27 July 2014 I had recd. notice from st for disallowance of input tax credit for company as hawala dealer. Vendor whom I used to buy goods had valid vat tin. Vendorgot his vat tin cancelled but still continued to do business with everyone. Now, he has been declared as hawala dealer & we have got in to trouble for all the goods procured after his cancellation date. As purchaser how can i do audit of the vendor for every invoice whether his regn. is active or cancelled.

I have heard that this is just start now IT will also come and ask for disallowance + interest & penalty. Is there any way where I can avoid this.

27 July 2014 The law states that any input of VAT or ST is allowable only when the collector of such taxes pays to the govt.If it is found later that a bogus dealer has collected tax(VAT/ST) unauthorisedly he can be sued in a court. You can also demand such irregular collection to be refunded from the dealer.Here the ST/VAT departments have power to act on the basis your invoice as evidence to do inspection,audit or assessment, and recover such all wrong collections forcibly.If it is recovered so,you need not be penalised again.When such an action is initiated,recovery from you can be kept under suspense till that procedure is completed successfully/or dropped.....mjk
