If his consideration on the value of consignment being cleared, eg. 1% of BE value then he is right. You may see your contract and approach tax consultant if it is varying.

You may consult a local tax consultant for getting a proper opinion in this regard.

I am afraid, either your friend has not given you full facts, or you have not understood the issue.
Please come up with correct facts.
