Haryana to introduce vehicle scrappage policy

The Haryana government announced that it will implement a vehicle scrappage policy that will include incentives such as a fee rebate on new vehicle registration.

According to an official statement here, the five-year policy will be in sync with the Government of India's voluntary vehicle fleet modernisation programme, which will encourage the scrapping of vehicles that have reached the critical age of 10 years for diesel vehicles and 15 years for petrol vehicles.

Vehicles that have reached the critical age of 10 years for diesel vehicles and 15 years for gasoline vehicles will be scrapped under this policy. To facilitate the phase-out of unfit vehicles, an incentive-based system will be implemented. Furthermore, disincentives will be used to encourage the use of old, inoperable vehicles, which will be an expensive endeavour, it added.

The tax exemption shall be available to the extent of 10% of the motor vehicle tax chargeable or 50% of the scrapped value as stated in the certificate of deposit, whichever is less. On the registration of a new vehicle purchased using the certificate of deposit, a registration fee rebate of 25% will be provided.
