Understand the Right HSN Code for Ayurvedic Medicine
Ayurvedic medicine holds a significant place in India’s healthcare system, with a rich history and growing market. For businesses involved in manufacturing or selling these products, understanding the correct HSN code is vital for GST compliance. Let’s look at the HSN codes and GST rates for Ayurvedic medicines.
Classify Your Ayurvedic Medicines
The Harmonized System of Nomenclature (HSN) code for Ayurvedic medicines falls under Chapter 30, which is for “Pharmaceutical products.” Within this chapter, there are two primary headings that apply:
- HSN 3003: This is for “Medicaments… consisting of two or more constituents which have been mixed together for therapeutic or prophylactic uses, not put up in measured doses or in forms or packings for retail sale.” This applies to bulk mixtures or preparations.
- HSN 3004: This is for “Medicaments… consisting of mixed or unmixed products for therapeutic or prophylactic uses, put up in measured doses… or in forms or packings for retail sale.” This applies to finished products, like tablets, capsules, or packaged powders ready for retail.
Your provided data focuses on medicaments not put up in measured doses or for retail sale, giving a specific HSN code of 30039011 for Ayurvedic medicines. This code is part of a series for different systems of medicine, including Unani, Siddha, Homoeopathic, and Bio-chemic.
The Applicable GST Rate
The GST rate for Ayurvedic medicines under HSN codes 3003 and 3004 is 12%. This rate applies to both bulk preparations and finished products sold for retail. This 12% rate has been in effect since July 1, 2017.
It’s important to note that while most Ayurvedic medicines are taxed at 12%, there are some essential or traditional formulations that may fall under a 5% GST rate, especially if they are considered “pure” Ayurvedic medicines. However, based on the data you provided, the standard rate for these medicaments is 12%.
Understand Special Classifications
Your data also includes HSN code 9804, which is for “Drugs And Medicines” imported for personal use. This code is not for commercial trade but for small consignments. These personal use medicines can have a GST rate of 5% or 12% depending on the specific type of drug. This is a special classification and does not apply to regular business transactions.
By knowing the correct HSN code, you can ensure accurate GST calculations on your invoices, which is crucial for a compliant and successful business in the Ayurvedic sector.
