Check your exact product. This rate is right for the usual case, but sub-headings under 3919 can differ — material, packaging or product claims can move an item to another slab.
The mistake sellers make with 3919
The name misleads people. Most products sold as 'tempered glass' for phones are laminated film with an adhesive layer, which is why they sit in the plastics chapter rather than the glass chapter (70). If your product is genuinely glass with no plastic film component, the classification argument changes — but the overwhelming majority of marketplace screen guards are film.
Where 3919 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 3919:
| Code | Covers |
|---|---|
| 3919 10 | Self-adhesive plates and film in rolls up to 20cm wide |
| 3919 90 | Other self-adhesive plastic plates and sheets |
What this looks like on an invoice
| Taxable value | ₹149.00 |
|---|---|
| CGST @ 9% | ₹13.41 |
| SGST @ 9% | ₹13.41 |
| Invoice total | ₹175.82 |
A ₹149 screen guard sold within your state. On an interstate sale the same ₹26.82 is charged as a single IGST line instead of the CGST/SGST split.
Selling this on a marketplace
Screen guards are frequently bundled with mobile covers as a combo. A combo priced as one SKU where both items carry 18% is straightforward; mixed-rate bundles are where problems start.
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.
