| Dear Amit,
I understand that you want to bring a new LED from dubai and it is costing to 1799 AED (i.e. 1799 dirham or approx INR 23000).
As per the baggage rules, you are allowed to import articles from abroad without any payment of custom duty worth Rs. 25,000 if your age is above 10 years and your stay in abroad is more than 3 days (relevant to your case).
Thus, you can import the same duty free from dubai. Further, if you are bringing used LED then there is no restriction of amount. You are also requested to click the following link http://www.cbec.gov.in/travellers.htm., so that you can have more better understanding of the same.
Hope the same suffice

| Dear Amit,
The price in Indian marjet cannot be taken as the same is after suffering custom duty. Therefore, in you case you can bring the same along with you without payment of custom duty.
Hope the same suffice.

| If the assessee is over 10 years of age and stayed for more than 3 days in abroad other than Nepal. Bhutan, China, Myanmar and Pakistan, then Rs 35000 will be allowed as GFA and on the balance amount u have to pay @35% + Education Cess as custom duty. If he stayed for less than 3 days then Rs 15000 will be allowed as GAF.

| Dear Ashish,
Thanks for urs answer,
but there is confusion running in my Mind that as the cost of the TV is more than 25K in India so the Purchase price be the limit or the India price will be considered. |
