Hi,

As per Indian customs rule, baggage allowance has been raised to INR 35,000.00 per person. As per rule, this will be considered individually, i.e whether you are traveling alone or not, it will not have any effect on the duty. So depending upon the officers, you may or may not be required to pay the duty if you are traveling with your family. The duty is calculated as (VALUE OF GOODS in INR(INDIAN MARKET)- 35,000)*36.05%. ie. if you are taking a 50,000 goods value item, you will have to pay (50000-35000)*36.05% = 5407 rs as duty. This is the legal calculation. Also some officers do consider the invoice, so try to bargain with your invoice, if duty is imposed.

I think 42" wont be allowed in the Flight. You have to send it thru Cargo. In this case you wont get baggage allowance of INR25,000. Check with your flight first & then decide on the same. I have taken 42" but could send thru cargo only

you will be having an allowance of 25000 rupees each if you are flying with your family (2 X 25000 = 50000 INR)and for rest you have to pay 25 % tax ie if the LCD TV value is 75000 INR you have to pay 25% tax for 25000 INR ie around 6000 INR
