The term “cylinder” encompasses a wide array of mechanical and industrial components. Consequently, identifying the correct Harmonized System of Nomenclature (HSN) code for a specific type of cylinder is crucial for accurate Goods and Services Tax (GST) compliance. Based on the provided data, cylinders fall under various HSN codes depending on their application. Let’s break down these classifications and the corresponding GST rates.
Cylinders used in printing machinery are classified under Chapter 84, which covers “Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery and mechanical appliances; parts thereof.” Specifically:
The GST rate applicable to these printing cylinders is 18%, effective from July 1, 2017, with some sub-codes under 8443 having a rate effective from November 15, 2017, as well.
Cylinders that are parts of internal combustion piston engines, particularly for vehicles, also fall under Chapter 84:
The GST rate for these engine-related cylinders is 28%, effective from July 1, 2017. Notably, complete motorcycles with specific engine cylinder capacities under Chapter 87 (e.g., 87111020) also mention cylinder capacity and have a GST rate of 28% (with potential CESS). Similarly, motor vehicles under Chapter 87 (e.g., 870324, 870331) are categorized by cylinder capacity and attract a 28% GST rate with varying CESS based on capacity and effective date.
Pneumatic power engines and motors, including linear acting cylinders, are classified under 84123100 within Chapter 84. The GST rate for these cylinders is 18%, effective from July 1, 2017.
Cylinders used in knitting machines fall under Chapter 84 as well:
The GST rate for these knitting machine cylinders is 18%, effective from July 1, 2017.
The GST rate is 18%.
One relevant HSN code is 84425050.
The GST rate is 28%.
The classification depends on the cylinder’s specific application and the machinery or equipment it is a part of.
Businesses should consult the official GST tariff and potentially seek expert advice to determine the most accurate HSN code based on the cylinder’s exact specifications and use.
For printing and pneumatic cylinders, the rate has been consistently 18% since their respective effective dates. Engine cylinders have also remained at 28%.
The GST rate is 18%.
