GST on batteries and charging services needs to be cut to keep electric vehicles competitive and boost customer adoption, FICCI Electric Vehicle Committee Chair Sulajja Firodia Motwani said.
Speaking at sidelines of FICCI National Conference on EVs here, she also stressed enhancing PM E-Drive corpus to support enhanced sales of EVs.
“We would be making a recommendation to the GST Council to rationalise the GST taxation on EV-related areas,” Motwani said.
Elaborating on the demands, she noted, “Currently the GST on charging services is still 18 per cent which we would request to bring down to 5 per cent so that charging becomes more affordable to the consumers.” Secondly, the GST on batteries should also come down to 5 per cent, Motwani added.PTI
