08 November 2009 Import duty liable to pay on imported goods as per indian custome tariff act. No, it is not freight!

Basic Duty:
This is the basic duty levied under the Customs Act. The rate varies for different items from 5% to 40%.

Additional Duty (Countervailing Duty) (CVD):
This additional duty is levied under section 3 (1) of the Custom Tariff Act and is equal to excise duty levied on a like product manufactured or produced in India. If a like product is not manufactured or produced in India, the excise duty that would be leviable on that product had it been manufactured or produced in India is the duty payable. If the product is leviable at different rates, the highest rate among those rates is the rate applicable. Such duty is leviable on the value of goods plus basic custom duty payable. eg. If the customs value of goods is Rs. 5000 and rate of basic customs duty is 10% and excise duty on similar goods produced in India is 20%, CVD will be Rs.1100/-.


Special Additional Duty is duty levied under Section 3(5) if the CTA 1975. This is levy in order counter balance various internal taxes like Sales Tax, VAT, etc
