Background of Actor Vijay's luxury car-case? Full details
The madras high court has ordered that actor Vijay should not be fined if he has paid the import tax in full before january 2019. Entry tax must be paid on cars imported from abroad. In that way, the Commercial Tax Department ordered to actor Vijay to pay entry tax on the car imported from America in 2005.
Against this, on behalf of actor Vijay, a case was filed in the madras High Court. The Commercial Tax Department again made an order for actor Vijay to pay Rs. 30 lakh 23 thousand 650 in 2021 as a penalty for the interim period of tax payment. Actor Vijay filed a case against this.
 During the trial, Vijay's lawyer argued that the penalty should be calculated at two percent per month from the time the car was imported, but a penalty of 400 percent is imposed by the Commercial Tax Department.
The case has been decided today. Accordingly, actor Vijay should not be fined if he has paid the tax fully before january 2019, and only if he does not pay the tax after january 2019, he should be fined. Thus the case is closed.
