Let Lord forgive you for evading duty by wrongly showing purchases as gifts!

Hi, I bought leather gloves worth US $26.0 (Rs. 1600) from GEB. Do I need to pay any customs charges on it? If yes how much would it be?

Re: Customs duty in India

I must admit it is EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING trying to find any simple clear cut clarification upon EXACTLY what Customs duties are likely to be levied upon an iPad I'm trying to ship across to relatives in the north (H.P.) from the UK.

Regrettably the official Indian Gvt. Websites' explanation is absolutely tosh!!!

It merely regurgitates what the statutory position maybe and seems to possibly even avoid the simple case of merely explaining exactly what the cost & procedure in lay mans terms really is;

so that an individual could simply provide the predetermined payment, submit the relevant documentation and hey presto!!
( Well that's how the rest of us here operate anyway )

It's really is a great shame as a nation, what with this attitude to business - merely concerned with lining individuals' pockets, which ultimately restricts free trade and India suffers as a nation, on a massive scale, yet again left trailing behind the rest of the World despite it's highly educated population and available workforce. True shame, it really is...

RANT OVER.

Any genuine, honest suggestions as to how one may go about exporting a small package to India would be greatly appreciated. Thank you and Good Luck!!

Hello,

 

I wanted to buy a spare part for my mobile from India.

The item is available in hongkong with free shipping.

 

I wanted to know if this item attracts import duty by customs department in india.

If so, how much should I pay more? What all documents should I show them?

 

Please help me in this regard.

 

Thanks,

Sathya
