How to read this code
84.14 is the four-digit HS heading for air or vacuum pumps, air or other gas. To clear customs your destination country extends it to a full 8–10 digit code and assigns the duty rate. India's preferential trade agreements (UAE CEPA, Australia ECTA, and others) can reduce or zero out that duty on many machinery & electrical equipment lines — check our import guides for your market.
In India this same number is called the HSN code (8414): GST registration, invoices and e-way bills all classify goods by HSN, and the applicable GST rate is notified against the 4–8 digit HSN — so Indian suppliers will quote you HSN 8414 for goods under this heading.
