Automobiles like bikes, cars,
scooters, public transport, and auto rickshaw will now cost more in Maharashtra
as the government has proposed to hike the Motor vehicle tax on all vehicles in
order to fight one of the worst draughts in the state’s history.
Finance Minster of Maharashtra Sudhir Mungantiwar presenting budget on Friday said “the government will revise the existing Motor Vehicle Tax system. “Instead of levying tax on the basis of whether the vehicle is registered as a personal vehicle or company or office vehicle, we now propose to levy Motor Vehicle Tax on the basis of the cubic capacity of the vehicles”
Under
the revised system of tax, private vehicles of up-to 99cc will have 8 per cent
tax, those between 100cc and 299cc 9 percent while the ones above 300cc will be
taxed 10 per cent. In case of a company or any undertaking the vehicles will
attract just the double of the new proposed tax. For example a company vehicle
above 300cc will attract a tax rate of 20 per cent now.
The state will continue to tax
more on petrol & diesel due to draught in state & aims to earn overall
net additional revenue of Rs. 363 Cr.
With the rise in the tax
structure for new automobiles we will see a positive incline of people to buy
used automobiles in order to save them from paying the extra amount. The ratio
between new & used vehicle ratio has always been 1:1 most of the times,
however with these changes in tax we can expect the ratio to change & used
vehicle segment to attract more buyers.
