HSN code CHAPTER-27
Mineral fuels, mineral oils and products of their distillation; bituminous substances; mineral waxes
The information provided below about HSN codes are used for GST purpose to classify goods. You may reconfirm with GST authorities whether your product HSN code is classified correctly below. The HSN codes under 02 digits, 04 digits, 06 digits and 08 digits explains and classifies broadly for each section of goods.
Notes:
1. This Chapter does not cover:
(a) separate chemically defined organic compounds other than pure methane and propane which are to be classified in heading 2711 00 00;
(b) medicaments of heading 3003 00 00 or 3004 00 00; or
(c) mixed unsaturated hydrocarbons of heading 3301 00 00, 3302 00 00 or 3805 00 00.
2. References in heading 2710 00 00 to "petroleum oils and oils obtained from bituminous minerals" include not only petroleum oils and oils obtained from bituminous minerals but also similar oils, as well as those consisting mainly of mixed unsaturated hydrocarbons, obtained by any process, provided that the weight of the non-aromatic constituents exceed that of the aromatic constituents. However, the references do not include liquid synthetic polyolefin of which less than 60% by volume distils at 300°C, after conversion to 1,013 milliards when a reduced-pressure distillation method is used (Chapter 39).
3. For the purposes of heading 2710 00 00, "waste oils" means waste containing mainly petroleum oils and oils obtained from bituminous minerals (as described in Note 2 to this Chapter), whether or not mixed with water. These include:
(a) such oils no longer fit for use as primary products (for example, used lubricating oils, used hydraulic oils and used transformer oils);
(b) sludge oils from the storage tanks of petroleum oils, mainly containing such oils and high concentration of additives (for example, chemicals) used in the manufacture of the primary products; and
(c) such oils in the form of emulsions in water or mixtures with water, such as those resulting from oil spills, storage tank washings, or from the use of cutting oils for machining operations.
Sub-heading Notes
1.For the purposes of sub-headings 2707 10 00, 2707 20 00, 2707 30 00, 2707 40 00 and 2707 60 00, the terms "benzoyl", "(benzene)", "Toulon" (toluene), "xylol" (xylenes), "naphthalene" or "phenols" apply to products which contain more than 50% by weight of benzene, toluene, xylene, naphthalene or phenols, respectively.
2.For the purposes of sub-heading 2710 11 00, "light oils and preparations" are those of which 90% or more by volume (including losses) distil at 210°C (ASTM D 86 method).
