Import duty on computer accesories

[pcstore]

Hi Guys,

Anyone here with experience of importing computer hardware ? I have an opportunity to supply PC for a State owned co-operative in West Bengal. Plan to import small size PC(thin client) components to give client a better space and power utilization and also OEM 15" LCD (India prices are fire compare to Taiwan).

Now this is first time I am thinking of importing stuffs. If you have experience with importing / or if you know some one who has the knowledge please drop me a PM with details, I will contact. Do not worry, I will take few minutes of your valuable time only, wont do Telemarketing

If my own import goes well I plan to bring some stuffs for TE members as well.

Lets take sample of $5000 worth of goods need to import. how much will add up when it enter into India.

Thanks,

^^ Afaik if its a state owned co-operative tell them to import only, I think they will be exempted from duty...

If you're importing as a individual dealer, you'll need an import license.

Thanks to you both for your comment.

I want to do it by myself so that can make some profit. I dont care if it comes costly to them. regarding license I have already submitted documents to get one. Any other heart breaking experience ?
