Headings in HSN Chapter 10
The GST column shows the rate or rates at which Notification 9/2025-Central Tax (Rate) names the heading; a heading named nowhere takes the residual 18%. The duty column is the basic customs duty in the Customs Tariff.
| Heading | Description | GST rate | Basic customs duty | Codes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1001 | Wheat and meslin | 5% | 40% / 100% | 5 |
| 1002 | Rye | 5% | Free | 2 |
