Manufacturing and Industrial
Job Work and Subcontract Manufacturing
Processing material owned by others, where wastage norms and GST job-work rules govern the commercial outcome.
Also covers: Job Work · Subcontracting · Processing Unit
About this industry
A job worker never owns the material being processed. Material arrives under a challan, is processed, and must return with the agreed yield. Margin comes from processing charges, and losses come from wastage above the agreed norm. GST job-work provisions govern the documentation on both sides.
Common operational problems
- Material received belongs to the principal and must be reconciled exactly
- Wastage above the agreed norm is absorbed as a direct loss
- GST job-work challans and return timelines must be tracked
- Multiple principals' material must not be mixed
- Processing charges depend on quantity and process, not on material value
Example workflows
Material inward under job-work challan against a principal
Processing recorded with input and output quantities
Wastage compared against agreed norms
Processed material returned with challan within statutory timelines
Processing charges invoiced with GST treatment for job work
