30 December 2011 Thank You sir, for your response
As per the Deputy commissioner of Salt lake charge way bill is not required on import of gold from outside india. I have not found any rule for the non-requirement of way bill on import of gold from outside india. As per deputy commissioner We can import gold from outside india without requiring way bill But we have to pay tax @1% after the sale of imported gold. Please guide me.

Thanks,
Regards,
Rajani Kant Dubey.

06 April 2012 You should have IE code for import of Gold and a registered dealer if it is so then no way bill is required and you have to pay the flat rate duty for import
