Thanks for this interesting discussion wonderboy745. Got some of my doubts cleared
Wonderboy745 order from bitmain. Was charged 3200 rupess customs. Shipped by dhl. Dont even think about post.
Adil what was the actual price of the miner and how much did you pay in total?
which miner was it?
and what is the total percentage of customs duty on bitcoin miners?
Messaged you my number,text on whatsapp or email...
.998 BTC, 3200 rupees customs.
antminer s1
no idea about percentage, but it varies on a lot of things.

where we need to ask for custom if didnt get the item ( from canada guy via ebay i purchased )
I purchased video cassettes from usa ,It is 3 years before its worth is around 30000 including shipping.
If you want to get away from custom charges then use the govt. posts. Which works in association with Indian Post, and if you declare something of very low cost (paper weight in my case) you'll be able to get away from it. But this comes with a risk item getting lost.( Although mine thankfully did not) but there is a risk. And there is time delay as well. If you have insurance on the item its worth while doing this.
You won't believe i was able to get away with the custom cost from about 30-35 packages with only 4 packages getting caught.

No don't do this. If it comes through Indian postal service they will keep the item in customs office. There is a chance to damage of the item. Private couriers deliver and you have to pay customs fee to them. One time i paid 6000 customs to them. But before that i called them informed i am ready to pay the customs fee.
But i have seen how the treat the package when they open it. I was sitting in the custom room to collect my package , one package they opened was a iMac. And the way they handled it, made me sympathize for the guy. They were simply playing with a 1 Lakh computer.
Thats my experience, i have used both the govt, posts and the private ones. And if you are able to take the risk then Govt. post should be much cheaper and better.
Thank You for the suggestion... 
EMS postal service works?
what approx time frame am i looking at if i order via govt post?
have you imported electronic circuits or any electronic devices the same way?
time frame was around 10 days to 3 weeks. Depending on there mood. And no i haven't imported electronic devices.
Seems like hyd guys did not understand what they saw and they just gave it to you to handle !
hyd was first experience, so products selection was, above average... it was directly delivered with no fuss et all
then for mumbai i did go extreme, i was called to some office, i was fuckin embarrassed
now i know a little better, all the shit that we end up IMAGINING up there in our head
doesn't happen in the real world most of the times
anyway, its been a long time, i was not able to get the parcel, i think i did get a refund
plus few invaluable lessons
if customs team changes based on receivers city... then the variables (risk reward) also change accordingly, right?
Custom offers change everyday or every couple of days. Sometimes we need to wait 3-4 days for a specific custom offers to be able to deal with him.i'm now in my early thirties... in my early twenties, i ordered variety of sex toys from adameve.com
as far as i can remember, hyd parcel was fine but my mumbai parcel was never given to me... it was just too much for them to handle what they saw, lol

My suggestion would be to use fedex but have the seller put reasonable selling price on invoice. For about 200 USD of declared value, customs is about 3600 INR. For this much INR for customs, fedex will clear the customs themselves and get the parcel to your home - you can pay to fedex at this time and get the parcel. I would say this would be both faster and safer if you can do it this way. What the miner earns in first 10 days is about 25% of what it will actually earn in its life time in terms of bitcoins.

kick a** feedback
thank you
Also, if you are caught then its better to deal yourself with the custom agent. You'll be able to make a deal 
with him.
But there is no way you can do any of these things with DHL or Fedex. They have there own collecting agent and will take the custom fees of about 26- 28% . 4% more if its hampering Indian manufacture things.
