Incidence of tax in case of hiring of vehicle

rates 1151 views 1 replies

I am working with a Public Limited Co.My question is---

We are hiring vehicle (Light) for day to day office work. Hiring is been done on monthly basis.Previously, the cab owner gave the Cab on rent and also supplied fuel.Accordingly we fixed the hire charges for the said vehicle.In that case,we only deducted TDS u/s 194I from the bills.

Now we are planning to issue fuel from our Central Store. We like to hire the Cab only(i.e. Dry Cab).

Is there any change in the incidence of Tax (any tax) on the part of the owner of the cab or to us?

Thank You,

No change !

In your case, there is no change in incidence except on the amount of hire and tax paid theron. You have to pay TDS U/s 194 I on hire amount. The Cab operator also, collects service tax on the hire amount. Previously the hire amount includes fuel cost also. But now because your company is paying for it, you may get some cost reduction benefit.
