Scrappage Policy is here: Will you be able to drive your 15-year-old vehicle from 1st April 2021

Abstract

Transporting vehicles older than 8 years and non-transporting vehicles older than 15 years will now be charged a ‘Green Tax’ upon fitness certificate renewal. This move is a part of India’s new scrappage policy, with the goal of taking many older, more polluting vehicles off the road. Owners of scrapping-eligible vehicles may get tax benefits. Some exemptions will be made, such as for public transportation vehicles and vehicles using alternative fuels like CNG, LPG, and bio-fuels – AI-generated abstract.
