Plastic hanger HSN code: 3926 90 61 or 3926 90 69
The plastic hanger HSN code is 3926 90 69, and 3926 90 61 when the hanger is made of polyurethane foam. DGCIS chapter 39 groups both lines under a "Hangers" label inside 3926 90. The GST portal master shows the same two codes only as "of polyurethane foam" and "other", so searching the portal for "hanger" will not find them.
| Line | DGCIS label | GST portal label |
|---|---|---|
| 3926 90 61 | Hangers: of polyurethane foam | Of polyurethane foam |
| 3926 90 69 | Hangers: other | Other |
| 3926 90 99 | Other (catch-all, not the hanger line) | Other |

Wooden hangers are easier. 4421 10 00 is named "clothes hangers" in both the GST portal master and DGCIS chapter 44, so a wooden coat hanger has a line of its own.
Invoices and the GSTR-1 HSN summary (Table 12) need 4 digits when last year’s aggregate turnover was up to ₹5 crore (4421, 3926 or 7326) and 6 digits above it (442110, 392690, or 732620 / 732690), picked from the portal drop-down (GSTN GSTR-1 FAQ, checked 30 Oct 2026).
Hanger GST rate mistakes: which rate applies?
A wooden clothes hanger is 5% GST: Schedule I S.No. 306 of Notification 9/2025 names "clothes hangers" under 4421, in force from 22 September 2025. The only 4421 goods at 18% are those the entry carves out, namely wood paving blocks, densified wood articles and parts of domestic decorative tableware or kitchenware (Schedule II S.No. 163).
On 2 Nov 2026 we found code sites printing 12% for wooden hangers and 12% or 28% for plastic ones. None of those figures appears in Notification 9/2025 for these lines, so take the rate from the schedule entry, not from a code site.
Plastic hangers are 18% under Schedule II S.No. 127; the 3926 exceptions in that entry are bangles of plastic, plastic beads and feeding bottles only. Steel hangers are 18% under S.No. 305. The one 5% entry that mentions 7326, Schedule I S.No. 410, is for geometry and colour boxes, not hangers.
Two more slips: one site gives 3926 90 59 for hangers, but that is the retroreflective sheeting line in DGCIS. And a wooden hanger with a steel hook mixes two materials; confirm its code with your CA.
Hanger HSN code and GST rate: what to enter on a listing
GST on hangers is 5% for wood (S.No. 306) and 18% for plastic (S.No. 127) and iron or steel (S.No. 305). Three checks get the listing right.
- Check what it is made of: wood is 4421, plastic 3926, iron or steel 7326.
- Enter 4 or 6 digits by last year’s turnover; use 8 digits when you want the named line, such as 4421 10 00.
- Choose the rate: wood 5%, plastic 18%, steel 18%, from 22 Sept 2025.
Worked example: wooden coat hangers and a plastic hanger pack
A clothing seller ships a pack of wooden coat hangers and a pack of plastic hangers to the same buyer. The invoice carries two lines: 4421 10 00 at 5% for the wooden pack and 3926 90 69 at 18% for the plastic one. A steel-wire hanger pack in the same order would add a third line under 7326 at 18%.
Checked against the GST portal master
On 2 Nov 2026 we pulled the GST portal master for 4421 (44 lines), 3926 (51 lines) and 7326 (20 lines), and read the DGCIS chapter 39 text where the "Hangers" label sits. The portal file alone would not tell you which 3926 line is the hanger one; the DGCIS label does.
Related HSN codes for home and storage sellers
Hanger packs usually sell next to wardrobe and home items, each with its own page. Aluminium and other non-steel metal hangers are not covered here; check the GST portal for those.
