With the increase in petro prices and the new slab rates, inflation will go up.

This is the statement from budget website regarding EV's

"Full exemption from Central Excise duty was provided to electric cars and vehicles that offer an eco-friendly alternative to petrol or diesel vehicles. The manufacturers of such vehicles have expressed difficulty in neutralising the duty paid on their inputs and components. I propose to remedy this by imposing a nominal duty of 4 per cent on such vehicles. I also propose to exempt some critical parts or sub-assemblies of such vehicles from basic customs duty and special additional duty subject to actual user condition. These parts would also enjoy a concessional CVD of 4 per cent."

Note sure if it was an increase or a rationalisation ?

And no compulsion to spend more - just keep it with you
12:47Net revenue gain of Rs 43,500 cr from customs, excise proposal12:47Direct tax proposals result in Rs 26,000 cr loss; indirect tax yield Rs 45,000 cr gain

MAT increase will reflect just about everywhere. Of course you can reduce on spending but for what? to spend at a later time?

I have a question
12:34Full excise cut on electric cars
does this include hybrids?

hikes

hike in car prices announced by all car manufacturers- looks like those who bought to beat the budget this time really made some savings. Again the same question- when budget recommendations take effect post march, why hike now? Is there no regulation in place to ensure the right thing happens??
