They will check their list prices as per Indian Customs and then calculate the duty, less your exemption. (One pax only, as 2 pax exemptions cannot be combined/clubbed together)
A year ago they were letting in everything under 32" - anything larger and they would then go in for the kill...

Customs duty on LED & LCD TV on Delhi international airport
Hello everybody,
Too so many Indians who are traveling abroad wants to import some of electronics stuff back to India. Most of them worry about the custom duty to be paid on Delhi international airport as we aren't aware with current rules & regulation.
Its would be an honor to give some sort of assurance through this thread for duty payout on Delhi international airport for taking electronic items say LCD or LED while moving back to India.
According to the latest customs duty payout there is no duty (extra charge) for 32 inch LED/LCD up to 25000 Rs & for 40 inch LED/LCD up to 35000 Rs. Is this correct?
If anybody has faced any problem with regards to 40 inch LED/LCD up to 35000 on Delhi international airport or want everybody to bring up to date information please reply to the thread.
Question to everybody,
1. What is the duty for LED/LCD which aren't 32 or 40 inch? Say 42 inch. Does it imply to same 40 inch LED/LCD up to 35000.
2.What about the business visa, as I am sure that this custom's tariff's (25000 & 35000) applies on the tourist visa but not to business visa. Am i correct? Then what is the tariff's for business visa?

welcome to ft ayeshaarora....oliver2002 has mentioned some good threads to go through....but at the end of the day the saving is hardly substantial enough to justify the trouble of carrying a tv from another country to india....

From their website:
Unless your TV is foldable, there is no way that it meets these requirements.
Each piece must not exceed the following dimensions: 56cm x 36cm x 23 cm (115cm total)
...
Carry-on baggage must be stowed underneath the seat in front of the passenger or in the overhead compartment.
