Grinding wheels of synthetic abrasives
Grinding wheels of synthetic agglomerated abrasives
HSN 6804 22 10 (Grinding wheels of synthetic abrasives) 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 abrasive and cutting articles within Chapter 68 — particularly those of natural stone or ceramics — may be classified under sibling tariff lines that carry distinct compliance obligations.
The principal risk at this tariff line is misclassification: grinding wheels of natural stone, agglomerated natural abrasives, or ceramics are separately classified within Chapter 68 and may attract compliance that does not apply here. A customs re-classification on examination — triggered by ambiguity in the declared material composition — results in detention pending retrospective compliance and potential duty recovery. Importers should document the synthetic abrasive composition precisely in technical datasheets presented alongside the bill of entry.
