HS 8473

Import Duty on Computer Parts in India (2026): 0%–8.25% + IGST

Parts and accessories for computers under HS heading 8473 enjoy low customs duty in India - 0% on most lines with a few at up to 8.25% - thanks to the IT Agreement. The catch for PC builders: graphics cards, CPUs, RAM and SSDs are classified under 8471/8542/8523 families with their own mostly 0% rates, so the real cost of importing PC parts is IGST at 18%.

What INR 70,000 of computer parts costs to land in India

Step by step, using the representative rate for this category (0% duty on HS 84731000, 18% IGST). Your exact rate depends on the precise HS code in the table above.

Computer Parts (goods value): INR 70,000
International freight (illustrative, 10% of goods): INR 7,000
Assessable value (CIF = goods + freight): INR 77,000
Customs duty (0% of CIF, HS 84731000): INR 0
IGST (18% of CIF + duty): INR 13,860
Estimated landed cost: INR 90,860

Note for businesses: the IGST portion (INR 13,860 here) is creditable as input tax credit if you are GST-registered; the customs duty portion is not. Freight is illustrative - use the calculator for a quote with real shipping on your actual item.

Computer Parts import questions, answered

What is the import duty on a graphics card shipped to India?+

GPUs and most PC components attract 0% basic customs duty; the payable tax is 18% IGST on the CIF value. A USD 1,000 RTX card therefore lands at roughly 20-22% over its US price once freight and IGST are included - often still well under Indian street prices during shortages.

Why do imported PC parts still cost more than 18% extra?+

CIF includes freight, and heavy items like PSUs and cases carry meaningful shipping cost. Add courier handling and the effective premium runs 20-30%. Light, high-value parts (CPUs, SSDs, RAM) import most efficiently.

Is warranty valid on imported components?+

Brand-dependent: Corsair, Logitech and Samsung storage generally honour international warranty in India; GPU board partners usually do not. Weigh the saving against RMA shipping costs back to the seller region for expensive cards.

Can I import a fully built PC instead of parts?+

Yes - complete desktops classify under 8471 at 0% duty with 18% IGST, but freight on a full tower is punishing and transit damage risk is real. Importing parts and building locally is almost always cheaper and safer.
