Understanding the Tile Adhesive HSN Code
Tile adhesive is an indispensable component in modern construction, ensuring the firm and lasting installation of tiles on various surfaces. For manufacturers, distributors, and contractors dealing with tile adhesive in India, understanding its correct HSN (Harmonized System of Nomenclature) code is crucial for seamless GST (Goods and Services Tax) compliance. The HSN system provides a globally recognized framework for classifying goods, which helps standardize taxation and trade processes.
The Core Classification: Prepared Glues and Adhesives
When it comes to tile adhesive, its primary function is to bind, or “adhere.” Therefore, the most fitting HSN classification falls under Chapter 35: Albuminoidal substances; modified starches; glues; enzymes. This chapter is specifically designed for products like glues and adhesives.
Within Chapter 35, the HSN heading 3506 is directly relevant to tile adhesive. It broadly covers:
3506: Prepared Glues And Other Prepared Adhesives, Not Elsewhere Specified Or Included; Products Suitable For Use As Glues Or Adhesives, Put Up For Retail Sale As Glues Or Adhesives, Not Exceeding A Net Weight Of 1Kg
- 35061000: This specific HSN code refers to “Products Suitable For Use As Glues Or Adhesives, Put Up For Retail Sale As Glues Or Adhesives, Not Exceeding A Net Weight Of 1Kg.” While tile adhesive is often sold in larger quantities for commercial use, the broader heading 3506 applies to all “Prepared Glues And Other Prepared Adhesives, Not Elsewhere Specified Or Included.” Since tile adhesive is a “prepared adhesive” and not specified elsewhere, it comfortably fits into this category.
The GST rate for products under HSN 3506, including tile adhesive, is 18%. This rate has been effective since July 1, 2017.
Distinguishing from Other Adhesive-Related Products
The provided data also lists other products containing the term “adhesive” or related concepts, but it is important to distinguish them from tile adhesive:
- Narrow Woven Fabrics with Adhesive (Chapter 58): HSN codes like 58063930 or 58063190 refer to textile materials assembled using an adhesive, such as “Bolducs.” These are textile products, not the adhesive compound itself.
- Adhesive Plasters (Chapter 30: Pharmaceutical products): HSN codes like 30051010 or 30059090 are for medical dressings and plasters impregnated with pharmaceutical substances, which is a specialized application of adhesive for medical purposes.
- Rubberised Textile Fabrics – Adhesive Tape (Chapter 59): HSN 59061000 specifically covers adhesive tapes made from rubberized textile fabrics. This is a finished tape product, not a building adhesive.
- Self-Adhesive Plates, Sheets, Film, Foil, Tape, Strip Of Plastics (Chapter 39): HSN codes like 39199090 refer to adhesive films or tapes made of plastic. Again, these are finished products, not the tile adhesive compound.
- Gummed or Adhesive Paper (Chapter 48): HSN 48231200 refers to paper products with an adhesive backing, like self-adhesive labels or rolls.
- Composite Paper And Paperboard (Chapter 48): HSN 4807 refers to paperboard made by sticking layers together with an adhesive, which is a manufacturing process, not the adhesive product itself.
None of these other categories correctly represent the chemical composition and primary use of a tile adhesive used in construction.
