Understanding Onion Powder HSN Code
Onion powder is a convenient and concentrated form of onion, a staple in cuisines worldwide. For businesses involved in the production, import, or sale of onion powder in India, understanding its correct Harmonized System of Nomenclature (HSN) code is crucial for accurate Goods and Services Tax (GST) compliance.
The HSN system is a globally standardized method for classifying traded products, vital for streamlining customs procedures and ensuring consistent taxation. When it comes to “onion powder,” its classification directly relates to its origin as a dried vegetable.
The Onion Powder HSN Classification
Onion powder, being a dried and processed form of the onion vegetable, falls squarely under Chapter 7: “Edible vegetables and certain roots and tubers.” This chapter specifically includes dried vegetables in various forms, including powder.
Based on the provided data, the HSN code for onion powder is typically:
- HSN 07129090: This code falls under the general category of “Dried Vegetables, Whole, Cut, Sliced, Broken Or In Powder, But Not Further Prepared – Other Vegetables; Mixtures Of Vegetables : Other.”
- GST Rate: Onion powder, under this classification, consistently attracts a 5% GST rate.
While other HSN codes involving “powder” are present in the data (e.g., cocoa powder, bone powder, gold powder, chemical powders), these are clearly for different product categories. The key for onion powder is its origin as a dried vegetable.
It’s important to distinguish onion powder from other powdered plant products that might be used for medicinal or perfumery purposes, which could fall under HSN Chapter 12 (e.g., 12119023 or 12119025 for “Plants And Parts Of Plants… Used Primarily In Perfumery, In Pharmacy…”). However, onion powder’s primary use is as an edible food ingredient, making Chapter 7 the most appropriate.
