Machinery, Plant & Project Consignments

Capital equipment imports carry their own rulebook — from Project Imports assessment under Heading 9801 to EPCG duty savings, second-hand machinery certification and over-dimensional cargo logistics. We manage the full chain for manufacturers, EPC contractors and project consultants.

Duty Structures That Save Real Money

RouteWhat It OffersFit For
Project Imports (9801)Single concessional assessment for an entire project’s equipmentPlant setup, substantial expansions — registered contracts
EPCGConcessional/nil duty against export obligationsExporters importing production or testing equipment
Exemption notificationsNil/concessional BCD for specified machineryCategory-specific — classification unlocks it

Second-Hand Machinery

  • Chartered Engineer certificate of value and residual life — mandatory
  • Import policy check: most used capital goods are freely importable; exceptions exist
  • Valuation basis documentation to pre-empt assessment disputes

Physical Logistics

  • ODC and break-bulk handling — flat racks, open tops, heavy-lift coordination
  • Port equipment and transport permissions for over-dimensional moves
  • Project cargo surveys and route studies for oversized consignments
  • Site delivery sequencing aligned to erection schedules

One Team, Contract to Commissioning

We combine the customs strategy (classification, Project Imports registration, EPCG licences) with the physical execution (freight, ODC handling, site delivery) — one accountable partner for the entire import scope of your project.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What qualifies for Project Imports under Heading 9801?
Goods imported for initial setup or substantial expansion of specified projects — industrial plants, power projects and others — against a registered contract. The whole equipment scope assesses at a single concessional rate.
Can we import used machinery into India?
Generally yes — most second-hand capital goods are freely importable with a Chartered Engineer certificate stating value and residual life. Certain categories carry restrictions, which we confirm before purchase.
Do you physically handle over-dimensional cargo?
Yes — flat-rack/break-bulk booking, port heavy-lift coordination, transport permissions and route planning through to site delivery.
