12 November 2010 The company is going to import Pericoli Fans from Italy. For import these fans the custom duty will be charged. To minimise the custom duty can we break the invoice amount into material and consultancy charges. IF yes, whether TDS provisions u/s 195 will attract for consultancy charges?

Also let me know the information regarding:
1. Documents required for import the said fans
2. at what rate custome duty will be charged for import of Pericoli fans.
