Mustard Oil HSN Code: Classification for Refined and Edible Oils
Mustard oil is widely used in Indian kitchens as a cooking medium and in industry for non-food applications. Because the same oil can be sold in refined, cold pressed or blended forms, the correct HSN code and GST treatment are important for every trader and manufacturer.
In the customs and GST tariff, mustard oil is generally grouped with other rapeseed and colza oils under the vegetable oils chapter. The exact subheading depends on whether the oil is crude, refined or further processed, and whether it is supplied for edible or technical use.

What is the HSN Code for Mustard Oil?
Mustard oil is commonly classified under heading 1514, which covers rape, colza or mustard oil and their fractions. Within this heading, separate subheadings identify crude oil and refined oil. Businesses should select the detailed 6 or 8 digit code that matches the form in which they buy or sell mustard oil.
How Refined and Edible Mustard Oil Are Classified under HSN
Refined mustard oil supplied for edible use usually falls under a subheading of 1514 that specifically covers refined oils. Cold pressed or kachi ghani mustard oil may be treated as a type of crude or unrefined oil depending on the process used. If the oil is blended with other edible oils, the classification can shift to the heading that best describes the blend.
The HSN Code for Cold Pressed Mustard Oil
Cold pressed mustard oil is typically considered a variety of mustard oil produced without heavy refining. It still falls under heading 1514, but the exact subheading can depend on whether the product is described as crude, refined or otherwise processed in the tariff. For accurate classification, the product label, manufacturing process and specification should be compared with the wording in the tariff notes.
GST on Mustard Oil Products
Edible oils like mustard oil usually enjoy a concessional GST rate. In earlier GST schedules, many edible oils were placed at a lower slab such as 5% when sold for household consumption. However, GST treatment can differ for bulk industrial supplies, blends or value-added products. The packaging and end use of the oil also influence whether exemption conditions or concessional rates apply.
Businesses should therefore confirm both the HSN classification and the latest rate entry that matches their product description, such as refined edible oil in consumer packs or bulk mustard oil for industrial use.
