Understanding Acrylic HSN Code

Acrylic is a highly versatile material, found in everything from paints and textiles to plastics and chemical compounds. For businesses dealing with acrylic products in India, accurately understanding its Harmonized System of Nomenclature (HSN) code is crucial for correct Goods and Services Tax (GST) compliance.

The HSN system is a globally recognized method for classifying goods, essential for uniform customs procedures and taxation worldwide. The “Acrylic HSN Code” isn’t a single, monolithic number; instead, it varies significantly depending on the form, composition, and end-use of the acrylic material.

Dissecting Acrylic HSN Classifications

The provided data reveals that “Acrylic” can be classified across several distinct HSN Chapters, each reflecting a different stage of its production or its final product form:

I. Acrylic as Plastics and Articles Thereof (HSN Chapter 39)

This is a major category for acrylic in its polymeric forms, including raw materials and manufactured plastic products.

  • Acrylic Polymers in Primary Forms: This refers to acrylic in its raw, unformed state, such as granules or powders.
    • 39061090: Poly (Methyl Methacrylate) (PMMA) – Other.
    • 39069020: Polyacrylate Moulding Powder.
    • 39069040: Poly (Acrylic Acid).
    • These primary forms consistently attract an 18% GST rate.
  • Acrylic Plates, Sheets, Film, Foil, and Strip: These are common finished or semi-finished acrylic products.
    • Of Poly (Methyl Methacrylate):
      • 39205112: Sheets: Flexible, Plain.
      • 39205119: Sheets: Other.
    • Of Other Acrylic Polymers:
      • 39205912: Polyacrylate Sheets: Flexible, Plain.
      • 39205991: Other: Rigid, Plain.
      • 39205999: Other: Other.
    • These acrylic plastic sheets and films consistently attract an 18% GST rate.

II. Acrylic as Man-Made Staple Fibres (HSN Chapter 55)

Acrylic fibers are widely used in textiles. This chapter covers the fibers themselves and fabrics made from them.

  • Synthetic Staple Fibres (Carded, Combed, etc.):
    • 55063000: Acrylic or Modacrylic staple fibres processed for spinning. These attract an 18% GST rate.
  • Waste of Synthetic Fibres:
    • 55051010: Of Acrylic waste. This also attracts an 18% GST rate.
  • Yarn of Synthetic Staple Fibres:
    • 55093200: Containing 85% or more by weight of Acrylic or Modacrylic staple fibres (multiple or cabled yarn), attracting a 12% GST rate.
  • Woven Fabrics of Synthetic Staple Fibres: These are finished fabrics.
    • Containing 85% or more by weight of Acrylic or Modacrylic Staple Fibres:
      • 55122120: Unbleached or Bleached: Bleached.
      • 55122910: Other: Dyed.
      • 55122920: Other: Printed.
    • Other Woven Fabrics of Synthetic Staple Fibres (Mixed):
      • 55152190: Of Acrylic or Modacrylic Staple Fibres, mixed mainly or solely with man-made filaments: Other.
      • 55152240: Of Acrylic or Modacrylic Staple Fibres, mixed mainly or solely with wool or fine animal hair: Printed.
      • 55152930: Other: Dyed.
    • These woven fabrics made with acrylic fibers consistently attract a 5% GST rate.

III. Acrylic as Chemical Products (HSN Chapter 29)

Acrylic also exists as chemical compounds.

  • Esters of Acrylic Acid:
    • 291612: This chemical compound attracts an 18% GST rate.

IV. Acrylic in Paints and Varnishes (HSN Chapter 32)

Acrylic polymers are a common base for paints.

  • Paints and Varnishes Based on Acrylic or Vinyl Polymers (Dispersed or Dissolved in Non-Aqueous Medium):
    • 32082010 and 32082030: These represent specific types of acrylic-based paints and varnishes.
    • These consistently attract an 18% GST rate.
