GST on Motor Car Sale: Tax Charged Only on Profit Margin Per Notification No. 8/2018-CTR, Not Full Proceeds. A forum participant inquired about the applicability of GST on the sale of a motor car, both purchased in the VAT era and the GST era, without claiming input tax credit (ITC). The main question was whether GST should be charged on the profit or the entire sale proceeds. The responses referenced Notification No. 8/2018-CTR, indicating that GST applies only to the margin between the sale proceeds and the depreciated value according to income tax rules. Other participants agreed with this interpretation, confirming GST is applicable on the margin in both scenarios. (AI Summary)
