Hello, can anyone please tell what is the method to be used for computation of wealth tax on motor cars used for business purpose. Whether it should be WDV on the valuation date as per Rule 14 or fair value as per Rule 20.

For motor cars the market value is to be taken for wealth tax purposes. Generally, one adopts 80% of the insured value of the car as the market value, as upheld by a tribunal decision.

The decision W.T.A. No.6 to 8/Mds/10 of the Mumbai Bench of the Tribunal in the case of Samrath Knitters P.Ltd. held that 80% of the insured value should be considered for computing the net wealth.
