Pebbles, gravel, broken or crushed stone for aggregates, ballast, or road metalling

NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 2517 10 90 (other pebbles, gravel, broken or crushed stone commonly used for concrete aggregates, road metalling, or railway ballast) is not covered by a Bureau of Indian Standards Quality Control Order and carries no Partner Government Agency clearance requirement at the tariff-line level. Import follows the standard customs procedure: Importer-Exporter Code (IEC), bill of entry, commercial invoice, packing list. Other products within Chapter 25 — such as granules, chippings, and powder of stones classified under headings 2515 or 2516 — occupy distinct tariff lines that may carry separate compliance considerations.

No partner government agency notification covers this tariff line.
A word of counsel

The principal risk at this tariff line is misclassification: crushed stone that is heat-treated or processed to a specific grade may be re-classified to a sibling line within Chapter 25, or — where destined for use as a construction input — attract scrutiny under state-level quality regulations that operate independently of central customs compliance. Customs re-classification on examination triggers retrospective compliance, including potential detention pending resolution. Verify particle size, heat-treatment status, and intended end-use against the customs tariff schedule before lodging the bill of entry.
