Legally brought some gold bars to india

• Customs, Excise and Service Tax
• Customs Check and Clearance
• Paid INR 15,000

I had legally purchased gold bars when abroad and brought them in legally as an NRI. when i went to the customs when arriving at the airport, they wanted me to pay based on blatantly false interpretation of the duties involved according to the tarriff sheet. When i insisted that i was not satisfied, they offered me the alternative to pay a fraction of the billable amount if i was prepared not to take an official bill. ipaidabribe.
