HSN Code 7803 covers lead bars, rods, profiles, and wire, whereas HSN Code 7804 includes lead plates, sheets, strips, foil, powders, and flakes, excluding grains and spangles. HSN Code 7805 applies to lead tubes, pipes, and tube or pipe fittings such as couplings, elbows, and sleeves. Lastly, HSN Code 7806 includes other lead articles not classified elsewhere.
