Hey Anuj,

Mind sharing the breakdown of the amount paid?
I am also from India and looking to buy, but $112 in import duties is too much. Sad 

From what I have found on the internet, the custom duty + DHL charges in India should be around Rs 3678 ($ 52) using following breakdown:

CIF = Cost (199 $) + insurance + freight (39 $) = 238 $ * 71.38 = Rs 16988
Landing Charges = 1% of CIF  = Rs 170
Total = 16988 + 170 = Rs 17158
Basic Customs Duty on Laptops = 0% of (CIF+LC)
IGST - 18% of (0+17158) = ₹3088
DHL Disimbursement fee = Rs 500
DHL IGST = Rs 90


Total = Rs 3678 ($ 52)

Hi Aaditya,

Sorry, just saw this. Ya, I did not understand the bill either. Here's the breakdown

Customs Duty = Rs. 1747.34
IGST = Rs. 5430.72
S W Surcharge = Rs 174.73
DHL Disbursement fee = Rs. 500
IGST for ^ (18%) = Rs. 90
Total = Rs. 7942.79

They don't give details about how IGST was calculated.

The same thing happened to me last year. I ordered the Rockpro 64 and a bunch of other stuff. My total was $237 + $30 (shipping, Aramex). Aramex actually gave me the customs bill then, don't remember where I put it. But they charged me around Rs. 10400 (about $150) or something, and the bill was confusing as hell.
