HSN code

5407

GST rate

5%

Check your exact product. This rate is right for the usual case, but sub-headings under 5407 can differ — material, packaging or product claims can move an item to another slab.

The mistake sellers make with 5407

Saree classification follows fibre, not the garment. A synthetic saree sits in 5407, a cotton saree in 5208, and a silk saree in 5007 — three different chapters for what a customer sees as one product category. Blended sarees follow whichever fibre predominates by weight, which is why your supplier's fabric composition label matters more than the product title.

Where 5407 splits

The 4-digit heading is what most sellers report, but it divides further. If you report 6 or 8 digits, these are the branches under 5407:

What this looks like on an invoice

A ₹899 georgette saree sold within your state. On an interstate sale the same ₹44.95 is charged as a single IGST line instead of the CGST/SGST split.

Selling this on a marketplace

Meesho's saree category is one of its largest, and mixed-fibre listings are common. If you source from a wholesaler who does not specify composition, ask before you set the code — you cannot infer polyester from price alone.

Once the code is settled, the GST calculator will add or remove GST from any price, and the profit calculators show what you actually keep after marketplace fees.

If a rate you found elsewhere does not match this page, check the date on it. The 12% and 28% slabs were removed on 22 September 2025 — see the full before-and-after slab table.
