    Global car manufacturers agree to introduce electric mini-commercial vans

    TOKYO, Japan: Leading global car manufacturers have agreed to work towards the market introduction of mini-commercial van electric vehicles (BEVs) in FY 2023 to achieve carbon neutrality.

    In a statement issued on Tuesday, Suzuki Motor Corporation (Suzuki), Daihatsu Motor Co., Ltd. (Daihatsu), Toyota Motor Corporation (Toyota), and Commercial Japan Partnership Technologies Corporation (CJPT) announced that they have agreed to work towards the market introduction of mini-commercial van electric vehicles (BEVs) in FY2023 to achieve carbon neutrality.

    Mini-commercial vehicles cover areas accessible only to them because of their small size and are important in supporting last-mile logistics. They have become widespread accounting for about 60% of the total commercial vehicle fleet, making them a type of vehicle capable of contributing significantly to the achievement of carbon neutrality if electrification advances.

    However, a major issue in promoting the electrification of mini-commercial vehicles is the increasing burden on society as a whole, including the higher vehicle costs associated with electrification, the costs related to charging infrastructure, and the charging time (downtime: a period when vehicles and cargo are stopped).

    It is under these circumstances, to realize an affordable mini-commercial van BEV that meets the usage needs of commercial customers, CJPT will participate in the planning, and Suzuki, Daihatsu, and Toyota will jointly develop a BEV system suitable for mini-commercial vehicles by combining Suzuki and Daihatsu’s know-how in manufacturing mini vehicles with Toyota’s electrification technology.

    The mini-commercial van BEV developed by these four companies will be used by partners in social implementation projects in Fukushima Prefecture and Tokyo.

    Suzuki, Daihatsu, Toyota, and CJPT will continue to promote efforts to practically achieve carbon neutrality through the provision of sustainable means of transportation.

    No provision for non-filers to purchase immovable property, motor vehicle: FBR

    ISLAMABAD: Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has said that no such provision was proposed through Finance Bill 2019 to allow non-filers to purchase immovable property or motor vehicles.

    In a statement on Wednesday, the FBR strongly refuted the news appearing in some sections of press which states that the new Finance Bill has allowed the non-filers to purchase immovable property or cars.

    The actual position is that the whole system of recognizing a non filer as a legal entity has been done away with in the new Finance Bill.

    FBR has explained that under Income Tax Ordinance, every person earning taxable income ought to file his Income Tax Returns.

    In case of failure of filing of Returns by persons involved in significant monetary transactions, a complete mechanism has been provided in the newly inserted 10th Schedule.

    such persons will not only have to pay 100 percent more tax at Withholding stage but will also be automatically assessed to tax and his imputable income will be treated as concealed income liable to penalties and prosecution.
