The Ministry of Finance, through the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC), issued Notification No. 64/2025-Customs (N.T.) dated 9th October 2025, amending Notification No. 36/2001-Customs (N.T.) concerning tariff values of specified imported goods under Section 14(2) of the Customs Act, 1962. The revised notification substitutes Tables 1, 2, and 3 of the earlier notification, maintaining the existing tariff values for key commodities including edible oils, metals, and agricultural items.
Under Table-1, tariff values for edible oils remain unchanged: crude palm oil at USD 1108/MT, RBD palm oil at USD 1132/MT, crude palmolein at USD 1141/MT, RBD palmolein at USD 1144/MT, and crude soybean oil at USD 1181/MT. Brass scrap continues at USD 5690/MT.
Table-2 pertains to precious metals, also with no change. Gold (in all eligible forms) remains valued at USD 1300 per 10 grams, while silver (in all applicable forms) continues at USD 1515 per kilogram. The table reiterates specific conditions for gold and silver imports, defining “gold findings” and excluding jewellery and foreign currency coins from the scope of “silver in any form.”
Table-3 retains the tariff value for areca nuts at USD 7463 per metric tonne.
The revised tariff values take effect from 10th October 2025. This notification follows the previous amendment made via Notification No. 60/2025-Customs (N.T.) dated 30th September 2025. The unchanged rates suggest stability in international prices for the listed commodities and aim to maintain uniformity in customs valuation practices for the period ahead.
