Hi all,
I have placed an order for a 3 KVA Krykard Servo stabilizer with RFI filter and spike suppressor with the Chennai based company. Krykard people told me that they needed something called a "way bill" for its transport to Kolkata. For this purpose they initially asked me to send them a letter signed by me stating that this would be used for home purposes. However, after some time they came back and told me that the their shippers are not accepting it to ship without an official "way bill / road permit" to be issued by the ST dept here in Kolkata. Now I have tried to get it from the ST office in Kolkata and so far I have failed because it's an unimaginable place for me to handle.
Since I know that people are always buying AV equipments and a whole lot of other stuff from far-away cities and getting them shipped to their homes, has anybody faced a similar problem?
I am just wondering: I am buying the servo stab paying whatever taxes applicable here in India with a proper bill, then why should there be a problem at all? Is anybody taking me for a ride here and why?
