Gifting cars has become the new normal in the Bollywood industry and the director of Adipurush has become the latest recipient of it.
In the latest news, T-Series owner Bhushan Kumar gifts a Ferrari F8 Tributo to the Director of Adipurush, Om Raut. It has become a trend in Bollywood lately that the producers of the films are gifting cars to the actors or directors as a token of appreciation or saving taxes, in certain situations. It looks like the motivation behind this could be due to the latter. Here are the details of the Ferrari that was gifted in this case.

Bhushan Kumar Gifts Ferrari To Om Raut
This Ferrari F8 Tributo is a supercar that Bhushan Kumar owns. He has been spotted in it multiple times. However, he has reportedly gifted it to Om following the announcement of the Adipurush movie. In this video, Om is seen driving the Ferrari with Bhushan in the passenger’s seat. A few weeks earlier, Bhushan Kumar had gifted a McLaren GT to Karthik Aryan celebrating the success of Bhool Bhulaiyya 2. It is the new and modern method of rewarding the people involved in a movie.

More importantly, this Ferrari was being used by Bhushan Kumar as the company car and was registered under T-Series. Therefore, it could well be shown as a business expense. In that way, lakhs of rupees of taxes could be saved. If you use the vehicle for running your business, tax rebates are numerous. However, if the car is given as a gift, then there will be a higher tax applicable. Also, if the vehicle is gifted from the personal money of Bhushan Kumar, then Om will not be liable to pay any taxes but that scenario is unlikely.
