MRP Not Required for Importing Engineering Materials; Customs Value Based on Transaction Price, Not 230% Rumor A discussion on the customs value calculation for importing engineering materials through trading mode raised questions about the necessity of declaring the Maximum Retail Price (MRP). It was clarified that MRP labeling is required only for retail sales, and if not applicable, customs will use the transaction price to determine the assessable value.
