Curry paste / mixed condiments and seasonings
What does ITC-HS 2103 90 40 cover?
ITC-HS 2103 90 40 covers curry paste / mixed condiments and seasonings. It is a 8-digit line in Chapter 21 of India's tariff schedule (w.e.f. 01.04.2023).
Chapter 21: Miscellaneous edible preparations
Chapter 21 covers prepared mixtures rather than single spices. Blends, curry powders and pastes classify here because they are preparations, not raw spice.
Classification note. This line sits outside Chapter 9, so anything classified here is not counted in India’s headline “spice export” statistics even though the trade treats it as a spice. If you are reconciling our figures against a Spices Board total and the numbers do not agree, this is usually why. It also means the duty and the import paperwork follow the miscellaneous edible preparations regime in your market, not the spice regime.
