Chapter 32 into Faridabad via ICD Faridabad. The classification, duty and compliance levers.
Chapter 32 — Tanning extracts, dyes, pigments, paints. If you are importing under Chapter 32 into Faridabad, your nearest operating gateway is ICD Faridabad. Aurum clears here daily.
Synthetic organic dyes (HS 3204), pigments (3206), paints & varnishes (3208), printing inks (3215).

Chapter 32 compliance overlaps three regulatory bodies in most cases. Faridabad has its own optimal routing — usually ICD Faridabad, occasionally JNPT or Mundra direct depending on consignment value, time-criticality and AEO status. We model the routing per consignment rather than defaulting to one gateway.
Faridabad's own ICD Faridabad (INFBD6) is the natural gateway, set up specifically to serve the city's industrial cluster — machinery, auto-component and steel-fabrication shops dominate the volume here. Sub-two-hour last-mile to Ballabgarh, NIT Faridabad and Sector 25 means demurrage exposure is among the lowest in NCR.
Pre-shipment classification, duty estimate and PGA mapping — done before goods leave China, not after they're stuck.

For Faridabad-bound cargo, ICD Faridabad usually wins on landed cost because rail-haul is bundled and last-mile is short. JNPT/Mundra direct only beats it for time-critical or oversized consignments, or for AEO-T1+ importers running DPD.
Without pre-clearance, Chapter 32 consignments are held at the dock more often than not — ADD on dyes from China, BIS QCO on paints, SDS compliance. If you pre-apply 6–10 weeks before vessel ETA, holds are rare.
No — Anti-Dumping Duty applies only to specific dyes against named Chinese producers under live DGTR notifications. The combination of HS code, exporter and notification ref decides exposure. We verify per consignment.
