Clearance by other agencies

CBIC's Compliance Information Portal lists no other agency's clearance for imports of this item.

"*IS14900:2018 is applicable on Transparent Float Glass for specification. Refer Transparent Float Glass (Quality Control) Order 2021{Refer S.O.1928(E)DT 17-05-2021}.Goods shall conform to the Indian Standard and shall bear the standard mark under a licence from the bureau as per Scheme I of Schedule II of BIS (Conformity Assessment) Regulations 2018*As per DGFT Notf 29/26-27 dt 18-08-26 the Import Policy and Policy Condition of Clear Float Glass (4 mm¿12 mm) falling under ITC (HS) Codes 70051090 and 70052990, is revised from Free to Restricted. However, import shall be Free if CIF value is Rs.34,000 and above per MT. The above restriction is not applicable for imports by Advance Authorisation holders, Export Oriented Units (EOUs) and units in the SEZ subject to the condition that the imported inputs under the above ITC (HS) Codes are not sold into Domestic Tariff Area (DTA). The Minimum Import Price (MIP) condition shall remain applicable for a period of one year from the date of publication of this Notification*"

From Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC), Compliance Information Portal.

Import policy (DGFT ITC(HS))

  • Restricted under DGFT 29/2026-27 of 18 Aug 2026.
  • Condition: However, import is "Free" where the CIF value is ₹34,000 and above per MT.
Notes on these rates
  • BCD is the statutory tariff rate from a one-time snapshot of the Indian Trade Portal. Exemption notifications (such as 45/2025-Customs) and tariff changes made after the snapshot, including the Finance Act 2026 changes from 1 May 2026, are not applied.
  • IGST comes from our archived GST table, which still has the 12% and 28% slabs, so it may pre-date the GST rate changes of 22 September 2025. Check the current rate.
  • AIDC, Health Cess and the SWS exemptions are read from notifications 11/2021-Customs, 08/2020-Customs and 11/2018-Customs as amended (to 16/2026-Customs), and the notifications that lower AIDC for a while. SWS is 10% of BCD, AIDC and Health Cess together (Finance Act 2018, s.110), never of anti-dumping, countervailing or safeguard duty or IGST.
  • AIDC is Nil (S.No. 17 of 11/2021-Customs, which exempts all goods it does not name).
  • Not included: GST compensation cess, anti-dumping, countervailing and safeguard duties, and exemptions or concessions such as end-use, EOU/SEZ or project imports.
  • This does not check whether the import is allowed (DGFT import policy, licences, quality-control orders). The HS code explorer shows the import policy.
  • This is an estimate, not an assessment. Confirm the duty with your customs broker or ICEGATE's duty calculator before you price a deal.

IGST on imports is the GST rate. Rates changed on 22 September 2025.

What buyers pay abroad: import duty in the US, UK, EU and Australia for 7005 29, and China's below.

China: the same goods (7005 29)

China shares the first 6 digits with India and splits them into 10-digit codes of its own: 3 in force under 7005 29. Exporters see what China charges Indian goods; importers see the rebate and licences their Chinese supplier deals with.

  • India is a member of the Asia-Pacific Trade Agreement (APTA). With an APTA certificate of origin, Indian goods pay China's APTA rate where the line has one; China applies the lower of that and its provisional rate.
  • The export VAT rebate is what China refunds its own exporters. When China cuts it, Chinese export prices tend to rise.
