13 February 2015 One of my friend wants to import a second hand machinery from UAE.The machine is about 10 years old and its original bill is also not traceable. He is getting the machinery free of cost. I want to know as to how will the machine be valued to calculate customs duty and if possible please let me know about the required documents ?
