Lubricating grease is an essential substance, vital for reducing friction and wear in countless machines, from industrial equipment to automotive components. For businesses involved in the manufacturing, distribution, or sale of lubricating grease, understanding the correct HSN (Harmonized System of Nomenclature) code and the applicable Goods and Services Tax (GST) rate is crucial for compliance and smooth trade.
The primary HSN classification for lubricating grease falls under Chapter 34: Soap, organic surface-active agents, washing preparations, lubricating preparations, artificial waxes, prepared waxes, polishing or scouring preparations, candles and similar articles, modelling pastes, dental waxes and dental preparations with a basis of plaster.
Within this chapter, the core HSN code for lubricating preparations, including grease, is 3403. This broad heading covers “Lubricating Preparations (Including Cutting-Oil Preparations, Bolt Or Nut Release Preparations, Anti-Rust Or Anti-Corrosion Preparations And Mould Release Preparations, Based On Lubricants) And Preparations Of A Kind Used For The Oil Or Grease Treatment Of…”
The data provides several specific HSN codes under 3403:
Essentially, all these codes under HSN 3403 cover various types of lubricating preparations, including grease, distinguished by their composition (e.g., containing petroleum oils or not) and intended use.
It’s vital to differentiate lubricating grease from other “grease” related terms found in the data:
Based on the provided data, all the specific HSN codes under 3403 for lubricating preparations (including grease) are subject to an 18% GST rate. This rate has been consistently applied since November 15, 2017, and originally from July 1, 2017.
Lubricating Grease falls under HSN Chapter 34.
The general HSN code is 3403.
The 18% GST rate became effective from November 15, 2017, with its original implementation on July 1, 2017.
Lubricating oil generally has an 18% GST rate.
The HSN system classifies goods based on their specific nature, composition, and function. Therefore, the finished lubricating grease product, the raw material (wool grease), the tools that apply it (grease guns), and parts that contain it (axle boxes) all have distinct classifications.
