1. Classification
Search by exact tariff code, product facts, composition, process and use. Chapter guidance never becomes a chapter-wide rate.
Important: This finder distinguishes a verified notification entry from product classification. Name matches are candidates until the exact HSN/SAC and all conditions are confirmed.
Coverage boundary: This release contains 59 certified current goods-rate entries, 28 certified goods exemptions and 21 direct-source service condition cards. The remaining controlled serial positions are source-gated and cannot generate an automatic rate. Do not market this release as a complete all-item GST rate database. This is an independent Finin2min research tool, not affiliated with or endorsed by CBIC or the GST Council — see the methodology and terms of use.

How to use the HSN/SAC finder safely
A keyword match is a classification lead, not a final GST rate conclusion. Classify the supply first, then verify the description, HSN/SAC, packaging/condition language, exemption entry and effective notification before using a rate.
Decision checklist
- Decide whether the supply is goods, services or a composite/mixed supply before choosing an HSN/SAC entry.
- Match the legal description and all conditions—not only the commercial product name.
- Use the supply date and current notification history; a historical or conditional rate may not apply today.
- Where classification is genuinely disputed or high-value, preserve product literature/specifications and obtain professional/advance-ruling advice as appropriate.
Primary checkpoint: CBIC GST goods/services rates. The finder remains decision support and should not override the tariff/notification text.
