Understanding the HSN Code for Aluminium Sliding Windows

Aluminium sliding windows are a popular choice for modern buildings, offering durability, sleek aesthetics, and excellent functionality. For businesses involved in the manufacturing, supply, or installation of these windows in India, navigating the correct HSN (Harmonized System of Nomenclature) code is essential for seamless GST (Goods and Services Tax) compliance.

The HSN classification for aluminium sliding windows is quite precise, placing them within the broader category of aluminium structures.

The Home of Aluminium Structures: Chapter 76

Aluminium sliding windows, being a key structural component made of aluminium, are primarily classified under:

Chapter 76: Aluminium and articles thereof.

Within this chapter, the relevant HSN heading directly addresses such building components:

  • HSN Heading 7610: Aluminium structures (excluding prefabricated buildings of heading 9406) and parts of structures (for example, bridges and bridge-sections, towers, lattice masts, roofs, roofing frameworks, doors and windows and their frames and thresholds for doors, balustrades, pillars and columns).

This description clearly includes “doors and windows and their frames and thresholds for doors” made of aluminium. Therefore, aluminium sliding windows fall squarely under this heading.

More specifically, the HSN sub-code often cited for these products is:

  • 76101000: Doors, windows and their frames and thresholds for doors, of aluminium (excluding door furniture).

This 8-digit code pinpoints the exact classification for complete aluminium windows and their frames.

GST Rates for Aluminium Sliding Windows

The GST rate for Aluminium Sliding Windows falling under HSN 7610, including the specific code 76101000, has been subject to some revision. Initially, some interpretations pointed to a 28% rate for “doors, windows and their frames”. However, subsequent clarifications and industry practices have largely aligned it with the general rate for “Aluminium structures” and “articles of aluminium”, which is 18%.

As per the latest understanding and prevalent practice since at least November 15, 2017, the GST rate for Aluminium Sliding Windows is 18%. This applies to the supply of the windows themselves.

What about Installation Services?

It’s important to differentiate between the supply of the aluminium sliding window (the “goods”) and its installation (the “service”).

  • Supply of Goods: If you are simply selling the aluminium sliding window as a product, the 18% GST on HSN 76101000 applies.
  • Works Contract (Supply & Installation): If your business provides a composite supply that includes both the supply of the aluminium sliding window and its installation as part of a works contract (e.g., for a building project), the GST rate for works contract services is typically 18%. There have been discussions and differing opinions on this in the past, but the prevailing view for composite supplies involving movable goods becoming part of immovable property is generally 18% under works contract services (SAC 9954).

For businesses dealing with aluminium sliding windows, ensuring accurate HSN classification and understanding the distinction between goods and works contract services is critical for correct GST invoicing and compliance. Always consult the most recent GST notifications and expert advice for any specific scenarios.
