Import dutyOK
- About ₹27,730 duty on every ₹1,00,000 of import value (CIF).
- No tariff line names this chemical, so we worked out its likely heading from its structure: 2916, unsaturated acyclic and cyclic monocarboxylic acids and their derivatives (carboxylic acid group).
- All lines under heading 2916 pay basic customs duty 7.5%; with social welfare surcharge and IGST 18% that makes about 27.73%.
- No 8-digit line under heading 2916 names it, so it falls under one of its "Other" lines: 2916 12 90 (Esters of acrylic acid › Other); 2916 15 90 (Oleic, linoleic or linolenic acids, their salts and esters › Other); 2916 19 90 (Other › Other); 2916 20 90 (Cyclanic, cyclenic or cycloterpenic monocarboxylic acids their anhydrides, halid); 2916 31 90 (Benzoic acid, its salts and esters › Other); and 1 more. The other 30 lines are for named chemicals; which "Other" line applies depends on the exact structure.
