Understanding Your Scrub Pad’s HSN Code and GST Rate

A simple scrub pad, an everyday cleaning essential, actually has a specific classification under the Harmonized System of Nomenclature (HSN) for Goods and Services Tax (GST) purposes. However, the term “scrub pad” itself isn’t a single HSN code; its classification depends on the material it’s made from. Let’s delve into the different ways scrub pads are categorized and their associated GST rates.

Scrub Pads Made of Iron or Steel

Many common kitchen scrub pads are made of metal, often iron or steel wool. These types of scrub pads fall under HSN Chapter 73: “Articles of iron or steel.”

Specifically, the data indicates:

  • Table, Kitchen Or Other Household Articles And Parts Thereof, Of Iron Or Steel; Iron Or Steel Wool; Pot Scourers And Scouring Or Polishing Pads, Gloves And The Like, Of Iron Or Steel – Iron Or Steel Wool; Pot Scourers And Scouring Or Polishing Pads, Gloves: HSN 73231000 directly covers these metal pot scourers and polishing pads. This HSN code generally attracts an 18% GST rate, effective from July 1, 2017.

Other related entries under Chapter 73, while not exclusively “scrub pads,” indicate a similar GST rate for other household articles of iron or steel:

  • 73239190: Other household articles of cast iron, not enamelled (18% GST)
  • 73239490: Other household articles of iron (other than cast iron) or steel, enamelled (18% GST)
  • 73239410: Enamelled Ghamellas (18% GST)
  • 73239200: Of Cast Iron, Enamelled (18% GST)
  • 73239920: Other Utensils (18% GST)

Scrub Pads Made of Aluminium

Similar to steel, scrub pads made of aluminum are classified under HSN Chapter 76: “Aluminium and articles thereof.”

  • Table, Kitchen Or Other Household Articles And Parts Thereof, Of Aluminium; Pot Scourers And Scouring Or Polishing Pads, Gloves And The Like, Of Aluminium; Sanitary Ware And Parts Thereof, Of Aluminium – Pot Scourers And Scouring Or Polishing Pads, Gloves And The Like, Of Aluminium: While the provided data only specifies “Sanitary Ware And Parts Thereof : Sanitary Ware Of A” with HSN 76152010 and a 12% GST rate (effective November 15, 2017), it mentions “Pot Scourers And Scouring Or Polishing Pads, Gloves And The Like, Of Aluminium” in the description for HSN 7615. This suggests that aluminum scrub pads would likely fall under a sub-category of 7615, potentially with a similar 12% GST rate, although the explicit code for the pad itself is not detailed.

Other “Pads” and Their HSN Context

The term “pad” appears in various other contexts in the HSN data, but these are not related to cleaning scrub pads:

  • Sanitary Pads and Napkins: HSN 9619000 covers “Sanitary Towels (Pads) And Tampons, Napkins And Napkin Liners For Babies And Similar Articles, Of Any Material,” with 0% GST effective from July 1, 2017.
  • Paint Pads: HSN 96031000 for brooms, brushes, and “Paint Pads And Rollers” has a 5% GST rate.
  • Cosmetic Pads: HSN 9616 for “Powder-Puffs And Pads For The Application Of Cosmetics Or Toilet Preparations” attracts an 18% GST rate.
  • Note and Letter Pads: HSN 4820 for “Registers, Account Books, Note Books, Order Books, Receipt Books, Letter Pads, Memorandum Pads, Diaries And Similar Articles…” has an 18% GST rate.
  • Paddling Pools and Sports Equipment: HSN 9506 covers “Swimming Pools And Paddling Pools” and various sports equipment, with an 18% GST rate.
  • Padlocks: HSN 83012000 covers “Padlocks And Locks,” with an 18% GST rate.
  • Quilted Pads (Textile): HSN 58110020 covers “Quilted Textile Products” used for padding, with a 12% GST rate.
  • Wood (Padauk): HSN 44039911 refers to “Andaman Padauk” wood, which is a specific type of timber, with an 18% GST rate.

It’s clear that while “pad” is a common term, its HSN classification depends entirely on the material and intended use. For businesses dealing with scrub pads, the material (iron, steel, or aluminum) will dictate the specific HSN code and applicable GST rate.
