Understanding the HSN Code for Stainless Steel Plate

Stainless steel plates are a fundamental component in numerous industries, from heavy machinery and construction to food processing and architecture. Their corrosion resistance, strength, and aesthetic appeal make them highly sought after. For businesses engaged in the trade or fabrication of these vital materials, understanding the correct HSN (Harmonized System of Nomenclature) code is paramount for accurate Goods and Services Tax (GST) compliance. Stainless steel plates are consistently classified under the “Iron and steel” chapter of the HSN.

Stainless Steel Plate HSN Codes and GST Rates

Stainless steel plates, being a type of flat-rolled product, fall under Chapter 72 of the HSN, specifically within the category for “Iron and steel.” The precise HSN code for a stainless steel plate is determined by its dimensions (width and thickness) and the extent of its processing (e.g., hot-rolled, cold-rolled, or other treatments).

Here’s a breakdown of the relevant HSN codes for stainless steel plates, all of which carry a consistent 18% GST rate:

  • Flat-Rolled Products Of Stainless Steel, Of A Width Of 600 Mm Or More – Not Further Worked Than Hot-Rolled, Not In Coils: This is a key category for larger, hot-rolled stainless steel plates.
    • Of A Thickness Exceeding 10 Mm:
      • Universal Plates Of Stainless Steel Or Heat Resisting Steel And Chromium Type : Exceeding 14 Mm: HSN 72192112.
      • Universal Plates Of Stainless Steel Or Heat Resisting Steel And Chromium Type : Not Exceeding 14 Mm: HSN 72192111.
      • Universal Plates Of Stainless Steel Heat Resisting Steel, Nickel Chromium Austenitic Type: Not Exceeding 14 Mm: HSN 72192121.
      • Universal Plates Of Stainless Steel Heat Resisting Steel, Nickel Chromium Austenitic Type: Exceeding 14 Mm: HSN 72192122.
    • Of A Thickness Of 4.75 Mm Or More But Not Exceeding 10 Mm:
      • Universal Plates Of Stainless Steel Or Heat Resisting Steel : Chromium Type: HSN 72192211.
      • Universal Plates Of Stainless Steel Or Heat Resisting Steel : Nickel Chromium Austenitic Type: HSN 72192212.
      • Universal Plates Of Stainless Steel Or Heat Resisting Steel : Other: HSN 72192219.
      • Other : Other: HSN 72192299.
  • Flat-Rolled Products Of Stainless Steel, Of A Width Of 600 Mm Or More – Other : Sheets And Plates: This covers wider stainless steel sheets and plates that might have undergone further processing or are not specifically “universal plates.”
    • Thickness More Than 4.75 Mm: HSN 72199011.
    • Thickness 3 Mm To 4.75 Mm: HSN 72199012.
    • Thickness Less Than 3 Mm: HSN 72199013.
  • Flat-Rolled Products Of Stainless Steel, Of A Width Of 600 Mm Or More – Not Further Worked Than Cold-Rolled (Cold Reduced): While often referred to as sheets, this can also include thinner plates.
    • Of A Thickness Of 0.5 Mm Or More But Not Exceeding 1 Mm : Other: HSN 72193490.

The term “Universal Plates” within these HSN codes specifically refers to a type of flat-rolled product of stainless steel, highlighting the detailed categorization based on type and dimensions. The consistent 18% GST rate simplifies tax compliance for businesses dealing with these products.
