Taking LED TV from US to India   SV   03/16/2012 03:15 PM  

Hi,

I would like to take 46'' inches LED TV from US to India as we are going back for good soon. Any suggestions on this would be really helpful. Also let us know if any of your friends have taken TVs and through which airlines. Thanks.

Try shipping companies like universal relocations. You may need ntsc pal converter in india. Please check your tv model and make sure it works in india.

Can't we take TV along with us in flights?

Yes you can check in as a luggage. The weight and size depends on the airlines. For example 70 pounds max weight and tv box dimension (lenght+breadth+height) should not be more than 130 inches

We have plans to buy 46 inches TV, which will surely go beyond the inches specified. So, can we confirm with airlines beofre booking the tickets, so that we can get it paying extra amount?

The LED box size should be less than 130 inches. You can check with the airline that you intend to fly.

Hi

I tried same from Dubai.
The problem is not the airline, it is the customs in India.

The custom charges 30% of the actual cost of tv to the person who is carrying it. Now we hvae a minimum limit...which means if ur TV price is less than INR 70000/-in India then u can take it for free...if not then u will have to pay 30% of the charges of TV
No this 70000/- would be revised, so u might have to check with Indian Airport Customs.

Do you know anybodyelse in custom office? the best way is as per indian policy give some money to the officer or get some liquors from here and give to him.

I hope you would not get any problem.

You dont have to pay customs duty if you are returning for good. I think its called transfer of residence. The customs duty should be very less.

which means that the LED box size will exceed 130 inches for sure. But, many of them say that its possible , provided you pay extra amount for the extra dimensions.
