How this estimate works

CIF is converted FOB plus freight and insurance. Assessable value adds only the valuation additions you enter; no blanket 1% landing uplift is applied. Duty and surcharge use your entered rates. Cash outlay includes IGST; net cost subtracts only the eligible recovery you specify.

Valuation-only additions do not automatically add to cash expense. Enter actual additional costs under local costs. The model does not cover every additional duty, exemption, cess or tariff case.

Read the method, source and limitations. Confirm HSN, origin, customs exchange rate and tax eligibility before committing to a price.
