One named exception inside a broader waste heading

HSN 2619 covers slag, dross, scalings and other iron/steel manufacturing waste generally at 18% — except Linz-Donawitz (LD) slag specifically, which gets a concessional 5% rate as its own named carve-out. Granulated slag is excluded from the general 18% entry entirely (classified elsewhere). If you're dealing in steel-mill byproducts, confirm which specific waste type you have — LD slag, granulated slag, and other slag/dross are not interchangeable for GST purposes even though they share a manufacturing origin.

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