Customs on courier from US

I have received a VR headset ( approx 1 kg in weight) from facebook and is delivered at my friend's place in US as they don't deliver it to India. Due to covid my friend cannot come to India.
So If he sends the headset by courier to India, whether customs would pe charged on it and how much?
Also, anyone has the idea what would be the courier charges?

In 2026, all courier shipments from the US to India are subject to customs duty, typically totaling around 30-31% of the item's total cost (including shipping and insurance). You will be required to provide KYC documents to the courier company to clear the package, and the duty must be paid before delivery. There is no longer a functional duty-free allowance for these types of courier imports.
