Sir, RTO is giving clarification as to whether Life tax/road tax exemption is available irrespective of whether vehicle is driven by handicapped or not.
The Central Govt guidelines, permitting GST concession clearly state that irrespective of whoever drives the car. In that case, please also clarify whether driving license is required in the name of handicapped person.
Please provide your clarification at the earliest.

Dear Sir,
I want to purchase Baleno Zeta CVT. As per the information, the dealer will charge 28% GST + 1% cess. The other charges which includes with it are Road Tax + insurance. I have the following queries: 1.To get 10% GST relaxation and 1% cess exemption, whether the certificate issues by MHI serves the both or only for GST. Is there any Govt. order to exempt the Cess (most recent)?
2. What about road tax in Assam, in many states the road taxes are exempted for physically handicapped persons.
3. Is there any relaxation on the insurance premium for car owned by physically handicapped?
I will be very helpful if you could reply my queries with supporting documents/ link. Thanking you in advance. With regards,
Mou

Has finance ministry laid any limit on type of car for handicapped to avail 18% GST ?
Then why this less than 4000mm length and 1200cc, in which even common cars like Maruti Ciaz, Honda City, Creta etc don’t fit in . It should have been as per cost too, i,e; 1500cc, 4500mm length and 15 lakh basic cost
