Understand the Aluminium Channel HSN Code
If you’re in the business of manufacturing, supplying, or using aluminium channels, understanding the correct HSN code is essential for proper GST compliance in India. Aluminium channels are versatile products used in various applications, from construction and solar panel mounting to furniture and industrial fabrication. Their classification depends on their form and intended use.
Classify Aluminium Channels as Profiles
Aluminium channels are a type of “profile.” The HSN chapter that covers these products is Chapter 76, “Aluminium and articles thereof.” This chapter is dedicated to unwrought aluminium and its various forms, including bars, rods, profiles, wires, plates, sheets, and foils.
- HSN 7604: This is the primary heading for “Aluminium bars, rods and profiles.” This is where you will find the most relevant HSN codes for aluminium channels.
- Specific HSN Codes for Channels:
- HSN 76041031: This code is for “Profiles: hollow” of aluminium, not alloyed.
- HSN 76041039: This is for “Other profiles” of aluminium, not alloyed.
- HSN 76042100: This code is for “Hollow profiles” of aluminium alloys.
- HSN 76042990: This is for “Other” bars, rods, and profiles of aluminium alloys.
- GST Rate: All of these HSN codes under the 7604 heading consistently have a GST rate of 18%. This applies to both plain and alloyed profiles, whether they are hollow or solid.
Consider Alternative Classifications for Specific Uses
In some cases, an aluminium channel may be classified under a different heading if it is a component of a specific structure or article.
- HSN 7610: This heading is for “Aluminium structures (excluding prefabricated buildings… and doors, windows…).” If your channels are specifically prepared for use in a structure, such as a solar panel mounting frame, they might be classified under this heading.
- HSN 7616: This is a broad heading for “Other articles of aluminium.” HSN 76169990 is a residual code for other articles not specified elsewhere. While some trade data may use this for channels, HSN 7604 is a more specific and accurate classification.
- GST Rate: Both HSN 7610 and 7616 generally have a GST rate of 18%.
The GST Rate for Raw and Other Aluminium Products
It is important to remember that all unwrought aluminium, including ingots and billets (HSN 7601), and aluminium wire (HSN 7605), also attract an 18% GST rate. Only specific finished goods like aluminium household articles and sanitary ware (HSN 7615) have a lower GST rate of 12%.
To ensure proper GST compliance for your aluminium channels, the most accurate HSN code will typically be within the 7604 series. This is the designated chapter for aluminium bars, rods, and profiles, and it consistently carries an 18% GST rate.
