In case , the person is registered person and he has taken ITC on car , then the rate of GST is same as in the new car.

In case the person has claimed depreciation on the value of car (5 years, 20% each year).... if he has sold car before 5 years , then he has to proportionately apply GST(as same amount of depreciation claimed on the amount of GST ).

In case of unregistered person selling the car , he has nothing to do with GST .

In case of sale of car as scrap (after 5 years) , rate of GST shall be such ,as is applicable in case of sale of Scrap .

If ITC claim , then GST is on transaction Value
