A hydraulic press is a powerful machine, a staple in countless industries from manufacturing and metalworking to recycling and pharmaceuticals. Its ability to generate immense force through the application of hydraulic pressure makes it indispensable for tasks like forming, bending, punching, and compacting. For businesses involved in the sale, purchase, or import/export of these robust machines, understanding their Harmonized System of Nomenclature (HSN) code and associated Goods and Services Tax (GST) is paramount for smooth operations and compliance.
Hydraulic presses primarily fall under Chapter 84 of the HSN, which encompasses “Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery and mechanical appliances; parts thereof.” This broad chapter is home to a vast array of industrial machinery.
Specifically, the HSN codes for hydraulic presses are found under 8462. This heading covers “Machine-tools (including presses) for working metal by forging, hammering or die-stamping; machine-tools (including presses) for working metal by bending, folding, straightening, flattening, shearing, punching or notching; presses for working metal or metal carbides, not specified above.”
Within HSN 8462, hydraulic presses are often identified by sub-headings like 846291 or 84626100.
It’s important to note that while the data also mentions other hydraulic-related items like hydraulic turbines (8410), hydraulic power engines (8412), or hydraulic brake fluids (3819), these are distinct from a hydraulic press machine itself and have different classifications based on their function.
The Goods and Services Tax (GST) rate for hydraulic presses in India is uniformly 18%. This rate applies across the various sub-headings where hydraulic presses are classified under HSN 8462. This 18% GST rate for machinery and mechanical appliances has been consistently applied since the implementation of GST on July 1, 2017.
For businesses dealing with hydraulic presses, accurate HSN classification ensures correct invoicing, seamless customs procedures for imports and exports, and adherence to tax regulations. This clarity helps in efficient supply chain management and avoids potential penalties.
Hydraulic presses primarily fall under HSN Chapter 84: “Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery and mechanical appliances; parts thereof.”
The main HSN codes for hydraulic presses are 846291 and 84626100.
The general GST rate for hydraulic presses is 18%.
The 18% GST rate for hydraulic presses became effective on July 1, 2017.
Accurate HSN classification is crucial for proper GST calculation, correct import/export duties, and overall compliance with tax and trade regulations.
For precise verification, it is always recommended to consult official GST notifications, the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) website, or a qualified tax professional specializing in industrial machinery.
