Gasoline Tax Law
Indiana · Assessment of Certain Forest Lands · §§ 6-6-1.1-1001 to 6-6-1.1-910 · 129 sections
Overview
The Gasoline Tax Law governs Indiana's excise tax on gasoline, setting out the definitions and rules of construction that control how the tax is imposed and administered. It regulates distributors and the physical infrastructure of gasoline handling — requiring gallonage totalizers and their sealing, identification markings on transportation equipment, and separate statement of the tax rate on sales slips, bills, and delivery statements — and it reserves the tax to the state by barring political subdivisions from imposing their own. Enforcement runs through administrative measures such as sealing pumps and impounding vehicles or tanks, criminal offenses for fraudulent refund claims, failure to remit collected tax, and use of untaxed gasoline, alongside civil remedies and a defined route for taxpayers to litigate disputes against the state.
