Sales tax on Suzuki made cars has been reduced by five per cent. According to the Federal Tax Ombudsman Dr. Asif Mehmood Jah, the margin of sales tax on Suzuki made vehicles has been reduced to 12pc from 17pc.
The approval was given by the President of Pakistan Dr Arif Alvi, after hundreds of car buyers complained that the car company charged the old 17 per cent tax despite delivering the cars after the budget approval.
They argued that since the company was responsible for delayed delivery, the current tax should be charged.
The FTO said that directions have been issued to return five per cent extra sales tax charged from the Suzuki car purchasers.
