GST Rate for Miscellaneous Chemical Products – HSN Chapter 38
HSN and GST Rate for Miscellaneous Chemical Products – HSN Chapter 38
In this article, we look at the HSN code and GST rate for miscellaneous chemical products which fall under Chapter 38 of HSN Code. HSN Chapter 38 does not cover:
- Artificial graphite (heading 3801);
- Insecticides, rodenticides, fungicides, herbicides, anti-sprouting products and plant-growth regulators, disinfectants and similar products put up as described in heading 3808;
- Products put up as charges for fire-extinguishers or put up in the fire- extinguishing grenades (heading 3813);
- Mixtures of chemicals with foodstuffs or other substances with nutritive value, of a kind used in the preparation of human foodstuffs (generally, heading 2106).
- Ash and residues (including sludges, other than sewage sludges), containing metals, arsenic or their mixtures and meeting the requirements of Note 3(a) or 3(b) to Chapter 26 (heading 2620);
- Medicaments (heading 3003 or 3004).
- Spend catalysts of a kind used for the extraction of base metals or for the manufacture of chemical compounds of base metals (heading 2620), spent catalysts of a kind used principally for the recovery of precious metal (heading 7112) or catalysts consisting of metals or metal alloys in the form of, for example, finely divided powder or woven gauze (Section XIV or XV).
With the exception of the products of Chapter 28 or 29, for the classification of certified reference materials, heading 3822 shall take precedence over any other heading in the Schedule;
Heading 3824 includes the following goods which are not to be classified in any other heading of this Schedule:
- Cultured crystals (other than optical elements) weighing not less than 2.5 g each, of magnesium oxide or of the halides of the alkali or alkaline- earth metals;
- Fusel oil; Dippel’s oil;
- Ink removers put up in packings for retail sale;
- Stencil correctors, other correcting fluids and correction tapes (other than those of heading 9612), put up in packings for retail sale; and
- Ceramic firing testers, fusible (for example, Seger cones).
Throughout the Schedule, “municipal waste’ means a waste of a kind collected from households, hotels, restaurants, hospitals, shops, offices etc., road and payment sweepings, as well as construction and demolition waste. Municipal waste generally contains a large variety of materials such as plastics, rubber, wood, paper, textiles, glass, metals, food materials, broken furniture and other damaged or discarded articles. The term “municipal waste”, however, does not cover:
a) Individual materials or articles segregated from the waste, such as wastes of plastics, rubber, wood, paper, textiles, glass or metals and spent batteries which fall in their appropriate headings of the Schedule;
b) Industrial waste;
c) Waste pharmaceuticals
d) Clinical waste
For the purposes of heading 3825, “sewage sludge” means sludge arising from the urban effluent treatment plant and includes pre-treatment waste, scouring and unstablished sludge. Stablished sludge when suitable for use as fertilizer is excluded (Chapter 31).
For the purposes of heading 3825, the expression “other wastes” applies to:
- Clinical waste, that is, contaminated waste arising from medical research, diagnosis, treatment or other medical, surgical, dental or veterinary procedures, which often contain pathogens and pharmaceutical substances and require special disposal procedures (for example, soiled dressings, used gloves and used syringes);
- Waste organic solvents;
- Wastes of metal pickling liquors, hydraulic fluids, brake fluids and anti-freezing fluids; and
- Other wastes from chemical or allied industries.
The expression “other wastes” does not, however, cover wastes which contain mainly petroleum oils or oils obtained from bituminous minerals (heading 2710).
For the purposes of heading 3826, the term “biodiesel” means mono-alkyl esters of fatty acids of a kind used as a fuel, derived from animal or vegetable fats and oils whether or not used.

Import Policy Conditions
- Import of hazardous chemicals is permitted freely without an import licence, in accordance with the provisions of the Manufacture, Storage and Import Hazardous Chemicals Rules, 1989 (as amended from time to time) (made under the Environment (Protection) Act, 1986).
- Interim PIC procedure is to be followed in case of import of hazardous chemicals and pesticides. Details of Interim Prior Informed Consent (PIC) procedure of the Rotterdam Convention
- Import is permitted by actual users against a license from a country which is a party to the “Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer”. List of countries which are parties to the Montreal Protocol is in Appendix IV to this Schedule. However, import from countries, which are not parties to the Montreal Protocol is ‘Prohibited’.
- Under Section [9] of the Insecticides Act, 1968 all chemicals intended to be used as insecticides, rodenticides, fungicides, herbicides etc. [referred to as ‘insecticides’ under the Act] require mandatory registration for import. In cases, where the ‘insecticide’ is imported for non-insecticidal purpose, an import permit is necessary from the Registration Committee under the Department of Agriculture and Cooperation. The Registration Committee while granting registration or a permit for import of an insecticide spells out the conditions for import which inter alia, may include reference to the source of import. No ‘insecticide’ can be imported from a source other than that specified on the certificate of registration or the permit, as the case may be. In addition, the Registration Committee may issue regulatory guidelines from time to time with respect to safety, efficacy, quality etc. which warrant full compliance from importers.”
