GST cess hiked on mid-size, large cars and SUVs: five things to know, The Indian Express

GST cess hiked on mid-size, large cars and SUVs: five things to know

Mid-size, large cars and SUVs are soon going to be expensive. Under the fresh GST regime, the cess on the particular segment of cars has been hiked from the existing fifteen per cent to twenty five per cent. The segment had become cheaper after the GST rollout on July one this year and therefore the GST Council on August five had approved raising the cess on the segment. The finance ministry had said that after introduction of GST, the total tax on motor vehicles (GST plus compensation cess) had come down vis-a-vis the total incidence in pre-GST regime. In the next meeting on September 9, the Council will determine the date on which the cess will become applicable.

1. The promulgation of an ordinance to increase the cess on the luxury car segment was cleared by the Cabinet earlier Wednesday. In order to impose the cess, an amendment to the Schedule of section eight of the GST (Compensation to a State) Act, two thousand seventeen was required. A decent legislation, that has the approval of Parliament, will substitute the ordinance in six months.

Two. Tax incidence on motor-vehicles before GST was calculated to be 52-54.72%. An addition of central sales tax and octroi came out to be Two.5%. In order to take the tax incidence to pre-GST level, a cess of 25% had to be imposed.

Three. Many SUV models had experienced price cuts ranging from Rs one lakh-Rs three lakh post the passage of the GST bill. Now, with the imposition of cess, the cuts will be reversed. Cars under GST were taxed at the highest rate of 28% with extra cess ranging from 1% to 15%. The levy of cess differed on vehicles having petrol and diesel engines. Diesel engines less than one thousand five hundred cc attracted more cess compared to petrol engines.

Four. Japanese auto major Honda has said that the increase in cess will become an impediment in the way for India to become a global hub for automobile production. “Such a stir will influence the growth of advanced global models in India and will isolate India as a market with too much bias towards puny cars,” HCIL President and CEO Yoichiro Ueno had said. Companies have unanimously said that the imposition of enlargened cess would slow down sales in the market.

Five. Some of the models that had experienced a price-cut post GST were: Alto (Rs Two,000-Rs Five,000), WagonR (Rs Five,000-Rs 8,300), Swift (Rs 6,700-Rs Ten,700), Vitara Brezza (Rs Ten,400-Rs 14,700), Verna and Elantra (Rs 27,000-Rs 70,000), Tiago, Zest and Indica (Rs 5000-Rs 21000), Etios and Corolla (upto Rs 57000) and Kwid and Pulse (upto Rs 17000). All these models will now be priced higher with the imposition of the cess as approved by the GST council.
