India cut VAT on electric vehicles to 5%


The Indian government has decided to cut VAT on electric vehicles from 12% to 5% and charging stations from 18% to 12%. In addition, the purchase of electric buses by the municipalities is exempt from VAT.

The changes will come into force on 1 August 2019. The VAT on petrol and diesel remains at 28 percent. With the tax cut, the Indian government wants to reduce the price difference between the two types of power in order to make electric cars more affordable.
