Mens jeans, a staple in wardrobes worldwide, are a significant product in the textile industry. For businesses dealing with these garments in India, precise HSN (Harmonized System of Nomenclature) code classification and understanding the associated GST (Goods and Services Tax) rates are crucial for compliance.
Mens jeans generally fall under Chapter 62: Articles of apparel and clothing accessories, not knitted or crocheted. Specifically, the most common HSN code for men’s jeans is 62034200, which covers “Trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches and shorts, of cotton (excluding knitted or crocheted, underpants and swimwear) for men’s or boys’.” This code is directly applicable to denim jeans made of cotton. Other sub-categories under HSN 6203 might apply if the jeans are made of synthetic fibres (e.g., 62034300) or other textile materials.
A key factor influencing the GST rate on mens jeans, and indeed most ready-made garments in India, is their sale value per piece. Based on the latest regulations, the GST rates are as follows:
This slab-based GST structure aims to make more affordable clothing accessible while imposing a slightly higher tax on premium items. Therefore, when dealing with mens jeans, always consider their selling price to determine the correct GST rate to apply.
The main HSN code for mens jeans, especially cotton denim jeans, is 62034200.
Mens jeans with a sale value not exceeding Rs. 1000 per piece attract a 5% GST rate.
Mens jeans fall under Chapter 62: “Articles of apparel and clothing accessories, not knitted or crocheted.”
These GST rates for garments, based on value, were effective from July 1, 2017.
No, HSN 6203 is for finished garments. Fabrics, even for jeans, would fall under earlier chapters like 52 (for cotton woven fabrics like denim).
