I suppose if you buy something from a foreign country then the money goes into their pockets and not into our own country's.So to deter this from happening the Govt says "If you want to buy something from them....then atleast give us something ..." and thats why they slap a 100+% tax on stuff u import.

Dont know much tech details ...

it's not 100%+ tax now on everything... excluding few commodities others are now charged anywhere between 20-30% like elec. goods...

If its a mobile, switch it on and keep it in your pocket

Cards etc are still "premium" items here in India, the sales are comparitively very low and hence to gain any sort of "weightable" profit, these dealers sell them at whopping margins ...>> 100% margins
