Mr. Vikas, a toy importer has understood the importance of manufacturing in India. He is backed up by the new govt. policies that motivate him to manufacture in India. As per the custom department any import made for the manufacturing under "Made in India", custom duty will be refunded upto 80%. Vikas decided not to import toy from China anymore, instead import raw material from Srilanka, for the manufacturing of toys in India. Under an agreement of Govt. Of India with Srilankan Govt., any import from Srilanka will receive tax benefits. Vikas ordered material Xendga & material Zenga from Srilanka.

Vikas requested to put the goods in custom port's warehouse. Vikas due to cash crunch was not in a position to pay custom duty and therefore did not file the bill of exchange (B.O.E.). Custom authorities charged a penalty of INR 15,000. Finally, after a month Vikas filled B.O.E. and paid custom duty of 20% on CIF value of the shipment. IGST was also applicable @ 18% on the combined value of CIF & custom duty paid. He spent further a sum of INR 12,500 to bring the imported goods to his factory.
