Maharashtra transporters rejoice scrapping of Warai tax on goods transportation
Transporters in Maharashtra are rejoicing the scrapping of Warai tax on transportation of goods and have thanked the Maharashtra government for the decision. Warai charges are local unloading charges from the trucks on an average per truck depending on the tonnage and official receipt is also issued in most of the cases.
“With the circular dated 16th January 2024 issued by the marketing directorate of the Department of Co-operatives, Marketing and Textiles to the Chairmen of Agriculture Produce Market Committees across the state, collection of Warai tax has been scrapped. It would now be an illegal act to collect the amount towards warai & entry tax from the owners and drivers of the transport vehicles,” Suresh Khosla, president of Bombay Goods Transport Association (BGTA), said.
