3: And worse thing ,Handling baggage is really bad in india,plz pack it propoerly.
The customs limit is clearly mentioned in the customs website http://www.cbec.gov.in/travellers.htm as well as the arrival immigration form..
Wrt point 3, there is always a risk that tv gets damaged due to improper handling..
