Understanding the HSN Code for Wire Mesh

Wire mesh, a versatile material crafted from interwoven or welded wires, finds extensive applications across industries, from fencing and filtration to construction and security. For businesses involved in the manufacturing, trade, or use of wire mesh, understanding its correct HSN (Harmonized System of Nomenclature) code is crucial for accurate Goods and Services Tax (GST) compliance. The HSN classification for wire mesh primarily depends on the metal of which it is made.

The Iron or Steel Wire Mesh HSN Codes and GST Rates

The most common types of wire mesh are made from iron or steel. These are primarily classified under Chapter 73 of the HSN, which covers “Articles of iron or steel.”

Here’s a breakdown of the relevant HSN codes for iron or steel wire mesh, all of which consistently attract an 18% GST rate:

  • Cloth (Including Endless Bands), Grill, Netting And Fencing, Of Iron Or Steel Wire; Expanded Metal Of Iron Or Steel – Woven Cloth: This broad category covers woven wire mesh products.
    • Other : Wire Gauze (Wire Cloth, Wire Mesh): HSN 73141910. This is a direct and specific HSN code for general iron or steel wire mesh.
    • Other Woven Cloth, Of Stainless Steel : Wire Gauze (Wire Cloth, Wire Mesh): HSN 73141410. This specific code is for woven wire mesh made of stainless steel, clearly distinguishing it while maintaining the same GST rate.
  • Grill, Netting And Fencing, Welded At The Intersection, Of Wire With A Maximum Crosssectional Dimension Of 3 Mm Or More And Having A Mesh Size Of 100 Cm2 Or More: This category covers welded wire mesh products, often used for fencing or reinforcement.
    • General codes like 731420 and more specific ones like 73142010 and 73142090 are used here, all attracting an 18% GST rate.

The consistent 18% GST rate across different types of iron and steel wire mesh simplifies tax compliance for businesses dealing with these materials.

Exploring Other Metal Wire Mesh HSN Codes

While iron and steel are common, wire mesh can also be made from other metals, each with its own HSN classification:

  • Aluminium and articles thereof (Chapter 76):
    • Other Articles Of Aluminium – Other : Cloth, Grill, Netting And Fencing, Of Aluminium Wire: HSN 76169100. Aluminium wire mesh also attracts an 18% GST rate.
  • Copper and articles thereof (Chapter 74):
    • Cloth (Including Endless Bands), Grill And Netting, Of Copper Wire; Expanded Metal Of Copper – Cloth : Other: HSN 74142090. Interestingly, this particular HSN code for copper wire mesh shows a 0% GST rate in the provided data, indicating a potential exemption or lower rate for certain copper mesh products. This highlights the importance of checking specific sub-codes carefully.
