Rate of gst on namkeen


This query is : Resolved 

20 June 2017 What is the rate of GST on Namkeen? Is the rate different in following situations:

Situation 1: Namkeen sold loose
Situation 2: Namkeen sold in packaged form in transparent bag having no name of manufacturer
Situation 3: Namkeen sold in packaged form in bags printed with firm name but trade mark not registered and not branded
Situation 4: Namkeen sold in packaged form in bags printed with firm name with registered trade mark



20 June 2017 12% GST applicable on all the above.
2106 90 Namkeens, bhujia, mixture, chabena and similar edible preparations in ready for consumption form.

20 June 2017 Thanks Mr. SEETHARAMAN
So as per your reply, no difference is made in branded and unbranded namkeens (it is there in Gujarat VAT. In Gujarat VAT, unbranded namkeen is exempt).

If all are covered under 12% then what is covered in "READY TO EAT PACAKGED FOOD AND MILK CONTAINING EDIBLE NUTS WITH SUGAR OR OTHER INGREDIENTS" under same HSN code which is taxable @ 18%

One more question: Does namkeen include kachori, samosa, wafer, and other similar items

21 June 2017 Namkeen includes samusa kachori etc. Packaged food and masla,a milk is different from is namkeen..

22 June 2017 GST rate is 12% in all forms

05 July 2017 What if the Maker and reseller of Namkeen and Sweets (Mitahi) wants to obtain Composition Scheme then Should he opt as manufacturer or Traders ?

05 July 2017 In both case you can go for Composition Scheme.

06 July 2017 But what if he do both activities i mean making mithai in own place (i.e. Manufacture) and reselling Namkin and all (i.e. Trading), in short he do both activities at one place in one GSTIN then in such case he should opt for 1% (trader) or 2%(Manufacturer) ?
I have opted for them all in Manufacture i.e. in 2% in higher side. Whats your Views ?

06 July 2017 Making mithai in own place will not fall under manufacture opt for 1%.
