  • SBP prohibits bank loans for imported vehicles

    SBP prohibits bank loans for imported vehicles

    KARACHI: The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) on Thursday amended regulations to prohibit financing for imported vehicles.

     “The changes in the PRs effectively prohibit financing for imported vehicles,” the SBP said in a statement.

    According to the statement, the SBP had revised Prudential Regulations (PRS) for Consumer Financing.

    This targeted step will help to moderate demand growth in the economy, leading to slower import growth and thus supporting the balance of payments.

    The changes in the regulations effectively prohibit financing for imported vehicles and tighten regulatory requirements for financing of domestically manufactured/ assembled vehicles of more than 1000 cc engine capacity and other Consumer Finance facilities like personal loans and credit cards. Following changes have been made in this regard:

    — Maximum tenure of auto finance has been reduced from seven (7) to five (5) years;

    — Maximum tenure of personal loan has been reduced from five (5) to four (4) years

    — Maximum debt-burden ratio, allowed to a borrower, has been decreased from 50 to 40 percent;

    — Overall auto financing limits availed by one person from all banks/DFIs, in aggregate, will not exceed Rs3,000,000, at any point in time; and

    — Minimum down payment for auto financing has been increased from 15 percent to 30 percent.

    With the objective to protect lower to middle-income category purchases, these new regulations are not applicable to locally manufactured or assembled vehicles of up to 1,000 cc engine capacity, the SBP said.

    They are also not applicable to locally manufactured electric vehicles to promote the use of clean energy.

    The financing of these two categories of vehicles will continue to be governed by the previous set of regulations.

    Further, in order to encourage Roshan Digital Accounts and facilitate overseas Pakistan who have opened these accounts, regulatory instructions for Roshan Apni Car products of the banks or DFIs have also not been changed.

  • Budget 2021/2022: Duty, taxes abolished on cars up to 850cc

    Budget 2021/2022: Duty, taxes abolished on cars up to 850cc

    ISLAMABAD: The government has announced abolishing duty and taxes on locally manufactured and imported cars with engine capacity up to 850cc to enable low earning families to afford motor vehicles.

    Finance Minister Shaukat Tarin while presenting federal #budget 2021/2022 on Friday announced duty and tax incentives for sale and import of motor cars with engine capacity up to 850cc.

    The finance minister made following announcement:

    Withdrawal of FED and Reduction in Sales Tax on Locally Manufactured cars up to 850 cc: Rising prices of locally manufactured small cars is a major concern for low earning families. Accordingly, it is proposed that small cars upto 850 cc capacity may be exempted from levy of FE besides reducing Sales Tax rate from 17% to 12.5% and withdrawing value added tax.

    Exemption from Withholding Tax on Import: It is proposed that no tax may be collected on imports of books, journals, agriculture equipment and motor vehicles in CBU condition upto 850 cc.

    To incentives this sector further additional custom duty and regulatory duty on CBU import of vehicles upto 850cc are being exempted.

    Whereas relief to existing manufacturing industry and new models is also being provided by removing Additional Customs Duty (ACD) and rationalizing the tariff structure.

    Due to these targeted interventions the middle class of this country will be able to afford a car of this specific category and will accrue the benefits of governments flagship projects of “Meri Gari Scheme” which will enable many countrymen who wish to graduate from motorcycle to own their car by providing small car at an affordable price.

    Moreover further incentives in the form of reduction of customs duties are also being provided to electric vehicles for one year to promote the culture of electric vehicle in Pakistan.

    Similarly, keeping in view the changing international motorcycles trend usage of local manufacturing of heavy motorcycles and specific categories of trucks and tractors are also being incentivised by rationalizing the tariff structure.

    Tax Incentives for promoting electric vehicles: To address environmental issues, reduce reliance on gasoline and provide cheaper source of transportation to public, Government of Pakistan is encouraging the manufacture and use of electric vehicles.

    For this purpose, various tax exemptions and concessions are being proposed, which include tax exemption on import of CKD kits for local manufacturing of electric vehicles, reduction in sales tax rate on locally manufactured electric vehicles from 17% to 1%, withdrawal ofvalue addition tax on import of electric vehicles and CKD kits and withdrawal of federal excise duty on 4-wheelers electric vehicles.

  • Sharp growth recorded in import of CBU, CKD motor cars

    Sharp growth recorded in import of CBU, CKD motor cars

    ISLAMABAD: A sharp growth has been witnessed in import of motor cars in the categories of Completely Build Unit (CBU) and Completely Knocked Down (CKD) during first nine months (July – March) of 2020/2021.

    The import of motor cars in both the categories recorded over 100 percent growth.

    According to data released by Pakistan Bureau of Statistics (PBS) the import of CBU motor cars increased by 149 percent to $161.21 million during first nine months of the current fiscal year as compared with $64.8 million in the corresponding period of the last fiscal year.

