Other cylindrical grinding machines, numerically controlled
HSN 8460 23 00 (other cylindrical grinding machines, numerically controlled) 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 machine-tools for finishing metal under Chapter 84 may be subject to separate compliance obligations depending on the specific finishing operation or machine type; classification at the correct 8-digit level is the principal importer risk.
The absence of compliance at this tariff line does not extend to all machine-tools within Chapter 84; gear grinding or gear finishing machines classified under heading 8461, and certain other precision finishing equipment, may attract distinct compliance regimes. Re-classification on examination by customs — for instance, if a machine performs gear finishing rather than cylindrical grinding — triggers retrospective compliance obligations, including detention pending resolution. Verify the machine's functional specification and control type against the customs tariff before relying on the absence of compliance here.
