You might be able to get away without paying tax for CPU, MOBO and HDD as long as you get them separately but you will be taxed for the phone and might even have to go to the customs to clear the phone.

well, they can confiscate it since you need permission to import phones. No other trouble except that they can keep the phone.
Taxes will be standard tax that they charge on imported phones. No idea about the amount now.
