Valuation related to import

[MK Singh]

My query is one of the importer imported goods i.e automated data processing machine with assessable value is ₹ 1 Cr and he paid Zero BCD and 18 % IGST on the goods. But on the packing list the MRP is written as 2.1 Cr during the import.

My question is whether there is any violation of Customs Valuation Rule in this transaction?

Whether there is any rule differentiating between transaction value and MRP?

The imported goods to ready to use goods. Please guide.

Under Customs, where the transaction is not between related parties or even if related and the price has not been influenced, the transaction value can be adopted.

So IGST need not be paid on MRP

Sir

If the Maximum Retail Price is wrongly affixed on the retail packaging and goods are still under customs control, you may request customs to allow you to relabel the packages with the correct MRP in the customs bonded warehouse.
