Sugar confectionery (chewing gum, toffees)
Under the Harmonized System of Nomenclature (HSN), the code 1704 specifically identifies sugar confectionery (chewing gum, toffees) for the purpose of taxation and trade in Bharat. This ensures uniform classification across all Indian states and Union Territories.
"Classifying sugar confectionery (chewing gum, toffees) correctly is critical to avoid litigation. While the base rate is 18%, always check for anti-dumping duties if importing, especially under the Confectionery category. AasanKhata automatically monitors these shifts for you."
