Steel poles are vital components in numerous applications, from electrical transmission and street lighting to signage and construction. For businesses dealing with these essential structures in India, correctly identifying their Harmonized System of Nomenclature (HSN) code is crucial for accurate Goods and Services Tax (GST) compliance.
The HSN classification for steel poles primarily falls under Chapter 73, which covers “Articles of iron or steel.” Within this broad chapter, steel poles are generally classified under HSN heading 7308. This heading specifically refers to “Structures (excluding prefabricated buildings of heading 9406) and parts of structures (for example, bridges and bridge-sections, lock-gates, towers, lattice masts, roofs, roofing frameworks, doors and windows and their frames and thresholds for doors, shutters, balustrades, pillars and columns), of iron or steel.”
While the general heading is 7308, specific types of steel poles have more detailed sub-headings:
The prevailing GST rate for steel poles across these relevant HSN codes is 18%. This consistent rate has been in effect since July 1, 2017.
It is crucial for businesses to carefully assess the specific type and intended use of the steel pole to determine the most accurate HSN code. Consulting a tax professional or referring to the latest GST notifications from the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) is always recommended for specific cases.
Steel poles mainly fall under HSN Chapter 73, which covers “Articles of iron or steel.”
The general HSN heading for structural steel poles is 7308.
Tubular steel poles for electric transmission and distribution lines are specifically classified under HSN 73089070.
The HSN code 73089090 is often used for other types of steel poles not specifically categorized elsewhere under HSN 7308.
The GST rate applicable to most steel poles is 18%.
Using the correct HSN code ensures accurate GST calculation, proper invoicing, and compliance with Indian tax regulations.
