QUOTE(T.T.C. @ Oct 6 2022, 10:22 PM) Commercial and company-owned vehicle are different. Commercial licensing vehicle are those with PUSPAKOM disc displayed on windscreen with company's / owner's name painted on the body. Any car can be commercial vehicle as long as you fulfill it's requirement. I'm sure you seen before Proton Saga, Mit Triton used by TM or TNB, those are commercial vehicle. For commercial vehicle, full CA based on purchased price. Thanks for your reply T.T.C, much appreciated it and understand it now, seems like it is not feasible to make it a commercial car.From my understanding, in this case, if buy recond car at RM150,000, the eligible Capital Allowance will only be RM50,000, and if the director is using the car, need to declare the benefit of using the car for income tax purpose. What will happen to the difference example RM150,000 - RM50,000 = the RM100,000 for company accounting/tax perspective? is it not feasible/encourage to make it a company car, as only RM50,000 will be allowed for Capital Allowance, or did I miss other benefit/calculation that will benefit the business in tax? Thank you very much |

QUOTE(T.T.C. @ Oct 7 2022, 09:53 AM) While road tax and insurance are much more expensive, it's more beneficial for it to be company-owned. If you are a Sdn Bhd / Bhd owner, you can refer to your appointed accountant to calculate the benefits in 3 years or 5 years, from there, you can make your judgement. I can't comment much as I'm not an accountant but just a businesses owner who owns both commercial registered and company owned vehicles. Thank you T.T.C. for your insight, will check with our accountant on the benefit of placing the car as company car. Have a nice weekend ahead |
