Subject transactions attract GST, in my ex-facie view.

If you can explain reasons for your doubts or context for legal provisions involved etc., it would help answering your query better.

Sir,

As per Section 18 (6) of CGST Act, 2017 in case of supply of capital goods or plant and machinery, on which input tax credit has been taken, the registered person shall pay an amount equal to the input tax credit taken on the said capital goods or plant and machinery reduced by such percentage points as may be prescribed or the tax on the transaction value of such capital goods or plant and machinery determined under section 15, whichever is higher.

This provision is applicable if ITC on the truck purchased is availed by you. Otherwise you have to pay gst on the transation value, that is the price at which it is sold to munrelated buyer.
