Decoding the Machinery HSN Code: A Detailed Guide

The Harmonized System Nomenclature (HSN) code is a global standard for classifying goods, and “machinery” encompasses a vast array of items. Identifying the correct HSN code for specific machinery is crucial for businesses involved in manufacturing, importing, or exporting these goods, as it determines the applicable tax rates and customs duties. The provided data offers a glimpse into the diverse HSN codes falling under the broad category of machinery.

Based on the data, Chapter 84 of the HSN code is the primary chapter for “Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery and mechanical appliances; parts thereof.” Within this chapter, numerous specific HSN codes classify different types of machinery based on their function and application.

FAQs

Which HSN chapter primarily covers machinery and mechanical appliances?

Chapter 84 of the HSN code primarily covers nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery and mechanical appliances, and parts thereof.

Is there a single GST rate for all types of machinery?

No, the GST rate for machinery varies depending on the specific type. The provided data shows rates of both 18% and 12% for different kinds of machinery.

Are parts and accessories of machinery classified under the same HSN code as the main machine?

Not necessarily. Parts and accessories suitable for use solely or principally with specific machinery often have their own distinct HSN codes under the relevant headings, as seen with parts for forklift trucks (84312010) and textile machinery (Chapter 8448).

How often do HSN codes and GST rates for machinery get updated?

HSN codes are generally stable, but GST rates can be subject to revisions by the government. It’s essential to refer to the latest official notifications for the most accurate and up-to-date information.

Where can I find the HSN code for a specific piece of industrial machinery?

To find the specific HSN code, you need to know the exact function and type of the machinery. You can refer to the official customs tariff, the GST portal, or consult with a tax or customs professional.
