 Illegal trade over the India- Bangladesh border is roughly
of the same volume as the legal. Wheat, rice, sugar, and
cough syrup account for 50% of the illegal trade. The
other 30% is accounted for by just one commodity—
which can fetch as much as $900 per unit. Many people
make as much as $22 every time they transport a unit
into Bangladesh.
 This typically involves a jury-rigged mechanism of
bamboo poles, iron hooks and old barbed wire because
the units are bulky and need to be hoisted over a 1- foot
high fence. In 2008, the BSF captured about 70000 units,
worth $63 million, but had to auction them –where they
were bought back by the same people who tried
smuggling them in the first place.

misleading, it is typically legal.
