Anti-dumping, countervailing and safeguard duty

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 5.4% (S.No. 15A of 11/2021-Customs, as amended by 16/2026-Customs). (Platinum or palladium for use in making the goods 53/2022 names is excluded.) 3 more entries cover this code for named goods or on a condition, for example S.No. 15B of 11/2021-Customs (Silver or gold dore bar, content not exceeding 95%, on conditions: 4.35%; on conditions (dore bars)); not in the totals.
- AIDC is Nil where exemption from BCD is claimed under advance authorisation, an EOU scheme or the notifications 11/2021-Customs lists (S.Nos. 17A to 20, among them some trade agreements); the totals do not assume one.
- SWS is exempt under S.No. 54 of 11/2018-Customs, as amended by 44/2025-Customs (platinum or palladium for an end use under S.Nos. 232-233 of 45/2025 excluded).
- 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.

Duty drawback (All Industry Rates)
| Drawback item | Goods | Rate | Cap |
|---|---|---|---|
| 7110 | Platinum, unwrought or in semi- manufactured form, or in powder form | Nil | — |
Drawback items follow the 4-digit heading, not the 8-digit code: claim the one that describes your goods. Rates of notification 77/2023-Customs (N.T.) as amended, in force on 19 Oct 2026.
Export incentives (RoDTEP and RoSCTL)
- RoDTEP, Appendix 4R (exports from the domestic tariff area): Omitted from 01.05.2025 by 10/2025-26.
- RoDTEP, Appendix 4RE (exports under Advance Authorisation, EOU or SEZ): Omitted from 01.06.2025 by 10/2025-26.
What buyers pay abroad: import duty in the US, UK, EU and Australia for 7110 19, and China's below.
China: the same goods (7110 19)
China shares the first 6 digits with India and splits them into 10-digit codes of its own: 2 in force under 7110 19. Exporters see what China charges Indian goods; importers see the rebate and licences their Chinese supplier deals with.
| China code | Goods | Duty on Indian goods | MFN | Import VAT | Export rebate | Licences |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7110.19.10.00 | Platinum, in plates and sheets板、片状铂 | 0%MFN rate (no APTA concession on this line) | 0% | 13% | 0% | 4xy8 |

- 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.
