How we price this for Assam

We take each India national base range and multiply it by a local index of 0.82, built from regional wage data (PLFS 2023-24 state earnings) (there is no India equivalent of the U.S. Regional Price Parity, so the price and overhead terms are held at the national baseline):

index = 0.82

The wage term uses Assam median vs India median, PLFS average earnings. Parts ship at national prices, so only the labour share moves with the state. All figures are in rupees — we never convert prices from other countries; the India base ranges come from Indian sources. Full weights and vintages are on the methodology page.

Local rules & taxes in India

Sales tax on appliance repair

Repair labor is taxable here. Repair and maintenance of household electrical appliances (fridges, washing machines, mixers, etc.) is taxed under GST at 18% — SAC 998715 within heading 9987 — billed as CGST 9% + SGST 9% (or IGST 18% for inter-state supply), per the CGST Act 2017 and rate Notification 11/2017-Central Tax (Rate). Small repair firms and sole traders below the ₹20 lakh annual turnover GST-registration threshold (₹10 lakh in special-category states) are not required to register and charge no GST, so treat 18% as a ceiling rather than a guaranteed add-on.

services suppliers whose aggregate turnover is below ₹20 lakh (₹10 lakh in special-category states) are not required to register for GST and may charge none

Licensing & certification

There is no dedicated national licence for plug-in appliance repair in India, and that work is largely unregulated. Only jobs touching fixed electrical wiring require an Electrical Contractor Licence and Wireman/Supervisor Certificate of Competency, issued by each State Electrical Inspectorate under the Electricity Act 2003 and the Indian Electricity Rules 1956; operating without one can carry fines of ₹5,000-1,00,000 and up to 3 years under Section 138 of the Act. There is no national refrigerant-handling certification comparable to US EPA 608, and larger repair businesses also need GST and state Shops & Establishments registration.
