Levy of Entry Tax - The vehicle was first registered in the year 1994 in the Union Territory of Pondicherry. It was imported into the State by the petitioner only during October, 1998. Therefore, the purchase by the petitioner was beyond the period of 15/18 months after its registration. It was not necessary for the petitioner to have a prior registration of the vehicles in his own name in the Union Territory of Pondicherry to claim exemption under proviso (b) to Section 3(1) of the Act. There is no scope to levy entry tax on the petitioner under proviso (b) to Section 3(1) of the Act on the imported “MMV Hydraulic Mobile Crane” purchased from a seller in Union Territory of Pondicherry. - HC
