Assessable Value (CIF) Formula

Customs levies duty on Assessable Value = FOB + 20% Freight + 1.125% Insurance. Landing charges are ₹0.

🛡️

SWS (Social Welfare Surcharge)

SWS is always calculated as 10% of BCD amount (not of the entire invoice value).

💳

IGST Base & 100% ITC

IGST is calculated on (CIF + BCD + SWS). GST registered businesses can claim 100% of IGST back as input tax credit.

📄

Out of Charge (OOC) Gatepass

Once duty is electronically paid on ICEGATE, Customs issues OOC for direct handover to domestic logistics.
