Tractor manufacturers welcome reduction 

of GST on exclusive tractor parts

The announcement of the GST council reducing GST on exclusive tractor parts has come as great relief to the farming community, which would otherwise have been impacted adversely. Tractor Manufacturer’s Association was very appreciative and thankful to Shri. Arun Jaitley, the honourable Finance Minister, Shri. Hasmukh Adya , Revenue Secretary and the GST council for reconsidering and reducing the GST on exclusive tractor components and parts. Tractor manufacturers are hopeful that all the exclusive tractor parts and components identified and furnished by them to the GST council will be fully covered by this notification.

Thanking the Finance Minister and the GST council headed by the Revenue Secretary, Ms. Mallika Srinivasan, Chairman of TAFE, said, “The reduction of GST from the earlier announcement of 28 % on tractor parts and components to 18 %, which reflects the pre GST revenue neutral duty, will be a great relief to the hard pressed farming community and will ensure that there is no increase in costs for the farmers from the pre GST days.”

TMA’s Immediate Past President and Chairman Technical Committee, Mr. T R Kesavan, said, “This reduction will go a long way in making small and medium farmers profitable, at a time when farm profitability has become critical.”
