India Revises Customs Duty: 50% on Peas, 20% on Item 37 Under Notification 50/2017-Customs, Section 20A.
The Government of India has amended Notification No. 50/2017-Customs regarding the customs duty on imports of peas (Pisum sativum). The amendment specifies that pulses, except peas and tur, are covered under a different entry. A new entry, 20A, has been added for peas with a 50% customs duty rate. Additionally, the duty rate for another item listed under serial number 37 has been changed to 20%. These changes are made under the powers granted by the Customs Act, 1962, and are deemed necessary in the public interest.
