referred by many job aspirants.
The question appears to mean whether Custom Duty is charged
on the freight component in the exporter's invoice.

Yes, while assessing the value of imported goods, Value of
goods, Freight, Insurance, etc. will be added and this value
is called Assessable Value. Invoice value in foreign
currency will be converted to the currency of the importing
country at the prevailing exchange rate as per the
applicable law and assessed to Import Duty (Inclusive of all
components, such as Basic duty, Additional duty, Surcharge,
Cess, etc)

The rate of import duties and CVD differ for different
class/type of goods and is as per the Customs Tariff &
Central Excise Tariff valid at the time of import. These
will be based on HSN mentioned in the concerned Tariff with
Chapter & Sub-Chapter headings. To know more, refer Customs,
Central Excise or Import-Export book or manual.
