What is the HSN code for carpet?
Carpet falls under HSN 5703, in chapter 57 (Carpets).
Chapter 57 splits floor coverings by how they are made: knotted (5701), woven (5702), tufted (5703), felt (5704) and others (5705). All moved from 12% to 5% on 22 September 2025, which helps the hand knotted carpet trade. Carpets of plastics or rubber are not textiles and are classified in chapters 39 or 40.

Sample GST invoice line for carpet
Here is how a line for carpet looks on a tax invoice within one state: 10 × carpet at Rs 4,500.00 each, taxed at 5%. The figures are an example, not a market price.
| Item | HSN | Qty | Rate (Rs) | Taxable (Rs) | CGST (Rs) | SGST (Rs) | Total (Rs) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Carpet | 5701 | 10 × carpet | 4,500.00 | 45,000.00 | 1,125.00 | 1,125.00 | 47,250.00 |
Sold to a buyer in another state, the same line carries IGST of Rs 2,250.00 instead of CGST and SGST. Make the full invoice with the GST invoice format: it fills in the tax split, round off and amount in words.
