I WANT TO IMPORT SAMSUNG GALAXY TAB FROM USA TO INDIA . IT IS WORTH RS.9800(180$) SO SHALL IT BE EXEMPT FROM CUSTOM DUTY IF I BRING AS A GIFT ??? PLZ SHOW ME THE REASON ON HOW CAN I BENIFIT FOR NOT PAYING CUSTOM DUTY ???

THE INDIAN CUSTOMS ACT DOES NOT EXEMPT CUSTOMS DUTY ON GIFT, YOU NEED TO PAY APPLICABLE CUSTOMS DUTY.
HOPE THE TAB IS WITH GSM/CDMA CONNECTIVITY FACILITY, IF SO IT WILL ATTRACT THE SAME DUTY AS OTHER GSM PHONES, THAT IS 2% ON MRP. MRP WILL BE ASSERTAINED AT THE RATE AT WHICH IT IS NORMALLY SOLD IN INDIA.
IF THE SAME IS WITHOUT GSM / CDMA CONNECTIVITY, THEN IT WILL ATTRACT DUTY ON LAPTOP/PC.
