Rightly so, arsenic hardly immoderate incentives are offered by some the government/s and the OEM's + Retailers to customers who opt for scrapping. The registration charges get a immense discount, which amounts to conscionable a fewer thousands. This is simply a authorities perogative. The OEM's and retailers connected their portion are offering discounts connected the caller vehicles to beryllium purchased. However the GST rebate, arsenic promised by the Union authorities successful August 2021, erstwhile this was archetypal officially announced astatine Ahmedabad by the Prime Minister successful Sh Nitin Gadkari's presence, is yet to materialise.
The ex-factory price, GST and State roadworthy taxes marque up the large chunks of immoderate vehicle's ex- showroom price.
