NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 8407 32 90 (spark-ignition reciprocating or rotary internal combustion piston engines of a cylinder capacity exceeding 50 cc but not exceeding 250 cc — residual category) is not covered by a Bureau of Indian Standards Quality Control Order and carries no Partner Government Agency clearance requirement at the tariff-line level. Import follows the standard customs procedure: Importer-Exporter Code (IEC), bill of entry, commercial invoice, packing list. Other engine classifications within Chapter 84 — particularly engines of larger displacement or those assembled into vehicles — may attract separate compliance requirements.

No partner government agency notification covers this tariff line.
A word of counsel

The principal risk at this tariff line is misclassification: engines destined for two-wheelers or specific off-road equipment may be pulled into a more specific tariff line within Chapter 84 or assessed under vehicle-related compliance regimes on customs examination. Re-classification triggers retrospective compliance and potential detention pending the relevant clearance. Confirm the engine's intended application, displacement, and configuration against the customs tariff before filing the bill of entry.
