Psilocybin absent magic mushroom grow kit import

Is it legally okay to order magic mushroom grow kit from Europe?
The kit contains neither Psilocybin nor Psilocin.
The kit can be used to grow magic mushroom once received in India. Please advise.

Any activity with magic mushroom is still illegal, under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substan.ce

The effect of this order is to render the possession or sale of so-called 'magic' mushrooms criminal offences under the Act. Heretofore, it was illegal to possess or supply magic mushrooms in a dried or prepared state but lawful to possess and sell them in their natural state..
You may better exercise caution before venturing into such activities.

Hi, thanks for the reply. 

The grow kit does not contain the chemical cited in the NDPS Act. So it not yet a magic mushroom. It would help in growing magic mushrooms locally.

The intention behind growing it is for personal medicinal use and not for sale.

You may give any explanation but you cannot violate the law or take law into your hand just because you are justifying your stand
