Effective import duty stack for HSN 38089191, computed on an assessable value of ₹100.
Component	Rate	Amount / ₹100
BCD Basic Customs Duty — the headline tariff rate from the First Schedule.	10%	₹10.00
AIDC Agriculture Infrastructure & Development Cess — calculated on BCD.	10%	₹1.00
SWS Social Welfare Surcharge — calculated on (BCD + AIDC).	10%	₹1.10
IGST Integrated Goods and Services Tax — on (CIF + BCD + AIDC + SWS). Notif. 045/2025-I229	18%	₹20.18
Total Duty	32.28%	≈ ₹32.28 / ₹100 CIF

How it's calculated

For an assessable value of ₹100:

BCD = AV × 10% = ₹10.00
AIDC = BCD × 10% = ₹1.00
SWS = (BCD + AIDC) × 10% = ₹1.10(exemption notifications exist for this code; verify eligibility)
IGST = (AV + BCD + AIDC + SWS) × 18% = ₹20.18
Total Duty = BCD + AIDC + SWS + IGST = ₹32.28 (32.28%)

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