Decoding the Electronic HSN Code: A Detailed Guide

The Harmonized System Nomenclature (HSN) code is a global system for classifying goods, essential for taxation and international trade. The term “electronic” covers a vast array of products, and their HSN codes are spread across several chapters depending on their specific function and nature. The provided data offers a glimpse into the HSN classification of various electronic components, devices, and related machinery.

Based on the data, Chapter 85: Electrical machinery and equipment and parts thereof; sound recorders and reproducers, television image and sound recorders and reproducers, and parts and accessories of such articles is a primary chapter for many electronic goods. This includes:  

  • 8542: Electronic Integrated Circuits. Various sub-codes exist under this, such as 85423300 (Amplifiers), 85426000 (Hybrid Integrated Circuits), and 85422990 (Monolithic Integrated Circuits: Other: Other), all with an 18% GST rate (effective 01/07/2017). 8542 itself and 85429000 (Parts) also fall under the 18% GST rate.
  • 85492100: Waste and scrap containing primary cells, batteries, electric accumulators, mercury switches, cathode ray tubes glass, or electronic components containing hazardous substances, with an 18% GST rate.
  • 91081200: Watch Movements, Complete And Assembled – Electrically Operated: With Opto-Electronic Display Only, under Chapter 91: Clocks and watches and parts thereof, with an 18% GST rate (effective 15/11/2017).

However, electronic components and manufacturing equipment are also classified in other chapters:

  • Chapter 38: Miscellaneous chemical products includes 3818 and its sub-codes (e.g., 38180010, 38180018, 38180090) for Chemical Elements Doped For Use In Electronics, in forms like discs or wafers, with a GST rate of 12% or 18% (effective 01/07/2017).
  • Chapter 84: Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery… covers machinery used in the electronic industry:
    • 84522120: Sewing Machines with Electronic Controls or Electric Motors (Other Than Book-Sewing Machines), with a 12% GST rate (effective 01/07/2017).
    • 8486: Machines And Apparatus Of A Kind Used Solely Or Principally For The Manufacture Of Semiconductor Boules Or Wafers, Semiconductor Devices, Electronic Integrated Circuits Or Flat Panel Displays, with an 18% GST rate (effective 01/07/2017), including sub-code 84862000.
    • 84752900: Other Machines For Manufacturing Or Hot Working Glass Or Glassware, potentially used in electronic component manufacturing, with an 18% GST rate (effective 01/07/2017).
  • Chapter 95: Toys, games… includes 9503 for Electronic Toys, with an 18% GST rate (effective 01/07/2017).

Finally, 998874 refers to “Computer, Electronic And Optical Product Manufacturing Services” under Services, with varying GST rates depending on specific conditions.

Therefore, the HSN code for an “electronic” item depends heavily on its specific nature, function, and the materials it is made of. From semiconductor components to manufacturing machinery and finished electronic devices, the classification spans multiple chapters.
