If this vehicle does not get covered under notification 8/2018-CTR - GST and cess would be liable on the sale.

Why is the doubt?

Thank u mdm for ur reply. Compensation cess on purchase was not claimed or adjusted against ITC , can we setoff the same while selling the Lorry?

1. Since ITC under GST was availed on purchase, Notification No 8/2018 dated 25-01-2018 will not apply and hence, provisions of section 18(6) r.w. rule 40 shall apply.

2. In my opinion, Compensation cess is also applicable since the Entry 42A of Notification No. 1/2017 compensation cess (rate) dated 28-07-2017 shall not apply as ITC has been availed.

Looks like some portion of my reply in point 1 is missed to be posted.

I agree with the post by Mr. Padmanathan.
