TAARA Foundation

TAARA calculator stack

Export-related consulting

Build export clarity before building export risk.

This is the parent page for TAARA’s calculator stack. The first real tool below is an HSN finder built from your government HSN master file, and the next layers will be pricing, duty, and FTA clarity.

HSN / HS finder

Plain-language product search that returns HS6 plus India ITC-HS 8-digit where relevant.

Phase 1BNext build

FOB to CIF quote builder

Build export price using EXW, packing, inland haulage, clearance, freight, and insurance.

Phase 1CNext build

India to destination duty / FTA estimator

Show likely MFN duty, FTA opportunity, and where the answer is still estimate-only.

First live calculator

Search HSN by product name or by code.

Type a product like Uppada saree, leather bag, turmeric powder, or enter a code directly. TAARA will search the government HSN master and show the closest matches.

This first version is search and shortlist only. It helps the user narrow the code before filing, not replace a final broker or documentation check.

Exact-source lookup

Use these results to shortlist the likely code. For handicrafts and mixed-material goods, do one final filing review before using it in live export documents.

First pricing calculator

Build FOB and CIF from line-level costs.

This version is manual-first and operator-friendly. Add your real cost rows, or start from one of the sample cases below, and TAARA will show the FOB and CIF build-up clearly.

Launch order

The next calculators should follow the exporter’s real sequence.

After HSN search, TAARA should answer quote clarity first, then duty friction, and only later move into comparison and incentive layers.

Phase 1A

HSN / HS finder

Plain-language product search that returns HS6 plus India ITC-HS 8-digit where relevant.

This one is now live on the page.

Phase 1B

FOB to CIF quote builder

Build export price using EXW, packing, inland haulage, clearance, freight, and insurance.

Core pricing workflow for exporters.

Phase 1C

India to destination duty / FTA estimator

Show likely MFN duty, FTA opportunity, and where the answer is still estimate-only.

Useful before a buyer quote gets locked.

Phase 1D

India import landed-cost calculator

Backward-compatible landed-cost flow using India-side customs logic and statutory fallbacks.

Good for import-facing comparison and validation.

Phase 2

RoDTEP and comparison mode

Add incentive estimate, scenario compare, and route-vs-route analysis after the base outputs feel trustworthy.

This comes after the first four are stable.

Launch defaults

Keep version one tight and India-first.

The strongest starting shape is India-origin export logic first, limited country coverage, limited currencies, and only the most-used Incoterms.

What the result should do

Utility first, lead capture second.

The user should get the first useful answer without a hard gate, then decide whether to save, export, or ask for help.

  • Show first useful result before forcing login.
  • Ask for login only on save, PDF, share, or dashboard history.
  • Offer Get expert review, Request freight quote, and Save PDF after the result.
  • Keep a visible disclaimer on exact-source vs indicative estimate.

Source trust hierarchy

Official law and official trade data should sit above convenience sources.

TAARA should lead with public India sources first, then use global data only for estimate-mode destination guidance.

DGFT ITC-HS

India 8-digit classification and policy restrictions

CBIC / India Code

Valuation rules, customs FX, GST logic, statutory fallback rules

ICEGATE

India duty-reference validation and customs framing

WTO TTD / ITC Market Access Map

Destination-side estimate mode for tariffs and FTA awareness

ICC / freight benchmarks

Incoterm framing and optional benchmark guidance only

This page is the parent shell for a growing calculator stack.

The first live tool is HSN search. Next we can add FOB to CIF pricing, then duty and FTA logic, one clean layer at a time.
