The previous value-based system (5% for ≤₹1,000, 12% for >₹1,000) has been ELIMINATED, making ALL home textile products uniformly affordable at 5% GST regardless of price or brand.

What Changed Under GST 2.0 (Sept 22, 2025):

  • No More Threshold Confusion: Simple 5% flat rate on ALL textile articles

HSN Chapter 63 encompasses all "other made-up textile articles" that are neither raw fabrics (Chapters 50-60) nor garments/apparel (Chapters 61-62). This includes blankets, bed linen (bedsheets, pillowcases, mattress covers), table linen (tablecloths, napkins), toilet and kitchen linen (towels, dishcloths), curtains, drapes, interior blinds, cushion covers, bedspreads, quilts, tents, camping goods, tarpaulins, sacks and bags, tufted textile floor coverings, tapestries, embroidery, worn clothing, and textile rags.

Under GST 2.0 effective September 22, 2025 and continuing through 2026, Chapter 63 products enjoy a revolutionary UNIFORM 5% GST rate structure. The previous complicated value-based system (5% for items ≤₹1,000, 12% for items >₹1,000) has been completely abolished, making ALL home textiles and made-up articles uniformly affordable at 5% GST regardless of price, brand, or quality.
