Plain
Plain aluminium containers for compressed or liquefied gas
HSN 7613 00 11 (plain aluminium containers for compressed or liquefied gas) 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. Aluminium gas containers with specific markings, certifications, or intended uses — such as those classified under distinct sibling lines within Chapter 76 or pressure vessels subject to PESO oversight — may attract separate compliance at the tariff-line or end-use level.
The absence of a Quality Control Order at this tariff line does not insulate the importer from end-use regulatory exposure: aluminium cylinders intended for industrial gas, medical oxygen, or LPG applications are subject to the Petroleum and Explosives Safety Organisation (PESO) framework, which operates independently of the customs tariff classification. Re-classification by the assessing officer — for instance, to a line covering finished pressure cylinders — triggers retrospective compliance and may result in detention pending the relevant licence or approval. Confirm the product's intended use, pressure rating, and finish state before relying on the absence of compliance at this tariff line.
