Understand the Ultratech Cement HSN Code
Ultratech Cement is a household name in India’s construction industry, synonymous with strength and reliability. For anyone involved in the trade, distribution, or use of cement, understanding its Harmonized System of Nomenclature (HSN) code and the Goods and Services Tax (GST) rate is fundamental for legal compliance and financial planning. While Ultratech is a brand, the HSN code applies to the type of cement itself. Let’s delve into the specific classifications for cement.
The HSN Code for Ultratech Cement (and other Portland Cements)
The core classification for cement, including popular varieties like Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) which Ultratech produces, falls under Chapter 25 of the HSN system. This chapter specifically deals with “Mineral Products – Salt; sulphur; earths and stone; plastering materials, lime and cement.”
Within this chapter, the primary heading for various types of cement is 2523. This broad heading covers:
- 2523: Portland cement, aluminous cement, slag cement, supersulphate cement and similar hydraulic cements, whether or not coloured or in the form of clinkers.
More specifically, for what is commonly known as “Ultratech Cement” (which is typically Ordinary Portland Cement), the HSN code you are most likely looking for is:
- 25232910: Ordinary Portland Cement, Dry.
This code clearly identifies the widely used dry Ordinary Portland Cement, of which Ultratech is a prominent manufacturer. The data also explicitly links “Ultratech Cement” to this HSN code, confirming its relevance.
Other related HSN codes for cement under the same chapter and heading include:
- 25231000: Cement Clinkers (the raw material for cement).
- 25232920: Ordinary Portland Cement, Coloured.
- 25232930: Portland Pozzolana Cement (PPC).
- 25232940: Portland Slag Cement (PSC).
- 25232100: White Portland Cement, whether or not artificially coloured.
It is important to distinguish cement (the binding material) from articles made of cement. The data also includes HSN codes under Chapter 68 – Articles of stone, plaster, cement, asbestos, mica or similar materials. These codes, such as 68101990 (for cement tiles, flagstones, bricks) or 68109910 (for concrete boulders), apply to finished products containing cement, not the cement itself. Similarly, HSN codes related to “Cement Copper” (Chapter 74) or “Asbestos-Cement” products (Chapter 68 or 59) refer to different materials or composite products, not the bagged cement used in construction.
Understanding the GST Rate for Ultratech Cement
Cement, including Ultratech Cement (as Ordinary Portland Cement), falls under one of the highest GST slabs.
- The GST rate for cement classified under HSN code 2523 (including 25232910 for Ordinary Portland Cement) is 28%.
This rate has been consistently applied since the implementation of GST on July 1, 2017. It’s a significant tax component in construction costs.
Knowing the correct HSN code and GST rate for Ultratech cement is crucial for:
- Accurate Invoicing: Ensuring businesses charge and pay the correct GST.
- Tax Compliance: Fulfilling all legal obligations under the GST regime.
- Input Tax Credit (ITC): Correct classification allows businesses to claim eligible ITCs on cement purchases, where applicable.
- Import/Export: Streamlining customs clearance processes for cement.
For any specific queries or unique cement products, it is always best to consult a GST expert or refer to the latest official GST notifications from the government of India.
