MoRTH issued an advisory dated January 19, 2024, whereby it has stated that there is an increased number of cases where, upon movement of vehicles from one State to another, owners of such vehicles are facing delays in receiving refund of motor vehicle tax paid to the original State/ Union Territory at the time of registration of motor vehicles. This has led to owners having to pay double motor vehicle tax as such owners have to pay taxes in the new state as well.
Considering the above situation, MoRTH directed all States/ Union Territories to devise specific timelines for refund of motor vehicle tax. The advisory directs States/ Union Territories to clearly specify the number of days from the date of receipt of application from owner for refund of motor vehicle tax within which the refund is made to the owner.
