How do I price an export shipment from India?
Start with your cost to FOB: ex-factory cost, packing, inland freight, port and documentation. Add the incentives that apply to your product (such as RoDTEP and duty drawback) as a percentage of FOB value, then solve for the price that leaves your target margin. For CFR or CIF quotes add main freight and insurance. The calculator on this page does it.
How are RoDTEP and drawback treated in the price?
As income on the FOB value. The calculator solves for the FOB price at which your profit, after those incentives, equals your target margin. If an incentive isn't paid or its rate falls, your margin falls by that amount, so confirm the current rates before you quote.
Which incentive rates should I enter?
The current rates for your product's HSN code from the relevant notifications, and only for schemes you are eligible for. Whether RoDTEP and drawback can both be claimed depends on the product and scheme conditions, so check before including both.
What is the difference between FOB, CFR and CIF?
FOB means the price covers the goods loaded on the ship at the Indian port. CFR adds the freight to the destination port. CIF adds freight and insurance. The calculator adds your main freight and insurance for CFR and CIF quotes.
Is this an official quote or incentive calculation?
No. It is a planning estimate based on the figures you enter. Incentives are claimed and credited through the Shipping Bill process, and your customs house agent can confirm eligibility and amounts.
