Case Laws     GST     AAR

Classification of goods - hand sanitizers - Isopropyl rubbing alcohol IP - Chlorhexidine Gluconate - Isopropyl Alcohol solution - The applicant is of the understanding that as per common parlance, hand sanitizers are bought as drugs. We do not accept this contention. We observe that, people buy hand sanitizzers as an alternative to soap and for disinfecting purpose. In the present case, it is seen that the alcohol-based hand sanitizers, as the name itself suggests is to sanitize the hands and disinfect them and hence cannot be covered under Medicaments. - AAR
