995452 SAC Code GST Rate

Review old and new GST rates for Roof Framing Construction under 995452 SAC Code.

Roof framing construction services are treated as works contract or civil engineering services under GST. Earlier, different ways of billing material and labour or combining roof framing with full construction sometimes led to different effective tax results for similar projects, which made it difficult to keep a consistent tax position.

After the September 2025 changes, most roof framing construction services under SAC 995452 generally fall in the 18 percent slab with input tax credit. This standard rate applies where roof frames, trusses and rafters are fabricated and installed as part of a works contract, unless a specific notification grants a different treatment for a particular scheme.

Does SAC 995452 include roof framing and truss installation?

Yes. Installing roof trusses, main purlins, rafters and other framing members for roofs is covered under 995452. It applies to both pitched and flat roofs where the main service is structural framing, not just sheet fixing or waterproofing which have their own specialised codes.

What GST rate applies to services under SAC 995452?

Building and roof framing services under 995452 are generally taxed at 18% with ITC, along with other special trade construction services. Any different rate would need a clear GST notification. In most commercial and industrial jobs, contractors safely apply 18% on their framing invoices.

Is SAC 995452 used for both residential and commercial framing work?

Can businesses claim ITC on framing services billed under SAC 995452?
