Electric scooters are rapidly becoming a popular mode of transport, and understanding their HSN (Harmonized System of Nomenclature) code and applicable GST (Goods and Services Tax) rates is crucial for businesses and consumers alike. While the provided data lists various electrical components and machinery, the most relevant HSN code for electric scooters falls under Chapter 87: Vehicles other than railway or tramway rolling-stock, and parts and accessories thereof.
Specifically, electric scooters are typically classified under HSN Code 87116020, which describes “Motorcycles (including mopeds) and cycles fitted with an auxiliary motor, with electric motor for propulsion: Scooters.” This classification reflects their nature as a form of motorized two-wheeler.
The Indian government has actively promoted electric vehicles, including scooters, by providing a significantly lower GST rate compared to petrol-powered counterparts. This strategic move aims to encourage the adoption of eco-friendly transportation and reduce reliance on fossil fuels.
Electric scooters generally fall under HSN Code 87116020: “With electric motor for propulsion: Scooters.”
Electric scooters currently attract a GST rate of 5%.
The Indian government has reduced GST on electric vehicles to promote their adoption and encourage eco-friendly transportation.
Chapter 87 in the HSN classification covers “Vehicles other than railway or tramway rolling-stock, and parts and accessories thereof,” which includes various types of automobiles and two-wheelers.
The GST rate for all electric vehicles was reduced from 12% to 5% effective August 1, 2019.
