18 January 2010 Hi,
Under Rule 54(a)no set off shall be available on purchases of motor vehicles (being passenger vehicles) which are treated by the claimant dealer as capital assets and parts, components and accessories thereof.
I guess the dealer has purchased pick up van. So full set off is avvailable.
Regards
