Fuel Benefit
From 6 April 2003 the fuel
scale charges, which applied when free fuel was provided
for private use in a company car, are swept away. The new
tax charge for private use of fuel takes the percentage
derived from the tables above, applied to a set value of
£14,400 rather than the vehicle's list price.
Example: In 2003/04 a
driver provided with free petrol for his company car that
has a CO2 emissions figure of 163 gr/km will be taxed on a
cash equivalent value of £2,304 (16% * £14,400) for that
fuel. |
