I PHONE ATTRACT 2% DUTY ON MRP ( LESS ABATEMENT 35%) , THAT IS 1% NCCD AND 1% CVD.
MRP WILL BE ASSERTAINED BASED ON THE NORMAL TRADE PRICE IN INDIA FOR SAME MODEL.
EXAMPLE:- IF THE MRP IS RS.40000, THEN 2% WILL BE CHARGED ON RS 26000/- , WILL BE RS 520/-
YOU DO NOT NEED TO SUBMIT ANY DOCUMENTS TO COURIER COMPANY, THEY WILL CLEAR THE GOODS THEMSELVES AND WILL DELIVER AT YOUR PLACE, IF DESPATCHED ON( DDP) DELIVERY DUTY PAID TERMS , THEN YOU NEED NOT HAVE TO PAY ANY DUTY, IF NOT, YOU CAN CHECK THE DUTY PAYMENT CHALLANS AND PAY THE SAME TO COURIER COMPANY.
