shiva: This is shivratan, need help in catering knowledge about importing a cellphone. I have got a gift, an iPhone from one of my friend from Australia. He has done courier stating it's a gifted item. Declared value for the same was 1000 AUD. Now at customs clearing, they have asked to pay approx INR 42k as duties and taxes. My question is actually the duties & taxes aggregate the same or its quite inflated. Since duties are approx 20%.
