What drives the rate
Importing ski suits, woven (HS 62112000) from the UAE to India attracts a 20% MFN basic customs duty, and the India–UAE CEPA preferential rate is 0%. Woven ski suits are taken to zero by CEPA, with 18% IGST. The classification rule is unusually specific and worth reading before the invoice is drawn: a ski suit is a set of two or three pieces intended for skiing — typically a jacket with trousers or bib-and-brace — and it must be presented together to be classified here. Ship the jacket alone and it is assessed as an anorak at a different code with its own origin file. Origin is a change of tariff heading plus 40% value addition, and as with skis and bindings the UAE distributes European winter-sports equipment rather than making it, so re-exported suits cannot claim the preference however the invoice is raised. For equipment travelling temporarily to an event, an ATA carnet avoids duty and IGST altogether and is the cleaner route. India's schedule (Annex 2A, modality TEI) took this line to zero in the agreement's first year, 2022, so the preference is fully phased in and nothing further changes. The preference is worth 22% of assessable value on every consignment — the 20-point basic-duty gap plus the 10% Social Welfare Surcharge that rides on it — so it scales with shipment size rather than with effort, and the Certificate of Origin costs the same either way. Social Welfare Surcharge adds 10% on the basic duty, not on the goods, and IGST of 18% then applies to the CIF + BCD + SWS total — IGST is recoverable as input tax credit, so the durable benefit is the basic duty alone. Confirm the live rate on ICEGATE before filing; ₹10,00,000 is only the worked example above.
