    Hi – I have a question and I wonder if you can answer that. My company leased a vehicle from a leasing company and gave it to me to use. As per agreement if I break lease then I have to buy the car. Now the leading company has quoted 28% gst and 20% Cess. Is that right ? The lease started pre gst and leasing company had not claimed imputbcredit on the same

  7. Udaya Chandran says:

    Whether the same is applicable to all the dealers or only to those who deals in second hand goods as in the Margin scheme? Please clarify.

    WHAT IS THE TAXATION ON SALE OF OLD VEHICLE ON WHICH SUPPLIER TAKEN INPUT TAX CREDIT

  9. Aman Jain says:

    Would like to know, if this view would apply even to those registered assessees who are not in the business of supplying used cars?

    Because, FAQs issued by CBEC highlight that the benefit of margin scheme will extend only to those assessees who are in the business of supplying used cars.

    Thanks
