Circular no. 14/2022 dated August 18th, 2022

The CBIC has earlier issued notification to prescribe concessional rate of basic customs duty (BCD) at 10% on Display Assembly of mobile phones and Nil BCD on import of inputs or parts for manufacture of Display Assembly. However, various instances of mis-declaration have been reported and the clarification was sought by industry.

Now, the CBIC has issued circular to clarify that 10% BCD shall be levied on import of display assembly of mobile phones along with back support frame of metal or plastic. However, the BCD at rate of 15% shall be levied if the sim tray, battery compartment, fingerprint or any other item is imported with display assembly.
