HSN code and HS code for auto components
Auto Components is classified under HS heading 8708 (parts and accessories of the motor vehicles of headings 8701 to 8705). The exact 6-digit subheading depends on the material, construction and specification of what you make, and the 8-digit ITC-HS line is what India actually files.
In India the GST HSN code and the export ITC-HS code are the same nomenclature, so this line is the one your GST invoice and your shipping bill share. The classification is shown here; the applicable GST rate is not.

Subheadings under HS 8708
Which one applies depends on your exact specification. Picking the wrong line changes the duty your buyer pays and the incentive you can claim.

- 870821 — Vehicles; parts of bodies, safety seat belts

A classification is a fact any lookup can give you. Heading 8708 sits in chapter 87 (transport & vehicles), and the subheading that actually applies to your auto components depends on material, construction and specification. Getting that choice right changes the duty your buyer pays. But the correct code still does not tell you which countries are buying auto components right now, what duty each of them charges on the Indian line, or whether that demand has grown or faded. Those answers come from trade data, not from a code table, and they are what decides whether a market is worth entering at all. diipl's free Market Research Report answers them for your specific product.
The 6-digit line is international. India requires the 8-digit ITC-HS for both import and export. Look up every 8-digit line under 8708 free, with whether India actually exported on it, in the HS code finder. What a code table cannot tell you is where the product sells.
Where does your auto components fit in the global market?
India's auto-component industry supplies Tier-1 OEMs worldwide from three dominant cluster zones: Pune-Chakan, Faridabad-Gurgaon NCR and Chennai. Tariffs are already low or zero across every major market, including Japan under CEPA, so the real barrier is OEM qualification and IATF 16949 certification, not duty. That makes this a relationship business more than a price business. diipl identifies and verifies the Tier-1 buyers actively sourcing, so certified Indian component makers get in front of decision-makers directly. diipl pinpoints the high-demand, low-tariff markets where you can win, generates the verified buyers there, and secures your compliance as you scale to the world.

Frequently asked questions
What is the HS code for auto components?
Auto Components is classified under HS heading 8708 (parts and accessories of the motor vehicles of headings 8701 to 8705). The exact 6-digit subheading depends on the material, construction and specification, and India files an 8-digit ITC-HS line on the shipping bill. You can look up every 8-digit line free, and whether India actually exported on it, in the diipl HS code finder.
What is the difference between the 6-digit HS code and the 8-digit ITC-HS code?
The first 6 digits are the international Harmonized System subheading, the same in every member country. India extends it to 8 digits as the ITC-HS line, and that is what appears on your shipping bill. The 8-digit line decides the duty your buyer pays, whether an FTA preferential rate and certificate of origin apply, your RoDTEP or drawback rate, and whether an export licence is required. Indian ITC-HS lines are re-notified periodically, so a code that was correct last year may no longer be active.
