What drives the rate
Importing men's synthetic-fibre overcoats, knitted (HS 61013010) from the UAE to India attracts a standard MFN basic customs duty of 20%. Under the India–UAE CEPA the preferential basic customs duty is 0%. On a sample assessable value of ₹10,00,000, total duty falls from ₹4,39,600 at the MFN rate to ₹1,80,000 with CEPA — a saving of ₹2,59,600 per shipment. Men's knitted overcoats of synthetic fibres carry a 20% MFN basic customs duty, eliminated to 0% under CEPA, with 18% IGST. Fibre content splits this heading into separate eight-digit lines at the same rate, so the risk is a mismatched Certificate of Origin rather than a duty shortfall — but a mismatch is enough for the preference to be denied at assessment. Origin needs a change of tariff heading plus 40% value addition, which for garments effectively pushes the test back to where the fabric was knitted. MFN and IGST are from ICEGATE; some garment lines also carry an alternate per-piece minimum duty, so confirm the current tariff entry before filing. Social Welfare Surcharge adds 10% on the basic duty and 18% IGST applies on top — though IGST is recoverable as input tax credit, so the lasting benefit is the basic-duty saving.
