It helps traders to file GST returns correctly and avoid penalties due to mistakes. The HSN code also facilitates easy transactions in the field of import and export, as it is internationally recognized.<\/p><li style=\"list-style-type: none\"><h3>What is the GST rate for hardware products?<\/h3><p class=\"saswp-faq-answer-text\">Hardware products are generally taxed at 12% or 18%. For example, screws or bolts are generally taxed at 18%, while some common iron products are taxed at 12%. The GST rate is determined according to the specific HSN code.<\/p><li style=\"list-style-type: none\"><h3>What is the HSN code for screws, bolts, and nuts?<\/h3><p class=\"saswp-faq-answer-text\">Iron hardware products such as screws, bolts, nuts, washers, etc., come under HSN code 7318. These are widely used in the industrial and construction sectors. Currently, 18% GST is applicable on such products. Traders can easily calculate taxes and file GST using this code.<\/p><li style=\"list-style-type: none\"><h3>Which HSN code is applicable for door and window fittings or brackets?<\/h3><p class=\"saswp-faq-answer-text\">Door, window, or furniture fittings such as hinges, brackets, mountings, etc., come under HSN code 8302. These are generally used in architecture and furniture. 18% GST is applicable on this category of products. So, traders can use the code to calculate tax while selling such products.<\/p><li style=\"list-style-type: none\"><h3>What is the HSN code of locks and padlocks?<\/h3><p class=\"saswp-faq-answer-text\">Key-operated, combination, or electronic locks fall under HSN code 8301. Such locks are generally subject to 18% GST. Since they are widely used in personal and commercial security systems, traders often use this code.<\/p><li style=\"list-style-type: none\"><h3>Which products fall under HSN code 7326?<\/h3><p class=\"saswp-faq-answer-text\">HSN 7326 generally refers to the &#8220;Other articles of iron or steel&#8221; category. Iron products that are not included in any other specific code come under this code. Such products are generally subject to 12% GST. Traders can use this code according to the nature of the product.<\/p><li style=\"list-style-type: none\"><h3>Is there a separate HSN code for computer hardware products?<\/h3><p class=\"saswp-faq-answer-text\">There is no separate code for computer hardware. Each component is classified separately. For example, CPUs and laptops come under HSN 8471, while telecommunication equipment comes under HSN 8517. So, traders have to select the correct code according to the different parts.<\/p><li style=\"list-style-type: none\"><h3>Which code is used for electrical hardware items?<\/h3><p class=\"saswp-faq-answer-text\">Electrical hardware like switches, sockets, circuit breakers, etc., is classified under HSN 8536. They are generally charged 18% GST. Since they are different from mechanical hardware, a separate code is applicable. Using the correct code makes tax assessment easier.<\/p><li style=\"list-style-type: none\"><h3>Is GST the same for hardware across India?<\/h3><p class=\"saswp-faq-answer-text\">Yes, GST is a unified tax system. So, the tax rate levied on hardware is the same across the country. However, traders must use the correct HSN code, as if the code is different, the rate may differ. This can lead to miscalculation and penalties.<\/p><li style=\"list-style-type: none\"><h3>What is the difference between HSN codes 8302 and 7318?<\/h3><p class=\"saswp-faq-answer-text\">HSN 7318 is mainly used for fastening materials such as screws, bolts, nuts, and washers. On the other hand, HSN 8302 is applicable for door, window, or furniture fittings such as hinges and brackets. Although 18% GST is generally applicable in both cases, the classification is different.<\/p><li style=\"list-style-type: none\"><h3>What kind of problems can a trader face if he does not use the HSN code?<\/h3><p class=\"saswp-faq-answer-text\">Using the wrong or missing HSN code can lead to discrepancies in the GST return. This can result in penalties being imposed on the trader or a delay in the refund process. Using the correct code can avoid legal complications and make tax filing transparent.<\/p><li style=\"list-style-type: none\"><h3>What goods fall under HSN code 7323?<\/h3><p class=\"saswp-faq-answer-text\">HSN 7323 mainly refers to iron household goods such as kitchenware, pot scourers, or steel polishing pads. Such goods are generally subject to 18% GST. Traders can use this code while selling iron household goods.<\/p><li style=\"list-style-type: none\"><h3>What percentage of GST is usually levied on hardware fittings?<\/h3><p class=\"saswp-faq-answer-text\">Doors, windows, furniture, or other structural fittings are generally levied at 18%. These are widely used in the architecture and interior sectors. Traders can maintain transparency in GST determination using this code.<\/p><li style=\"list-style-type: none\"><h3>How will traders know if there is any change in GST rates?<\/h3><p class=\"saswp-faq-answer-text\">Government notifications are published whenever there is any change in GST rates or HSN codes. Traders can stay informed about the latest changes by regularly following the GST Council updates and official circulars. This eliminates the possibility of misapplication.<\/p><\/ul><\/div>\n\n\n<p><strong>Read more &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/corpbiz.io\/learning\/hsn-code-chapter-wise-code-list-and-section-wise-code-list\/\">HSN Code \u2013 Chapter Wise Code List and Section Wise Code List<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"text-align:center; margin: 30px 0;\">\n  <a href=\"https:\/\/wa.me\/919121230280?text=Hello%20Corpbiz,%20I%20would%20like%20to%20know%20the%20correct%20HSN%20Code%20for%20my%20hardware%20products%20and%20related%20GST%20rates.%20Please%20assist%20me\"\n     style=\"\n       display: inline-block;\n       padding: 16px 36px;\n       background: linear-gradient(135deg, #1A73E8, #1558D6);\n       color: #ffffff;\n       text-decoration: none;\n       font-size: 18px;\n       font-weight: 600;\n       border-radius: 50px;\n       box-shadow: 0 6px 18px rgba(26, 115, 232, 0.35);\n       transition: all 0.3s ease;\n       letter-spacing: 0.5px;\n     \"\n     onmouseover=\"this.style.transform='translateY(-3px)'; this.style.boxShadow='0 10px 24px rgba(26,115,232,0.45)'\"\n     onmouseout=\"this.style.transform='translateY(0)'; this.style.boxShadow='0 6px 18px rgba(26,115,232,0.35)'\"\n  >\nBook a Free Consultation with Our Experts.<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Knowing the correct HSN code and the associated GST rate for hardware goods is crucial for every businessman.
