Dress HSN Codes And Understanding GST Implications

For businesses involved in the apparel industry, particularly those dealing with dresses, understanding the Harmonized System of Nomenclature (HSN) codes is paramount for accurate Goods and Services Tax (GST) compliance. This blog post delves into the various HSN codes applicable to different types of dresses based on the provided data, along with their corresponding GST rates.

Explore HSN Codes For Knitted Or Crocheted Dresses

The data highlights several HSN codes for dresses that are knitted or crocheted, primarily attracting a GST rate of 12%:

  • 61044400: Applies to women’s or girls’ dresses made of artificial fibres, knitted or crocheted.
  • Dresses can also be part of knitted or crocheted ensembles, such as those of cotton under HSN 61042200, also with a 12% GST rate.
  • Additionally, the entry “6108” is listed for women’s or girls’ slips and petticoats (with a sale value not exceeding ₹1000 per piece) with a GST rate of 5%. While not strictly dresses, these are related garments and show a different tax rate based on value.

Identify HSN Codes For Non-Knitted Or Crocheted Dresses

Dresses that are not knitted or crocheted also have specific HSN codes and a GST rate of 12% based on the provided information:

  • 62044220: Covers women’s or girls’ dresses made of cotton.

Dresses can also form part of non-knitted ensembles, such as those of wool or fine animal hair under HSN 62042100, which also carries a 12% GST rate.

Note Other Textile Articles And Their Potential Relevance

While not directly dresses, HSN code 63079090 for “Other Made Up Articles, Including Dress Patterns Other: Other” also carries a 12% GST rate. This suggests that dress patterns are also subject to this tax rate.

Understand Consistent GST Rate For Most Dresses

The data indicates that the majority of dress categories, whether knitted/crocheted or woven, attract a GST rate of 12%. The exception noted is for certain women’s or girls’ slips and petticoats with a sale value below ₹1000, which have a lower rate of 5%.

Observe Effective Date For Current GST Rates

The provided data specifies that the GST rates of 12% and 5% for the listed dress-related HSN codes have been effective from 01/07/2017. This aligns with the initial implementation of GST in India. No subsequent rate revisions are mentioned for these specific categories.

Simplify Dress HSN Code Identification For Your Business

For businesses dealing with dresses, the primary GST rate to consider based on this data is 12%. This applies to dresses made from various materials, both knitted/crocheted and woven. A lower rate of 5% is noted for specific undergarments (slips and petticoats) below a certain sale value. Accurate classification requires identifying the material and construction of the dress.
