09 February 2012 Hi,

VAT paid on purchase can be classified under Purchase in Profit and Loss Account.

VAT collected on sale can be classified under Sales in the Profit and Loss account.

Net Difference if it is refund, it will appear in the current assets of Balance sheet and if it is payable, it will appear under current liabilities of Balance sheet.

in the above case, VAT paid during the year will also debited to Profit and Loss account.

It is the same case with Central Excise also.
