How to choose a NIC code for Plastic Products Manufacturing

A quick check before you use a code in a registration.

  1. 1Match your main activity: identify what your plastic products manufacturing business actually does day to day.
  2. 2Start with 222001 (Manufacture of semi-finished plastic products (plastic plates, sheets, blocks, film, foil, strip and similar articles)), the closest NIC-2025 nic code for this activity, and open it to confirm what it covers.
  3. 3If you carry out more than one activity, pick a NIC code for each and mark the main one. Udyam registration, for example, lets you list several codes.

  5. 5Not sure which fits? Share what you do and an IncorpX advisor will help you confirm the right code. Free, with no obligation.
