India has ordered Samsung to pay a staggering $601 million in back taxes and penalties for allegedly dodging1 tariffs2 on the import of key telecommunications equipment.
This tax demand includes approximately 44.6 billion rupees ($520 million) in unpaid3 taxes along with a 100% penalty. The allegations stem from Samsung's misclassification of imports, specifically a critical transmission component4 known as the Remote Radio Head (RRH), which is essential for 4G telecom systems.
According to India's customs authorities, Samsung imported RRH equipment worth $784 million from Korea and Vietnam between 2018 and 2021 without paying the applicable duties, which ranged from 10% to 20%.
