Understanding 12mm Toughened Glass HSN Code

When it comes to building materials and specialized glass products, accurate GST (Goods and Services Tax) classification is vital. For “12mm Toughened Glass,” identifying the correct HSN (Harmonized System of Nomenclature) code helps businesses in India ensure compliance and smooth transactions. The HSN system provides a universal language for goods, making trade and taxation consistent.

Toughened glass, also known as tempered glass, is a type of safety glass processed by controlled thermal or chemical treatments to increase its strength compared to normal glass. This makes it a popular choice for windows, doors, shower enclosures, and even in vehicles.

The Core HSN for Toughened Glass

The most relevant HSN classification for 12mm toughened glass directly falls under Chapter 70: Glass and glassware. This chapter is dedicated to various forms of glass and articles made from glass.

Specifically, the heading 7007 is designed for: Safety Glass, Consisting Of Toughened (Tempered) Or Laminated Glass.

Within this heading, the following sub-codes directly address toughened safety glass:

  • 700718%: This is the broad category for “Toughened (Tempered) Safety Glass.” It signifies that all toughened glass falls under this heading.
  • 70071100: This HSN code is for “Toughened (Tempered) Safety Glass: Of Size And Shape Suitable For Incorporation In Vehicles, Aircraft, Spacecraft Or Vessels.” This means if your 12mm toughened glass is specifically designed for automotive or aerospace use, this is the code to use.
  • 70071900: This is the catch-all HSN code for “Toughened (Tempered) Safety Glass: Other.” This is the most common HSN code for general-purpose 12mm toughened glass used in building, furniture, or other non-vehicular applications.

All toughened glass classified under HSN 7007 attracts an 18% GST rate. This rate became effective on November 15, 2017. The 12mm thickness specifically points to a robust form of glass, fitting perfectly within the toughened glass categories.

Distinguishing from Other Glass Types

It is important to differentiate toughened glass from other glass products also mentioned in the data, as they have different properties and uses:

  • Laminated Safety Glass (70072X00 series): While also safety glass, laminated glass consists of multiple layers of glass bonded with an interlayer, offering different breakage patterns. This includes bullet-proof glass (70072110).
  • Float Glass (7005): This refers to basic, unworked flat glass, which is the raw material before it undergoes toughening.
  • Drawn or Blown Glass (7004): These are other forms of unworked sheet glass.
  • Glass Fibres (7019): These are materials like glass wool or woven fabrics, used for insulation or reinforcement, not for structural panels.
  • Paving Blocks, Slabs, Bricks (7016): These are moulded glass articles for building purposes.
  • Optical and Signalling Glassware (7014, 7015): These are specialized glasses for specific optical or signaling functions.

Ensuring Accurate Compliance

When dealing with 12mm toughened glass, the key is to correctly identify its primary characteristic as “toughened (tempered) safety glass.” The specific dimensions (like 12mm) confirm its substantial nature, fitting well within the designated HSN 7007, particularly 70071900 for general applications. Always refer to official GST notifications and, when in doubt, consult a tax professional for precise classification.
