The computation of duty required to be paid would be as follows:-

Basic customs duty =Rs. 30/-

Value for the purpose of special additional duty =Rs. 100/- + Rs. 30 + Rs. 20.80 = Rs. 150.80

Special additional duty = 4% of Rs. 150.80 = Rs. 6.032

Total duty payable but for this exemption =Rs. 30 + Rs. 20.80 + Rs. 6.032 = Rs. 56.832
