separated.
  • Omitting test certificate references for projects that require test-linked billing.
  • Reusing one e-way bill for several trips to the same site on the same day.

Concrete products manufacturer GST invoice: FAQ

What is the GST rate on paver blocks?

Concrete paver blocks fall under heading 6810, articles of cement or concrete, which is in the 18% schedule of Notification 9/2025-Central Tax (Rate) from 22 September 2025.

Is GST on RCC pipes the same as on blocks?

Yes. Reinforced concrete pipes are articles of concrete under heading 6810 and are taxed at 18%, the same as blocks and pavers.

Can I bill transport separately?

If you deliver the products as part of the sale, freight is part of the value of the supply and is taxed at the product rate. You can show it as a separate line for clarity, but not as a separately untaxed charge.

Do government projects need TDS on my invoices?

Government departments and certain notified bodies deduct GST TDS on payments to suppliers when the contract value exceeds the notified limit. The deducted amount appears in your electronic cash ledger after the deductor files its return, so keep invoice and payment details aligned.

What unit code should I use for pavers?

Use SQM when the price is per square metre and NOS when per piece. Stick to one convention per product in your item master so invoices, e-way bills and GSTR-1 show consistent units.
