NO TAX FOR TAXIS, AUTOS ENTERING HARYANA FROM NATIONAL CAPITAL

CHANDIGARH: The Haryana cabinet on Wednesday decided to exempt from motor vehicle tax auto rickshaws as well as taxis operating within the NCR as per contract carriage permit issued by the NCR states.

The new rule will mean no tax being charged from such vehicles of other NCR states having contract carriage permits under the NCR reciprocal common transport agreement while entering Haryana.

This decision is expected to help unrestricted and seamless travel of taxis and auto rickshaws in the NCR states. This will also provide better and efficient transport services to the general public in the NCR, an official spokesperson from the transport department said.

This decision was taken in the cabinet meeting held under the chairmanship of chief minister Manohar Lal Khattar.
