ted for GST is a 4-digit classification with digits
99 pre-fixed to indicate that these are services. This scheme of classification has been
annexed to the Rate Notification No. 11/2017-CT(R) dated 28.06.2017.
3 In the said Notification, the GST rate schedule specifying the applicable GST rates for
different services does not mention the classification of services at the six digit level.
Therefore, an attempt has been made to harmonize the GST Rate Schedule with the
Classification of Services with a view to promote ease of doing business. The document
annexed with this note (pages 1 to 74) is a self-contained draft schedule of GST rates on
services, in which the service code (6-digit), the description of the service and the applicable
rate, along with the condition applicable, are given together. Also, the numerous conditions
specified in the existing rate notification have been standardized, coded and moved to a
separate table which has made the main body of the notification easier to
