28 July 2015 It depends on the state VAT Act.
Here in Kerala, if a Machinery or Motor Vehicle is used for less that 18 months, he VAT rate on sale would be the original rate of that Machinery/ Vehicle (I.e, 14.5% presently). If used more than that period, it would be 0.50%.

Please refer your State VAT Act.
