Officers can’t buy cars above Rs 12L from CSD

The Army’s Quarter Master General (QMG) branch on May 24 directed that officers would be able to buy cars worth up to only Rs 12 lakh, excluding GST, and with an engine capacity up to 2,500 CC through the CSD route from June 1 onwards. A similar norm will be enforced for serving civilian officers in defence establishments. Other ranks or jawans, in turn, will be able to buy a car up to 1400 CC and not exceeding Rs 5 lakh, excluding GST, once during service and once after retirement.
