HSN classification of almond shells influences GST rate and exemption status; forum debate reflects divergent classifications and usage dependency.
Query on HSN classification and GST for almond shells: some contributors classify the product under HSN heading 0802 and cite an exemption under the central tax rate notification, while another records a 5% GST under the same HSN. A participant contests classification under Chapter 8 and requests details of the shells' intended usage, stressing that treatment depends on purpose (for example, use as fuel) and that further factual information is needed to determine the correct tariff and GST outcome.
