How it's calculated

For an assessable value of ₹100:

BCD = AV × 100% = ₹100.00
AIDC = BCD × 100% = ₹100.00
SWS = (BCD + AIDC) × 10% = ₹20.00(exemption notifications exist for this code; verify eligibility)
IGST = (AV + BCD + AIDC + SWS) × 5% = ₹16.00
Total Duty = BCD + AIDC + SWS + IGST = ₹236.00 (236%)

Notifications and exemptions can lower the effective rate for specific goods or FTA partner countries. Cross-check against the latest CBIC circulars before filing.
