GST Rate on HSN 6108
GST on goods is fixed by the entries of Notification No. 9/2025-Central Tax (Rate), in force from 22 September 2025 and amended up to 30 April 2026. The rate shown is the total: half is central tax and half is State tax on a sale within a State, and the whole is charged as IGST on an inter-State sale or an import. Read the description in the entry, not only the code: the same heading can sit in two Schedules.
| GST rate | Entry | Codes named | Goods covered by the entry |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5% | Schedule I, S. No. 388 | 61 | Article of apparel and clothing accessories, knitted or crocheted, of sale value not exceeding Rs 2500 per piece (chapter-wide entry) |
| 18% | Schedule II, S. No. 197 | 61 | Articles of apparel and clothing accessories, knitted or crocheted, of sale value exceeding Rs. 2500 per piece (chapter-wide entry) |
| 18% | Schedule II, S. No. 639 | Any Chapter | Goods which are not specified in Schedule I, III, IV, V, VI or VII (residual entry) |
Goods of this heading that fall under no specific entry take the residual entry, unless they are exempt under the exemption notification issued with the rate notification.
Customs Duty on HSN 6108
An import pays three things: basic customs duty at the tariff rate, social welfare surcharge at 10% of that duty (unless exempted for the goods), and IGST at the GST rate on the value plus both duties. A registered importer takes credit of the IGST.
- Basic customs duty at
- Social welfare surcharge, 10% of the duty
- IGST at on value plus both
- Total duty and tax
- As a share of the value
Standard rates only: no exemption notification, anti-dumping or safeguard duty, or trade-agreement rate is applied, and the surcharge is taken at 10% although some goods are exempted from it. A registered importer takes credit of the IGST.
6 tariff items of this heading have a specific or compound duty (an amount per unit, or the higher of two) or a duty not shown here. Work those out from the quantity; the working above covers the lines charged on value alone.
Whether an import is Free, Restricted or Prohibited is set line by line in ITC(HS) Schedule 1 (Import Policy), read with its General Notes on standards, quarantine and packaging. That policy line is not reproduced on this page; check it before you place the order.
Export Policy and RoDTEP for HSN 6108
Under Schedule 2 of ITC(HS) 2022 the 21 tariff items are marked: 21 Free. “Free” means no export authorisation is needed; a Restricted item needs one from DGFT, and an STE item moves only through the named State trading enterprise.
No tariff item of this heading appears in Appendix 4R, so RoDTEP is not available on these exports.
- The item-wise import policy (Free, Restricted or Prohibited) of ITC(HS) Schedule 1. Check it before you place an order.
- Exemption notifications, anti-dumping and safeguard duties, and preferential rates under trade agreements. The duty shown is the tariff rate.
- The GST exemption notification. Goods exempt under it pay no GST even if the heading is named in a rate entry.
