The notification amends the Sales Tax Special Procedures Rules, 2007, to provide as under:
(i) Previous exemption from registration for CNG stations has been waived. Now, CNG stations shall obtain registration, if not already registered, and shall also file return on quarterly basis. It may be noted that tax on CNG on behalf of CNG stations is paid by gas distribution companies i.e. SNGPL and SSGC. Their supplies to CNG stations are charged at 24% of value instead of normal rate of 15%.
