Ahead of the budget, the ministry of heavy industries and auto companies have made a fresh pitch for concessions for CNG vehicles, once seen as a symbol of cleaner transport. One of the key demands is to slash GST on these vehicles from the current 28%, with auto industry representatives demanding that it should be comparable with electric vehicles, which attracts a 5% levy.
In recent months, govt has been quite categorical about its support for EVs and has refused to respond to demands from the powerful Japanese lobby to slash the tax on hybrids. Finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman has stayed clear of GST changes in the budget since it is an issue that is decided by the GST Council, which includes ministers from the states.
