Importing sex dolls in india

I want to import sex dolls from international sellers will it get confiscated at customs?
Vidhikarya
A.Dear client,
In your case importing sex dolls into India presents considerable legal hurdles due to strict regulations on materials deemed obscene or explicit. Relevant laws include Section 292 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), which deals with the distribution of obscene content, the Customs Act of 1962, which permits customs officials to confiscate prohibited goods, and the Indecent Representation of Women (Prohibition) Act of 1986, which prohibits indecent depictions of women. Additionally, the Information Technology Act of 2000 restricts the online transmission of obscene material. Together, these regulations pose a significant risk of customs seizure for sex dolls.
Customs authorities in India have considerable discretion in interpreting and enforcing these laws, which can lead to inconsistent enforcement. While proper documentation and discreet packaging might mitigate some risks, they do not ensure successful importation. Given the stringent regulatory landscape, thorough research and professional advice are crucial to avoid legal issues when importing sex dolls into India. Hope our prompt support in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
