Landed-cost calculator
Direction and basis
Goal: the true cost of landing these goods in India, separating the duty burden that never comes back from the tax you recover.
Used for the per-unit view and for capped incentive entitlements.

Both figures arrive from the confirmed line and stay editable. Edit one and TENAR withdraws its citation rather than pretending the notification still supports your number.
Charged on BCD, not on the assessable value.
Notified goods only.
Manual entry — the backend dossier has no cess field.
Origin-specific. Manual entry.
Manual entry.
Notified fortnightly rate — market FX is not the assessment rate.
Cost build-up
Eight rows, entered per shipment. GST is captured on each line and kept outside FOB and CIF: a registered exporter recovers it as input credit, so folding it in would overstate the quote.
EXW plus inland, clearance, handling and bank charges. Freight and insurance sit above FOB, on CFR and CIF. Input GST tracked separately: 18.10.
Advanced — destination legs
DAP and DPU stay blank until these are supplied; TENAR shows an em dash rather than inventing a number.
The printed report keeps every formula string and citation URL.

Cost waterfall
EXW → FOB → CFR → CIF → +BCD → +SWS/AIDC → +IGST → DDP, with the arithmetic printed.
- EXW500.00
EXW = ex-works goods value = 500.00
- FOB628.00
FOB = EXW 500.00 + inland, clearance, handling, bank 128.00 = 628.00
line GST 18.10 excluded — refundable input credit
- CFR748.00
CFR = FOB 628.00 + freight 120.00 = 748.00
- CIF754.00
CIF = CFR 748.00 + insurance 6.00 = 754.00
- Assessable value754.00
AV = CIF 754.00 × CBIC rate 1 = 754.00
- + BCD829.40
BCD = AV 754.00 × 10% = 75.40
running = 829.40
- + SWS / AIDC836.94
AIDC = AV 754.00 × 0% = 0.00
SWS = (BCD 75.40 + ADD 0.00 + CVD 0.00) × 10% = 7.54
running = 836.94
- + IGST987.59
IGST base = AV + BCD + AIDC + SWS + ADD + CVD = 836.94
IGST = 836.94 × 18% = 150.65
cess = 836.94 × 0% = 0.00
- DDP987.59
duty and tax = 233.59 (30.9801% of CIF)
DDP = CIF 754.00 + duty and tax 233.59 = 987.59
Line GST across the build-up: 18.10 — tracked, refundable, and deliberately outside FOB and CIF.
