If one is sending some item from any state (s.a. Maharashtra - Mumbai city) to Karnataka (Bangalore city), such as, for gifting purpose or even personal use, does one still need to fill eSugam ? The courier companies are asking for it, but it seems pretty counter intuitive. Is there any alternative ?

Have found the following text:

Personal shipments consigned to individuals for own consumption against declaration /invoice with complete address/ contact of consignee for speedy clearance.

at this website: https://www.zepo.in/blog/2014/03/20/mystery-behind-shipping-forms-busted/

However, I can find no official source of this information. Also, what is the format of "Declaration" ? Is "invoice" actually required to be provide in addition, or is it an option ?

thanks,

Jay
