Find the Right Vacuum Cleaner HSN Code

When it comes to classifying electrical appliances for GST, understanding the HSN code is vital. For vacuum cleaners, the primary classification is straightforward, but it is important to differentiate them from other domestic appliances and industrial machines.

Classify a Vacuum Cleaner as an Electrical Appliance

Vacuum cleaners are categorized under Chapter 85, which covers “Electrical machinery and equipment and parts thereof.” This is the main heading for all types of vacuum cleaners, whether for domestic or industrial use.

  • Primary HSN Code: The main HSN code for vacuum cleaners is 8508. This code specifically covers “Vacuum Cleaners.”
  • GST Rate: All products under HSN 8508, including dry and wet vacuum cleaners, have an 18% GST rate. This rate was effective from July 27, 2018.

Between Vacuum Cleaners and Other Appliances

It is important to note the distinction between vacuum cleaners and other electrical domestic appliances.

  • Other Appliances: The data also lists HSN code 8509 for “Electro-Mechanical Domestic Appliances, With Self-Contained Electric Motor, Other Than Vacuum Cleaners Of Heading 8508.” This shows that vacuum cleaners have their own distinct category and are not lumped in with other appliances like food grinders or mixers.
  • Parts: Parts for vacuum cleaners are also classified under HSN 8508, specifically HSN 85087000, and are taxed at 18%. This is different from the parts of other electro-mechanical domestic appliances, which fall under HSN 85099000.

Classify Industrial Vacuum Cleaners

While the main HSN code for vacuum cleaners is 8508, some industrial vacuum cleaners may be classified under a different chapter, depending on their function.

  • Industrial Machines: The data provided shows HSN 84798991 for “Industrial Vacuum Cleaners” under Chapter 84, which is for “Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery and mechanical appliances.” This category also has an 18% GST rate.

Understand Other Related Codes

The provided data includes other items with “vacuum” in their description, which are important to differentiate.

  • Vacuum Pumps: Air or vacuum pumps are classified under Chapter 84 with HSN code 8414. These are different from vacuum cleaners, as their primary function is to create a vacuum, not to clean.
  • Vacuum Flasks: Vacuum flasks and other vacuum vessels are classified under Chapter 96 with HSN code 9617.
  • Vacuum Tubes and Circuit Breakers: The data also lists HSN codes for “Vacuum or Vapour or Gas Filled Valves and Tubes” (HSN 8540) and “Vacuum Circuit Breakers” (HSN 8535), which are electrical components and not cleaning appliances.

Find the Right Code for Compliance

To ensure accurate GST compliance, it is crucial to use the correct HSN code for your vacuum cleaner. The primary code is 8508. For industrial machines, verify if they fall under HSN 8479. Always check the latest GST notifications to ensure you are using the most up-to-date information.
