Skinny Jeans HSN Code
Skinny jeans are basically a fit style within the same denim trouser category. They follow the same HSN code as regular fit jeans because classification looks at the type of garment and fabric, not only the cut. So men skinny jeans still fall under the same trouser heading as other men jeans.
Brands should not create separate HSN codes in software for slim fit, narrow fit or tapered fit jeans. Instead, they should use one correct jeans HSN code for all fits and control variations through style codes and size codes.
HSN Code for Men's Jeans and Other Apparel
Men jeans usually share the same HSN family as other trousers, shorts and similar lower garments for men. If a garment is a cotton chino or twill trouser, it may still fall under the same heading as denim jeans because both are trousers.
Retailers who sell both jeans and other menswear like shirts, jackets and shorts should map each category to the correct garment heading. This avoids confusion during stock audits and ensures that GST is calculated correctly on each sale.
Conclusion
Jeans HSN code is linked to the broader trouser headings for men, women and children rather than to fabric names alone. Skinny, slim and regular fits usually share the same code, so the main focus should be on the type of garment and the target wearer. Using the correct jeans HSN code keeps billing simple and improves GST compliance for garment businesses.
