What drives the rate
Importing bed linen of man-made fibres, printed (HS 63022200) from the UAE to India attracts a standard MFN basic customs duty of 10%. 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 ₹3,09,800 at the MFN rate to ₹1,80,000 with CEPA — a saving of ₹1,29,800 per shipment. Printed bed linen of man-made fibres carries a 10% MFN basic customs duty that CEPA eliminates, with 18% IGST. This is the volume line for hospitality and institutional buyers, where consignment sizes make the Certificate of Origin cost trivial against the saving. Origin is a change of tariff heading plus 40% value addition, so UAE weaving and making-up qualifies while cut-and-hem on imported cloth generally does not. Printed and non-printed versions split at the eight-digit level within heading 6302 at the same rate — declare the finish as it arrives. MFN and IGST are from ICEGATE; the preferential rate is India's CEPA Annex 2A schedule. 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.
