Understanding Acrylic Sheet HSN Codes: A Guide for Businesses

Acrylic sheets, renowned for their versatility, clarity, and durability, find extensive use across various industries, from signage and display to construction and automotive. For any business involved in manufacturing, trading, or importing acrylic sheets in India, understanding their Harmonized System of Nomenclature (HSN) code is crucial for accurate GST compliance and smooth operations.

Acrylic Sheets: Primarily Fall Under Chapter 39 – Plastics and Articles Thereof

The HSN classification system places acrylic sheets firmly within Chapter 39: Plastics and articles thereof. This chapter covers a broad spectrum of plastic materials in various forms, including plates, sheets, film, foil, and strip.

HSN 3920: Unreinforced, Non-Cellular Plastic Sheets

Within Chapter 39, the most relevant heading for acrylic sheets is 3920: Other plates, sheets, film, foil and strip, of plastics, non-cellular and not reinforced, laminated, supported or similarly combined with other materials. This heading specifically covers acrylic sheets in their common form, meaning they are solid (non-cellular) and not strengthened with other materials like fabric or paper.

The classification further refines based on the type of acrylic polymer:

  • 392051: Of Poly (Methyl Methacrylate) (PMMA): This sub-heading is dedicated to sheets made from Poly(methyl methacrylate), which is the most common type of acrylic. You’ll find detailed codes here based on rigidity and plainness:
    • 39205111: Rigid, Plain Sheets of Poly (Methyl Methacrylate)
    • 39205112: Flexible, Plain Sheets of Poly (Methyl Methacrylate)
    • 39205119: Other Sheets of Poly (Methyl Methacrylate) (covering variations not explicitly rigid or flexible, plain)
    • 39205191: Other Rigid, Plain Sheets of Poly (Methyl Methacrylate) (This appears to be a broader “other” category for rigid plain sheets.)
    • 39205192: Other Flexible, Plain Sheets of Poly (Methyl Methacrylate)
    • 39205199: Other Sheets of Poly (Methyl Methacrylate) (a general “other” for PMMA sheets)
  • 392059: Other Acrylic Polymers: This sub-heading covers sheets made from acrylic polymers other than Poly(methyl methacrylate). This might include various polyacrylates:
    • 39205911: Rigid, Plain Polyacrylate Sheets
    • 39205912: Flexible, Plain Polyacrylate Sheets
    • 39205919: Other Polyacrylate Sheets
    • 39205991: Other Rigid, Plain Sheets of other Acrylic Polymers
    • 39205992: Other Flexible, Plain Sheets of other Acrylic Polymers
    • 39205999: Other Sheets of other Acrylic Polymers

Consistent GST Rate: 18% for Acrylic Sheets

Regardless of the specific HSN sub-code under 3920 or 3906, acrylic sheets consistently attract an 18% GST rate in India. This rate has been in effect since July 1, 2017, for most of these classifications.

FAQs

What is the general HSN chapter for acrylic sheets?

Acrylic sheets generally fall under Chapter 39, “Plastics and articles thereof.”

What is the most common HSN code for acrylic sheets?

Common HSN codes for acrylic sheets include various sub-codes under 392051 (for Poly(Methyl Methacrylate)) and 392059 (for other acrylic polymers), with specific codes for rigid, flexible, and plain varieties.

What is the GST rate applicable to acrylic sheets?

The GST rate for acrylic sheets is consistently 18%.

How do I differentiate between HSN 392051 and 392059?

HSN 392051 is specifically for sheets made of Poly(Methyl Methacrylate) (PMMA), while 392059 covers sheets made of other types of acrylic polymers (polyacrylates).

Does “plain” in the HSN description refer to color?

“Plain” generally refers to the surface being unworked or merely surface-worked, not necessarily the color. It distinguishes it from sheets with patterns, textures, or further processing.
