Import dutyOK

About 27.73% of the import value (estimate)
  • 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: 2910, epoxides, epoxyalcohols, epoxyphenols and epoxyethers (epoxide ring).
  • 5 of 6 lines under heading 2910 pay basic customs duty 7.5%; with social welfare surcharge and IGST 18% that makes about 27.73%.
  • No 8-digit line under heading 2910 names it, so it falls under one of its "Other" lines: 2910 90 00 (Other). The other 5 lines are for named chemicals; which "Other" line applies depends on the exact structure.
  • Confirm the exact 8-digit code with your customs broker before you import.
