Understand Generator HSN Code and GST Implications
Generators, crucial for providing backup power and operating in off-grid locations, are classified under various categories in the Harmonized System of Nomenclature (HSN). Understanding the specific HSN code for a generator is vital for determining the applicable Goods and Services Tax (GST) rate in India. This blog post aims to clarify the HSN codes relevant to different types of generators based on the provided data and their corresponding GST rates.
Identify HSN Codes for Various Types of Generators
The provided data lists several HSN codes that pertain to generators, categorized primarily by their type and power output:
- Generators (for internal combustion engines): 85112010, 851120
- AC Generators (Alternators) exceeding 750 KVA (output between 37,500 KVA and 75,000 KVA): 85016450
- AC Generators (Alternators) exceeding 750 KVA (output between 5,000 KVA and 15,000 KVA): 85016430
- AC Generators (Alternators) exceeding 312,500 KVA: 85016480
- DC Generators (output not exceeding 750 W): Part of 850131
- Electric Portable Generators (output not exceeding 3.5 KVA) with spark-ignition internal combustion piston engines: 85022010
- Signal Generators: 85432010
- Impulse Generators: 85432020
- Producer Gas or Water Gas Generators: 84051020, 840510
- X-Ray Generators (High Tension): 90221410, 90221420, 90221490, 90229020
- Parts of Generators (AC or DC): 85030010
This diverse list highlights that the HSN code for a generator depends significantly on its power output, the type of fuel or energy it uses (e.g., internal combustion, gas, X-rays), and its specific application (e.g., portable, industrial, signal generation).
Know the Applicable GST Rate on Generators
The provided data shows that most types of generators listed attract a GST rate of 18%. However, there is a notable exception:
- Generators (for internal combustion engines) under HSN 85112010 and 851120: 28% GST
This indicates a higher GST rate for certain generators used in internal combustion engines. No CESS is mentioned for any of these categories, and the effective date for these rates is primarily 01/07/2017, with some variations for X-Ray generators (15/11/2017 revision).
