Use AJG' FTA Savings Estimator tool at tools/fta-savings-estimator.php. Enter: (1) HS code of your product, (2) country of export (India), (3) country of import, (4) CIF value of shipment. The tool calculates: current MFN duty, FTA preferential duty, savings per shipment, annual savings at your projected volume, and which FTA applies.
What is the EPCG scheme?
Export Promotion Capital Goods (EPCG) scheme allows Indian exporters to import capital goods (machinery, equipment) at 0% customs duty, subject to an export obligation of 6x the CIF value of the imported capital goods over 6 years. Managed by DGFT. Ideal for Indian manufacturers investing in EU-standard machinery to improve export product quality.

Always use an experienced customs house agent to prepare documents.