    Similarly, the import of CKD cars increased by 113 percent to $733 million during July – March 2020/2021 as compared with $343.4 million in the same period of the last fiscal year.

    Analysts said that import of CBU cars increased due to ease in air travel restrictions after reduction in coronavirus cases globally.

    Besides, the import of CKD cars can be attributed to acceleration in domestic industrial activities after lifting of lockdown that was imposed to prevent spread of coronavirus cases.

  • FBR urged to allow commercial import of used cars to end auto assemblers monopoly

    FBR urged to allow commercial import of used cars to end auto assemblers monopoly

    KARACHI: Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has been urged to allow commercial import of used and reconditioned cars of models up to five years old to end monopoly of local car assemblers.

    Karachi Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KCCI) in its proposals for budget 2021/2022 recommended the commercial import of used and reconditioned motor cars up to five years old.

    The chamber said that during the past 40 years, assemblers of automobiles have enjoyed protective duties, exemptions and virtual monopoly in Pakistan’s automobile car market.

    Contrary to initial agreements, the assemblers failed to implement deletion program up to 90 percent. Instead, they are importing CKD while they have created vendors who mostly import auto parts and supply to these assemblers.

    Consequently, the so called vendor industry is only producing low quality and non-mechanical parts which is clearly visible in locally assembled cars.

    So far the assemblers have only drained Pakistan’s foreign exchange reserves to the tune of billions of dollars.

    Quality of automobiles produced by the assemblers is so poor that not a single unit of these cars has ever been exported to any country.

    Despite such poor quality, artificial shortage is created to fetch a premium on the early delivery and allow undocumented investors to exploit genuine buyers.

    The chamber said that import of reconditioned cars more than 3 years old model has been restricted to favor the assemblers and exploit the middle class people of Pakistan who can no more afford to buy even a small 660cc to 1000cc imported or local car.

    Ironically, import of brand new cars of high capacity and premium brands is allowed which only benefits the elite. Middle class consumers have been deprived of their right to purchase reasonably priced used/reconditioned cars which have a better quality and safety standard than the locally assembled new vehicles.

    Clearly there is an element of corruption, connivance and vested interest involved in formulating auto-policies. Unfortunately, the vested interests are also resisting to change the policy to allow import of reconditioned cars by reducing the Tariff rates and also permit import of cars of up to five year old models.

    The chamber further said that enough protection has been given for decades to assemblers.

    The chamber has given a comprehensive tariff plan for import of used and reconditioned cars.

    ISLAMABAD: The import of used and old cars recorded a growth of 166 percent during first seven months (July – January) of 2020/2021 owing to significant decline in coronavirus cases and relaxation in economic activities by easing COVID lockdown.

    According to data released by Pakistan Bureau of Statistics (PBS) on Wednesday, the import payment for used and old cars surged to $116 million during first seven months of the current fiscal year as compared with $43.64 million in the corresponding months of the last fiscal year.

    Sources in Pakistan Customs attributed the growth in imported cars to ease in travel restriction following decline in coronavirus cases across the world and start of vaccination to cure the pandemic.

    As per import policy of Pakistan every person can bring a new motor car by paying prevailing rate of duty and taxes. However, the commercial import of motor cars is not allowed.

    The import of used cars is allowed under various schemes to facilitate Pakistanis living abroad. The overseas Pakistanis can bring motor cars under personal baggage, transfer of resident or gift schemes.

    New vehicles can be imported into Pakistan freely by any one against payment of duty & taxes under generally applicable import procedures and requirements.

    Officials in Pakistan Customs said that Pakistani nationals residing abroad including dual nationals can import old and used vehicles into Pakistan under the following 03 schemes: Personal Baggage; Gift Scheme; Transfer of Residence.

    Cars not older than 03 years and other vehicles not older than 05 years can be imported under these schemes.

    The structure of duty and taxes under these 03 schemes remains the same. Motorcycles and Scooters can only be imported under Transfer of Residence Scheme.

    Students receiving remittance from Pakistan, non-earning members of the Pakistani nationals living abroad and those who have imported, gifted or received a vehicle in the past two years are not eligible.

    The customs authorities said that all vehicles in new/used condition to be imported under transfer of residence, personal baggage or under gift scheme, the duty and taxes shall be paid out of foreign exchange arranged by Pakistan nationals themselves or local recipient supported by bank enchashment certificate showing conversion of foreign remittance to local currency, as under:

    a. the remittance for payment of duty and taxes shall originate from the account of Pakistani national sending the vehicle from abroad; and

    b. the remittance shall either be received in account of Pakistani national sending the vehicle from abroad or, in case, his account is non-existent or inoperative, in the account of his family.

    The car manufacturing in the country has witnessed growth during the first half of the current fiscal year. However, the pace of manufacturing grew at a faster pace in the last months of the first half of the current fiscal year.
