As per the provisions of Rule 3 of Baggage rules ,1998 which speaks on General Free Allowance ;
'POOLING of Free Allowance IS NOT PERMISSIBLE' of one passenger with another passenger.

For instance if , Mr.X and Mrs. X come to India from USA after a stay of more than 3 days
with a Camera worth Rs. 50,000 and Personal Computer worth Rs.1,00,000 .
Will the General Free Allowance available to them be
A) 35,000 allowable as allowance to any one person only , i.e., Mr.X or Mrs.X
or B) 35,000 allowable as allownace to both persons , i.e. Mr.X and Mrs. X ( So total 70,000)
Plz reply A) , B) or any OTHER ANS. if any, at the earliest
( Note :A similar sum is given along with the provisions on Page 14.2 & 14.3 of the IDT Book by Yogendra Bangar -- Please refer and help if possible)
