Understanding the Aluminium Sheet HSN Code: A Comprehensive Guide

Aluminium sheets are versatile materials used across countless industries, from construction and automotive to packaging and electronics. For businesses involved in the trade or manufacturing of aluminium sheets in India, understanding the correct Harmonized System of Nomenclature (HSN) code is crucial for accurate Goods and Services Tax (GST) compliance. The HSN code for an aluminium sheet depends primarily on its characteristics, such as thickness and alloy composition. This blog will break down the key HSN codes for aluminium sheets and related products, along with their associated GST rates.

The Right HSN Code for Aluminium Sheets

The HSN Chapter 76 is dedicated to “Aluminium and articles thereof,” encompassing a wide range of aluminium products. Within this chapter, aluminium sheets are primarily classified under HSN 7606.

  • Aluminium Plates, Sheets, and Strip, of a Thickness Exceeding 0.2 mm: This is the main category for most aluminium sheets. The specific sub-codes within HSN 7606 differentiate based on alloy content and shape:
    • Rectangular (Including Square):
      • Of Aluminium, Not Alloyed:
        • Electrolytic Plates or Sheets: HSN 76061110
        • Other: HSN 76061190
      • Of Aluminium Alloys: HSN 76061200
    • Other (Non-Rectangular):
      • Of Aluminium, Not Alloyed:
        • Circles: HSN 76069110
        • Electrolytic Plates or Sheets: HSN 76069120
        • Other: HSN 76069190
      • Of Aluminium Alloys:
        • Circles: HSN 76069210
        • Other: HSN 76069290
    All these specific classifications under HSN 7606 for aluminium plates, sheets, and strip with a thickness exceeding 0.2 mm carry an 18% GST rate, effective from July 1, 2017.

Related Aluminium Products and Their HSN Codes

It is important to differentiate aluminium sheets from other aluminium products that might seem similar but have different HSN classifications.

  • Aluminium Waste and Scrap: This category includes various forms of aluminium scrap.
    • Aluminium Scrap (e.g., Clean Aluminium Lithographic Sheets, Mixed Low Copper Aluminium Clippings): HSN 76020010
    • Other Waste and Scrap: HSN 76020090
    • Both types of aluminium scrap are subject to an 18% GST rate, effective from July 1, 2017.
  • Aluminium Alloys (Unwrought): These refer to raw forms of aluminium before being rolled into sheets or other products.
    • Aluminium Alloys: HSN 760120
    • This also has an 18% GST rate, effective from July 1, 2017.
  • Aluminium Containers (Casks, Drums, Cans, Boxes, etc.):
    • Specific sub-codes exist, for instance, 76121090 for certain aluminium containers of a capacity not exceeding 300 L.
    • These containers also attract an 18% GST rate, effective from July 1, 2017.
  • Household Articles of Aluminium: Some aluminium items used in households have a lower GST rate.
    • Sanitary Ware of Aluminium (e.g., sanitary ware parts): HSN 76152010
    • This has a 12% GST rate, effective from November 15, 2017.
