Works Contract is a single composite contract for Goods and Services. Goods portion liable to VAT and service portion liable to Service Tax . Consumables are treated as Service.

There are two methods to value Works Contract Service.

On the basis of Actual Value. like
- Labour charges + Amount paid to Subcontractor for Labour and other services + Cost of consumables.. etc.
On prefixed ratio basis
- i.e. In case of Original Works = 40% of total amount
- In case of Repair and maintenance = 70% of Total amount
- in other case = 60% of Total Amount.
