Customs Tariff of India [As amended by Finance Act 2026 and updated till 15-5-2026]

Dear Sir/Ma’am,
We are pleased to announce the release of the above mentioned title.
R.K. Jain’s Customs Tariff of India is the authoritative, single-source compilation of the law, rates and exemptions governing the import and export of goods
into and out of India. Across two volumes, it brings together the complete Customs Tariff Act 1975, the full Import Tariff (First Schedule) and Export Tariff
(Second Schedule), the IGST levy on imports, and every parallel impost that attaches at the border—cesses, surcharges, additional and special duties, and
the trade-remedy duties (anti-dumping, countervailing and safeguard). The defining strength of the work is integration: against each tariff heading, the
reader finds not only the statutory rate but the effective rate after exemptions, the applicable trade-remedy duties, and the relevant departmental
clarifications and case law, so that landed-cost and duty-liability questions can be settled within a single Chapter.
The Present Publication is the 85th Edition | 2026-27, amended by Finance Act 2026 and updated till 15th May 2026. This book is edited by Centax’s
