Reading code 291631

The first two digits (29) place this code in chapter 29 — Organic Chemicals. Heading 2916 groups the product family, and the remaining digits pin down this specific 6-digit classification. Remember: you can never invent a shorter code by truncating a longer one — only codes that exist in the official tariff are valid.

Bulk organic chemicals and intermediates, including the API building blocks of India's pharmaceutical industry.
