https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=96828 Paddle wheel aerators used exclusively in aquaculture are correctly classified under HSN 84798999 because their primary function is mechanical water agitation and oxygen transfer rather than terrestrial agricultural operations; therefore HSN 8479, as a residual heading for machines with specific functions not elsewhere specified, applies and the unit remains in 84798999. Recent GST rate rationalisation granting a concessional 5% rate to aerators operates by rate notification and does not reclassify goods into HSN 8436; consequently the aerators retain their 8479 classification and associated tariff treatment. Parts exclusively used with these aerators follow the principal machine classification and are not reallocated to 8436. en-us Thu, 12 Feb 2026 10:36:35 +0530 Thu, 12 Feb 2026 10:36:35 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=96828 Paddle wheel aerators used exclusively in aquaculture are correctly classified under HSN 84798999 because their primary function is mechanical water agitation and oxygen transfer rather than terrestrial agricultural operations; therefore HSN 8479, as a residual heading for machines with specific functions not elsewhere specified, applies and the unit remains in 84798999.
