If you have qualified for all the eligibility criteria for presumptive taxation, then you can easily calculate your income under this scheme. 

  • For the heavy goods vehicle, the tax amount is equal to INR 1000 for each ton of the total weight of the vehicle for each month the vehicle is owned by the owner. The tax amount that the assessee claims should be earned during the last financial year. 
  • For the light goods carrying vehicle, the amount is equal to 7,500 INR must be taxed each month, and it will apply to all vehicles that were owned by the assessee in the last financial year.

    I have 20 goods-carrying vehicles. Am I eligible for presumptive taxation under section 44AE?

      No, you are not eligible for the presumptive taxation under section 44AE if you have 20 good-carrying vehicles because it is only for the small businesses which not have more than 10 goods-carrying vehicles in a financial year.

    Heavy goods vehicles are the vehicles that carry goods of weigh of more than 12,000 Kg, and light goods vehicles are those vehicles that carry weights up to 12,000 kg.
