in your case since you are not into business of selling old /second hand goods, Rule 32(5) of CGST Rules, 2017 shall not be applicable to you. As per Notification 08/2018 – Central Tax, you have to pay GST on Difference between Sales Consideration and the depreciated Value of old car provided that you have not taken credit on the car in FY 17-18.
