I am thinking of getting one once and for all. If you have import lisence then its damn easy to get your stuff cleared and that too fast and if you have hardware import lisence then you can basically order anything, show it as personal import and you dont have to pay extra duties like 16% foreign expense duty ( this is the main reason for high cost of components in India. In additiont o basic duty this additional 16% is a real killer).
Now there is no basic duty on components like Mobo and processor from April 1st. This is what i am thinking of. And Import lisence fee is very nominal.
