Understanding the correct HSN (Harmonized System of Nomenclature) code for safety helmets is essential for proper GST classification in India. This blog post will guide you through the relevant codes and associated GST rates.
The HSN system provides a standardized classification for goods traded internationally. For safety helmets, we primarily refer to Chapter 65, which covers “Headgear and parts thereof.”
Specifically, the HSN code 65061010 is designated for “Other Headgear, Whether Or Not Lined Or Trimmed Safety Headgear: Speed Glass Welding Helmets Or Other Helmets Meant For Industrial Use.” This code accurately encompasses safety helmets designed for industrial use, including welding helmets. The GST rate for this category is 18%, and it has been effective since July 1, 2017, with no CESS.
It’s important to differentiate safety helmets from other “safety” related items listed in different chapters, such as safety glass, safety pins, or safety fuses, as these fall under entirely different classifications and have distinct uses.
The GST rate for safety helmets, specifically those for industrial use under HSN 65061010, is a clear 18%. This rate has remained consistent since the implementation of GST. It’s crucial for businesses and individuals dealing with safety helmets to apply this correct HSN code to ensure compliance with tax regulations.
Always verify the latest GST notifications and seek professional advice if you have any doubts regarding specific product classifications.
