The GST rate on packaging boxes made of MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard) would depend on the specific characteristics and uses of the boxes. Here's a general clarification: 1. *GST rate on MDF*: MDF is classified under HS Code 4411 and attracts a GST rate of 12% (6% CGST + 6% SGST). 2. *Packaging boxes*: Packaging boxes made of MDF are classified under HS Code 4819 (Cartons, boxes, and cases of paper or paperboard) or HS Code 4820 (Boxes, cases, and other containers of paper or paperboard). 3. *GST rate on packaging boxes*: The GST rate on packaging boxes made of MDF would be: - 12% (6% CGST + 6% SGST) if the boxes are classified under HS Code 4819 or 4820 and are not specifically exempted. - 18% (9% CGST + 9% SGST) if the boxes are classified as "special purpose boxes" or "customized boxes" and are not exempted. 4. *Exemptions*: Some packaging boxes might be exempted from GST or attract a lower rate, depending on the specific use or industry. For example: - Boxes used for packaging food items might be exempted or attract a lower GST rate. - Boxes used for packaging pharmaceutical products might attract a lower GST rate. To determine the exact GST rate on packaging boxes made of MDF, consider consulting a tax professional or seeking guidance from the GST authorities. Provide them with the specific details of your packaging boxes, including their classification, use, and industry, to get an accurate clarification.
