Agree with YAGAY AND SUN because S/B is Indian custom clearance docs & B/L is the requirement of party. If you disclose wrong code in S/B you could get on trouble by customs, more over you cant enjoy DBK & MEIS if wrong code mentioned in website. So in B/L you can disclose code required by party and mention your code in S/B will surely solve all your problem.

AI Summary

Tariff classification: use exporter tariff on shipping bill and buyer's HS code on bill of lading for concessions. HS Code 84798990 is a residual classification; exporters must record their correct tariff on the Indian Shipping Bill while the buyer's HS code may be shown on the Bill of Lading to secure destination concessions. Mis-declaration on the Shipping Bill risks loss of export incentives and customs enforcement, so dual disclosure (buyer code on B/L, exporter code on S/B) is the advised compliance practice.
