What is the GST rate of n95mask & HSN code
Already answered many times
HSN CODE IS 6307.90 AND GST RATE IS 5%
DETAIL EXPLANATION:-
Recently World custom Organisation prepared jointly with the World Health Organisation (WHO) HS classification reference for Covid-19 medical supplies. It provides a 6307.90 HSN code for the below description:-
“Textile face-masks, without a replaceable filter or mechanical parts, including surgical masks and disposable face-masks made of non-woven textiles. This includes the masks known as N95 Particulate Respirators. Note: the heading also includes N95 respirators with simple exhalation valves as these remain respirator masks and are not gas masks.”
The above description is clear that an N95 mask without a valve or with a valve made of nonwoven textiles will cover under the 6307.90 HSN code.
GST Rate on 6307 is 5%( if sale value not exceeding Rs. 1000 per piece) or
12% (sale value exceeding Rs. 1000 per piece).
