For Rajeshwar, a school teacher in Rajasthan’s Churu, the high maintenance and running costs of the vehicle was too much of a burden. “Even if we take the 28-lakh rupee as a gift we’ll have to pay 33% of the amount as tax. From where do we bring 9 lakh rupees? The car has very low mileage and one service costs Rs 85,000,” Rajeshwar told HT. 
 
Meanwhile, the director informed the media that the family had earlier kept the car 
because the boy’s maternal uncle in Mumbai could manage it. However, he said they want to sell it now as they need money for the treatment of the boy’s mother, who is a kidney patient 
 
Poonia has now said he will put up the car for sale at a function to mark the institute’s foundation day on December 15. 
“It’s an expensive car with a different clientele and it will be difficult to find a buyer for the car. The boy’s family is free to sell the car themselves too,” he said.
