purchase the car in business name, avail depreciation benefit to reduce the tax liability, avail car maintanance ( fuel etc),
in personal hands, car is an effect, and no such benefits are available for assessee.
DEAR BRIJESH
AS FAR AS YOUR QUESTION IS CONCERNED , IT DEPENDS ON THE RATE OF RETURN YOU ARE GETTING FROM INVESTMENT AS WELL AS RATE OF INTEREST ON LOAN FOR THE CAR. GENERALLY THE RATE OF INTEREST ON CARS ARE LOWER THAN PERSONAL LOANS . SO I WILL SUGGEST YOU TO INVEST THE MONEY AND GET RETURNS AND PURCHASE THE CAR ON LOAN IN THE NAME OF THE FIRM SO THAT U CAN CLAIM DEPRECIATION AS WELL AS OTHER MAINTAINENCE COST ALONG WITH INTEREST ON LOAN .
depends on ur requirement too.....what purpose u wanna use the car for? What rate of interest are u getting.....??
