Identifying the HSN Code for Metal Cutting Machines
Metal cutting machines generally fall under Chapter 84 of the HSN, which covers “Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery and mechanical appliances; parts thereof.” This chapter is dedicated to heavy machinery and equipment used across various industrial sectors.
More specifically, within Chapter 84, metal cutting machines are primarily categorized under HSN heading 8461: “Machine-tools for planing, shaping, slotting, broaching, gear cutting, gear grinding or gear finishing, sawing, cutting-off and other machine tools working by removing metal, or cermets, not elsewhere specified or included.”
Several sub-headings within 8461 are relevant for different types of metal cutting machines, particularly those focused on sawing or cutting-off operations:
- 846150: This sub-heading specifically targets “Sawing or cutting-off machines.” You will find various specific codes under this heading, such as:
- 84615011
- 84615012
- 84615013
- 84615014
- 84615015
- 84615019
- 84615021
- 84615029
These detailed codes distinguish between different types of sawing or cutting-off machines based on their specific features or applications. Other related HSN codes within 8461, like 84613020 for horizontal broaching machines or 84614022 for gear cutting/grinding/finishing machines, also fall under the umbrella of metal-working machine tools.
It’s important to note that Chapter 82 also mentions “Knives and cutting blades, for machines or for mechanical appliances,” which are parts of these machines. For instance, 82081000 specifically covers “Knives and cutting blades, for metal working.” While these are components, the complete metal cutting machine itself will be classified under Chapter 84.
Understanding the GST Rate for Metal Cutting Machines
In India, metal cutting machines and their essential components generally attract a uniform GST rate of 18%. This rate applies to the machinery falling under HSN 8461, including sawing and cutting-off machines, as well as the specialized cutting blades under HSN 8208 designed for metal working.
This 18% GST rate for these machines and their related cutting blades became effective on July 1, 2017, aligning with the nationwide implementation of GST. This consistent rate across various types of metal cutting machinery simplifies tax compliance for manufacturers, importers, and users of these industrial assets.
