What taxes have to be paid for imported goods?

Hello Financial Experts and Friends,

I have some questions regarding the taxes imposed by the government on electronic goods.

 

What taxes have to be paid to the government for imported electronics goods?

And if you sell that electronics goods to end-user i.e consumer then what other taxes have to be paid?

Are the taxes applicable whose earning is below 1 lakh?

Is license need for this business?

 

Thank you!
