Frequently asked questions
What does Section H cover in NIC-2008?
Section H (Transportation and storage) is a top-level sector of NIC-2008. It groups 5 divisions and 50 activity codes that share this broad economic area.
Do I register a business using a section letter?
No. Registrations such as Udyam, GST and company incorporation use the numeric NIC code (4, 5 or 6 digits), not the section letter. The section only tells you which part of the classification to explore. Open a division below to reach the specific code for your activity.
How do I find the exact NIC code inside Section H?
Drill down from a division to a group, then a class, then the sub-class that matches your activity. You can also use the search box to jump straight to a code by activity name. If you are unsure, IncorpX provides assistance for selecting the correct code for your registrations.
