The Government of Punjab has made Nakku and Kinni the by-products of rice as tax free items by including them in schedule A of the Punjab VAT Act, 2005. It should be noted that Nakku and Kinni except when used by distillieries were taxable @ 5%, but now both the items have been made tax free without any condition.
Tax on pre-owned cars have also been imposed at the rate of 3000 per car if the engine capacity doesnot exceed 1000cc and 5000 in other cases. The relevant notification is being produced herebelow:
