The Telangana state government has issued a G.O. on Monday for levying entry tax on the vehicles entering into the state from the AP and all other states from April 1st onwards. However, vehicles having national permit may be exempted from the entry tax.
Earlier, when the Telangana government issues a similar G.O., the high court has forced the state government to withdraw it as it is against the AP reorganization bill. However, the court stayed any fresh taxes till March 31, 2015 only. Hence, the Telangana government has issued a G.O. today.
Hence, the Andhra Pradesh state government may also start collecting entry tax from the vehicles entering into the state from the Telangana and all other states from 1st April. If so, especially the vehicles plying between the AP and Telangana States will have to cough this additional tax and obviously this additional burden will be transferred back to the people only.
