Export and import calculators

Export price: from factory to the buyer’s port

Enter your own costs for one shipment. The calculator adds them up to EXW, FOB and CIF, then shows the price per unit in the buyer’s currency.

Arithmetic only — not a quotation. GST is not added: exports under LUT are zero-rated. Export incentives (RoDTEP, drawback) are not included; check the scheme pages.

Freight calculator

Enter your carton size and weight and your forwarder’s quote — see how many containers you need and what freight adds to each unit. We do not quote rates: the rate comes from your quote.

Arithmetic only. Container inside sizes are ISO standard; payloads are the figures carriers usually quote — confirm with your line. Pallets reduce the space. Air: volumetric weight = L×W×H (cm) ÷ 6000.

Best route

Pick your state, the buyer’s country and the kind of goods — see the route most exporters use. Confirm time and freight with your forwarder.

1. RoadYour unit (Uttar Pradesh)

   Stuff the container at your unit under self-sealing, or take the goods to a CFS/ICD.

2. ICDICD Dadri

   Customs is cleared inland here; the container goes to the port by rail — no customs queue at the port.

3. Sea portMundra Port

   The west coast has the most direct services to the Gulf, Europe, Africa and the Americas.

4. Arrival portUnited Arab Emirates — Jebel Ali (Dubai)

   Ask your forwarder for transit time and any transhipment; a direct service costs more but is faster.

Landed cost of an import

Take the duty rates for your HS code from the CBIC customs tariff and enter them here. The calculator follows the order customs uses: assessable value → basic duty → social welfare surcharge → IGST.

Arithmetic only — not a duty assessment. The bill of entry on ICEGATE is final. Check exemptions and FTA rates in the tariff notification.
