Understand Nails: HSN Codes and GST Rates

Nails, in their various forms, play a crucial role in construction, manufacturing, and even as natural components. Understanding the Harmonized System of Nomenclature (HSN) codes for these diverse “nails” is essential for proper GST classification and compliance. Let’s explore the different categories and their associated tax rates.

  • Claws And Waste Of Tortoise Shell: 05079070, also with Nil GST.
