Dear Sir/ Madam,
The Central Board of Excise and Customs (CBEC) has issued a Press Release regarding changes from WCO harmonized system nomenclature 2012 edition to the 2017 edition which are to be implemented from 01/01/2017. Accordingly, in respect of certain commodities H. S. Codes are changing w. e. f. 01/01/2017.
These changes primarily relate to following chapters of ITC (HS), as well as customs tariff:

As far as chemicals are concerned, around 45 amendments have been effected. The Copy of Press release is attached for your ready reference and also available on CBEC website (http://www.cbec.gov.in/htdocs-cbec/hsn-2017-trade).
Members are advised to take note and ensure that the classifications of goods are in accordance with HSN 2017, while filing the customs declarations for the goods to be imported or exported, from 01/01/2017 onwards.
