Sale of an old car by a partnership firm

Others 3582 views 2 replies

We are a partnership firm registered under GST. We are NOT in the business of trading or dealing in cars.

As per established practice and as allowed by law a partnership firm can pay for a  motor car purchased in the name of the partner and book such a vehicle as an asset of the firm. The original invoice as well as RC regn of the car is in the name of the partner. Depreciation can be claimed by the firm on this car as per the rate allowed since such a car is being shown as an asset of the firm. The current book value of this car is obviously much less than the price paid for it. If we want to sell this car now to a registered or an unregistered entity will GST be applicable ?

Thank you But even if it comes under the ambit of GST which means a tax invoice has to be issued, since selling price is lesser than cost price, will GST have to be charged. If that is true it leads to a cascading effect since ITC cannot be taken on purchase of a vehicle by a firm if such firm is not a dealer in vehicles.
