Dear sir

As per my view gst@12,% and compensation cess nil shall be charged. GST shall be charged on 65% of value on the margin of old used car.

AI Summary

GST on used motor car applies; taxable base limited to a portion of the margin and compensation cess not leviable. GST is chargeable on the sale of the used motor car while compensation cess is not leviable; GST is to be computed on the margin for the used car, applying to a prescribed proportion of the value of the margin rather than the full sale consideration.
