I got little clarity for your Query. I just wanna share it with you.

Fresh tamarind is what we use for Tamarind Chutney (It is classified as fruit) and

Dried tamarind is what we use in cooking (Curries like Dhal etc....).

Sir,

What is difference between Tamarind Fresh and Tamarind Dry and how much is the GST slab.

thank u.

[Mayur Khania]

There is no difference between Fresh tamarind and DRY Tamarind. It is Confusing tamarind is Fruit, If tamarind is process convert into powder or paste then we say it is process.

What is clarification on this problem.

Thank u.

Sir

First of all its confusing part, Now a days there are 2 type of tamarind used in household purpose i.e. first full tamarind without skin (it can be with seed and without seed) used in household purpose and as now a days fast foods is in use many have been extracting tamarind in pulp and powder format

please rectify
