Case: Meenakshi Textiles Ltd imports fabric. The BCD is 10% on assessable value of Rs 50,00,000. Social Welfare Surcharge (SWS) applies at 10% of BCD. IGST is 12% under the Customs Tariff Act, section 3(7). Ignoring other duties, what is the IGST payable?

IGST is Rs 6,66,000. It is charged at 12% on assessable value plus BCD plus Social Welfare Surcharge, that is on Rs 55,50,000.

  1. ARs 6,00,000
  2. BRs 6,60,000
  3. CRs 6,66,000
  4. DRs 6,72,000Correct

Explanation

BCD = 5,00,000. SWS = 10% of BCD = 50,000. Value for IGST = 50,00,000 + 5,00,000 + 50,000 = 55,50,000. IGST at 12% = 6,66,000. Hence the correct figure is 6,66,000 and option index 2 holds it.
