What is the HSN code for carpets?

In GST, most carpets and other textile floor coverings are grouped under chapter 57. Hand knotted or hand tufted carpets often fall under headings like 5701, while tufted and machine made floor coverings fall under headings such as 5703. The exact sub code is chosen based on the fibre, method of manufacture and pile construction.

Is floor carpet classified differently under HSN?

Floor carpets are classified by their material and manufacturing process. For example, a woollen carpet may have a different sub code from a synthetic carpet even though both are used on floors. Wall to wall floor carpet tiles can also have separate lines within chapter 57.

Carpet flooring and floor carpet classification

Carpet flooring and floor carpets used in residential or commercial sites are dealt with in the same chapter, but the specific HSN code can vary. When carpets are supplied along with installation, part of the value may be treated as a service, so businesses should structure invoices carefully. For pure sale of carpet material, the goods HSN code of chapter 57 is used.

What is the HSN code for woolen carpets?

Traditional woollen carpets and rugs are usually covered under headings like 5701 or 5702, depending on whether they are knotted, woven or tufted. They may attract a concessional GST rate where the supply is of handmade carpets produced on a small scale. Machine made woollen carpets can fall under a different sub heading of the same chapter.

Does GST differ for handmade and machine-made carpets?

Yes, in many notifications handmade carpets, rugs and durries have been given a lower GST rate compared with some machine made synthetic carpets. The policy is to support traditional handloom and craft sectors. Dealers must therefore identify whether the carpet is handmade or machine produced before deciding the final GST rate.
