In FAQ published on 03/08/2017, in leading dailies, it was clarified that tamarind kernel falls under HS Code 1207 and attracts Nil rate of GST. It is however, clarified that tamarind kernel of seed quality attracts Nil GST, whereas tamarind kernel of other than seed quality attracts 5% GST.
(Here Kernel can be taken as seed if we are going to powder it).
But for Tamarind there are another two codes,
Tamarind [fresh] falls under 0810 and attract Nil GST
Tamarind [dry] falls under 0813 and attract 12% GST
