HSN Code Details
Steel manufacturers drive demand for manganese ore sinters, which are agglomerated forms of manganese ore produced by sintering fine particles into porous lumps. The material appears as coarse, dark gray to black granules with a high manganese content.
When shipping, consignments are typically loaded in open‑top containers to allow ventilation and prevent moisture buildup, and the commercial invoice must cite the HSN code 26020070 and note that the commodity is freely exportable from India without a licence.
