More sub-splits than the code number suggests

HSN 2515 isn't one uniform rate — it's several related entries with different conditions:

  • Ecaussine and other calcareous building/monumental stone (excluding marble, travertine, and mirror-polished ready-to-use stone): 5%.
  • Marble and travertine, crude or roughly trimmed: 5%.
  • Marble and travertine blocks: 5%.
  • Marble and travertine, other than blocks (i.e. processed/cut pieces beyond raw block form): 18% — a notably higher rate under the same base heading.

If you deal in marble specifically, the processing stage matters: raw blocks stay at the concessional 5% rate, but once marble is cut/finished beyond block form, it moves to 18%. This is one of the more consequential rate splits in the stone/mineral chapter — worth confirming exactly which entry your product matches rather than assuming a single "building stone" rate applies across the board.

This is one of several HSN codes carrying more than one GST rate under the same heading — see the full list of examples.
