Perodua Grateful For Government’s Latest Decision On SST Break Registration Extension
The latest deal regarding sales tax is a good compromise, according to Perodua.
Perodua has expressed gratitude to the Malaysian government for its latest decision on the sales tax exemption. While the Ministry of Finance has not issued another extension on the SST break, it has compromised by allowing vehicle registrations as late as 31st March 2023 to enjoy the sales tax break, as long as vehicles were booked before the end of this month.
“We sincerely thank the government for this announcement as it gives the industry and the market breathing room to meet consumers demand while at the same time give the players time to overcome various issues that are affecting the industry,” Perodua President and Chief Executive Officer Dato’ Zainal Abidin Ahmad said.
He went on to highlight that local automotive suppliers were still recovering from component and manpower shortages as a result of COVID-19.
“These issues are currently being addressed as Perodua and our suppliers are finding solutions and this registration extension will give us much needed room to overcome these issues,” Dato’ Zainal said.
Dato’ Zainal added that this latest deal from the government would give Perodua customers the reassurance they need that they’d still be able to enjoy the ongoing sales tax exemption incentive.
“To date, we have significant outstanding orders which we are working to fulfil. We appreciate our customers’ patience in this regard,” Dato’ Zainal said. On deliveries so far, he said that Perodua has registered 106,179 vehicles between January and May this year, which is 10% more than 96,281 units registered in the same period last year.”
