GST Council introduced GST Rates on July 1, 2017. The tax collection rates for these are typically 5%, 12%, 18%, and 28%, depending on the kind of products and services. The GST Council in India places different services and goods, such as the rate of GST on dairy products, milk, eggs, and honey, in different tax categories.
The Harmonised System of Nomenclature code is referred to as HSN code. Under the 2017 GST Act, it is utilised for the categorisation of products. The Central Excise, Customs, and Foreign Trade departments benefit from this categorisation. HSN codes allow items to be internationally recognised and acknowledged. Here is a list of GST rates for dairy products, which fall under chapter 4 of the HSN code:
