Oxygen Cylinder HSN Code: Understand GST for a Critical Commodity

Oxygen cylinders are vital for various applications, from industrial processes to life-saving medical interventions. Understanding the Harmonized System of Nomenclature (HSN) codes and the corresponding Goods and Services Tax (GST) rates for oxygen cylinders is essential for businesses, healthcare providers, and individuals to ensure proper taxation and compliance. This blog will guide you through the relevant HSN classifications and GST implications.

Differentiating Between the Gas and the Container

It’s important to distinguish between the oxygen gas itself and the cylinder that contains it. Each component often falls under different HSN classifications and may have varying GST rates.

Classifying Medical Grade Oxygen Gas

For the oxygen gas itself, particularly “Medical Grade Oxygen,” the HSN code falls under Chapter 28: “Inorganic chemicals, organic or inorganic compounds of precious metals, of rare-earth metals, of radioactive elements or of isotopes.” Specifically, “Oxygen” is under HSN code 280440. “Medicinal Grade” oxygen uses the HSN code 28044010, which has a 12% GST rate, effective from November 15, 2017. Other forms of oxygen might have a different rate, as per HSN 28044090 which can be 5%, 12%, or 18% depending on the specific type.

Categorizing Oxygen Cylinders (The Container)

The physical oxygen cylinder, being a container for compressed or liquefied gas, typically falls under Chapter 73: “Articles of iron or steel” or Chapter 76: “Articles of aluminium.”

  • Iron or Steel Cylinders: For containers made of iron or steel, the HSN code 73110090 covers “Other Pressure Containers For Transport Or Storage Of Compressed Gases (Excl. Containers Specifically Constructed Or Equipped For One Or More Types Of Transport) : Other”. These often attract an 18% GST rate. High-pressure cylinders with working pressure exceeding 35.2 Kg/Sq.Cm might be found under HSN 73110030.
  • Aluminium Cylinders: Aluminium containers for compressed or liquefied gas are generally classified under HSN code 76130099, typically at an 18% GST rate.

Recognizing Related Medical Apparatus

Medical equipment directly involved in oxygen therapy, beyond just the gas and cylinder, generally falls under Chapter 90: “Optical, photographic, cinematographic, measuring, checking, precision, medical or surgical instruments and apparatus; parts and accessories thereof.”

Understanding Oxygen Therapy Appliances

“Mechano-Therapy Appliances; Massage Apparatus; Psychological Aptitude-Testing Apparatus; Ozone Therapy, Oxygen Therapy, Aerosol Therapy, Artificial Respiration Or Other Therapeutic Respiration Apparatus” are relevant categories.

  • “Ozone Therapy, Oxygen Therapy, Aerosol Therapy” apparatus uses HSN codes like 90192090 and 90192010, both attracting a 12% GST rate from July 1, 2017.
  • More broadly, “Other Breathing Appliances And Gas Masks, Excluding Protective Masks Having Neither Mechanical Parts Nor Replaceable Filters” are covered by HSN 9020, with a 12% GST rate.
  • “Instruments And Appliances Used In Medical, Surgical, Dental Or Veterinary Sciences,” including “Other surgical instruments and appliances,” can also encompass components or setups where oxygen cylinders are an integral part, often found under HSN 90189099, typically with a 12% GST rate.

Considering Engine Cylinders

It is important to note that the term “cylinder” also appears in the context of engines. For example, “Spark-Ignition Reciprocating Or Rotary Internal Combustion Piston Engines” with specific “Cylinder Capacity” are found under Chapter 84: “Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery and mechanical appliances; parts thereof.” Examples include HSN codes like 84073320 and 84073210 for motorcycle engines, which have a significantly higher GST rate of 28%. These are distinct from oxygen cylinders.

FAQs

What is the HSN code for medical grade oxygen gas?

Medical grade oxygen gas is typically classified under HSN code 28044010.

What is the GST rate for medical grade oxygen?

Medical grade oxygen (HSN 28044010) has a 12% GST rate.

What HSN code applies to an empty oxygen cylinder made of steel?

An empty oxygen cylinder made of iron or steel typically falls under HSN 73110090.

What is the GST rate for oxygen therapy equipment?

Oxygen therapy equipment (e.g., under HSN 90192090) typically has a 12% GST rate.

When did the GST rate for medical oxygen become effective?

The 12% GST rate for medical grade oxygen became effective from November 15, 2017.

How does the HSN differentiate between the oxygen gas and the cylinder it’s stored in?

The oxygen gas (the chemical element) is under Chapter 28, while the cylinder (the container) is under Chapters 73 (iron/steel) or 76 (aluminum).
