OFF TOPIC but it needs to be said.
If you calculate the cost of the product. I only paid Rs. 25500/- per device
but that is not all that we need to pay for.
Costs involved
1. Custom Duty which was 7.5% Base Duty (varies as per product), 10% SW Surcharge, and 18% IGST, that is 35% total duty which would be a total of 8925/- Good thing we don't declare values at full price but still we cannot declare a 25K product as 5K, We assume 60% value. So the total duty per product is Rs. 5.5K approx
2. Freight & Insurance - usually Rs. 500 per Kg for Air. each product weighs 5Kg so that's 2500 bucks each.
4. Then comes the most important charge of all, Customs clearance, which is the money paid to the clearance officer, based on his mood of the day. sometimes it's less, sometimes it's more. this time they were very generous so it was only around Rs. 500 per item.

So all in all, I am looking at a product cost of Rs. 34000/- that leaves me 1000 bucks in profits from this sale but this pricing is only on TE and for TE. On my website, it will go on sale for Rs. 44999/-

Forgot to update: The Seagate Business NAS is up and running at my parents'. It has some quirks (expected before the purchase) but overall it works. I expect it to last a few years given its business-grade hardware. Either way thanks Aasim for a wonderful find.

Leaving feedback, do share it back :)

Note: Seagate Nas 4 Pro is a decent bit of kit if someone is looking for a NAS. It has an x86_64 CPU, not your usual ARM sh*t.
