Financier's liability

As per the terms of agreement in a Hire Purchase agreement, the Financier repossess & sell the vehicle, if the borrower defaults the due for payment. In such a case whether the Financier is liable to pay the Tax to the Road Transport Deptt for the period the vehicle was with its possession. Pls advice in the light of MV Act r/w respective Taxation Rules.

No finance is not liable to pay tax to government since vehicle is in sellers possession.

It is the responsibility/liability of registered owner of the vehicle irrespective of possession.
