ITC cigarettes business is hugely affectted by smuggling. Over 7% of branded cigarette in india are smuggled. And the main reason as explained in an earleir article is that MNC cigarette companies have huge capacity which is slowing and india isba big market so when work systematically get goods to free ports like Dubai and Singapore and nearby SA countries like SLK BANG NPL and then have agents summgle these . Huge customs duty evasion is seen.
Once possible step that GOI can do is set up customs duty outpost specifically at these locations . Given the imprived relations on india with these nations i wouls assume its possible .ams only if duty isnpaid upfront should good be allowed to be moved.
