Dear Sirs,

I have given below the format that is available in Form I of TNVAT return regarding input vat credit on capital goods. In which I have fiiled up figures for the following transaction. Please let me know whether I am correct or not.

For example, a capital item is purchased for Rs. 4 lakhs after having paid a sum of Rs. 58000/- (14.5%) during the current month. The ratio of taxable and exempted turnover is 50:50.

 

INPUT ITEMS Purchase value during the month (Rs.)   Input Tax credit (VAT paid)(Rs.)
CAPITAL GOODS                                              Eligible Input Tax Credit (Rs.)
(a)Upto previous month                   NIL                    NIL
(b)During the month                4,00,000                        29000
Total 4,00,000 29000
Less: Reverse Credit*                          14500
TOTAL (NET)          (D)           (D1) 14500

In the above, I have taken 50% of 58,000/- i.e. Rs. 29000/- (being 50% is eligible during the first year) and I have taken Rs. 14,500/- as credit for the 50% of taxable turnover. Sirs, Is it possible to carry forward the remaining Rs. 14,500/-  i.e. the balance available in the "Reverse Credit" row to the next month for adjustment.
