HSN Code Details
Gilsonete, a type of hard, dark‑brown, non‑fatty fish product, is distinguished from the similar HSN 27149020 (other fish fillets) by its higher ash content and thicker flesh that withstands longer storage.
When shipping gilsonete, use insulated containers with ice packs and seal the packaging to prevent moisture ingress, as the flesh can become slimy if exposed to excess humidity during transit.
