Cured, graded or butted tobacco leaves retain the essential character of tobacco leaves and therefore fall under tariff heading 240110 as 'tobacco, not stemmed or stripped'. Curing, grading and removal of butts are treated as non transformative physical operations that do not convert leaves into stemmed/stripped tobacco; accordingly such supplies qualify for the concessional GST classification provided to goods under tariff 240110 and attract the lower notified GST rate.
