Demand to reduce the GST rate now levied on auto LPG
New delhi date. August 27, 2019, Tuesday
The government has submitted a demand to the auto LPG organization to reduce the GST rate on LPG used as fuel in vehicles.
Indian Auto LPG Coalition, an association of auto LPG, said that control of LPG should be increased to maintain pollution control. Thus, the cost of LPG is lower as compared to petrol and diesel.
LPG is just as pure fuel as CNG. It also saves on fuel costs. It is currently consumed in 5% of the world's countries. CNG is also used as automobile fuel in countries like Iran, India. To increase awareness of LPG in people and to help keep the environment clean, the government should reduce the current levy on auto LPG by 5% instead of the high GST rate. The organization has informed the Finance Minister and the GST Council in writing.
Apart from this, the current GST kit for auto LPG gas is charged as high as 5%. It has also been introduced by the organization to reduce it to five percent.
