Badges serve a multitude of purposes, from identification and awards to fashion and branding. Understanding the correct HSN (Harmonised System of Nomenclature) code for a “badge” is crucial for businesses in India to ensure accurate GST (Goods and Services Tax) compliance. The classification largely depends on the material the badge is made from and whether it is embroidered.
The provided data primarily focuses on textile-based badges, with specific distinctions based on the manufacturing process.
The majority of “badges” in the given data fall under Chapter 58, “Special woven fabrics; tufted textile fabrics; lace; tapestries; trimmings; embroidery.” This chapter covers textile articles, making it the primary home for fabric badges.
The provided data does not explicitly list HSN codes for badges made from materials like metal, plastic, or enamel. However, based on general HSN principles and common classifications, such badges would fall under different chapters:
The data also includes HSN codes related to “Badger Hair” (HSN 0502 and its subcategories), which are products of animal origin used in brush making. These are entirely unrelated to the badges worn by people and carry a 5% GST rate. It’s important to distinguish these from actual “badges.”
The primary HSN chapter for textile badges is Chapter 58, which covers “Special woven fabrics; tufted textile fabrics; lace; tapestries; trimmings; embroidery.”
The GST rate for most textile badges, both embroidered and non-embroidered, is 12%.
For a woven cotton badge that is not embroidered, use HSN code 58071010.
The 12% GST rate for textile badges became effective on July 1, 2017.
The material composition (e.g., textile, metal, plastic) and whether it is embroidered are the most important factors for classifying a badge.
A metal badge would likely fall under Chapter 83, “Miscellaneous articles of base metal,” or potentially Chapter 71 if it contains precious metals.
