My assesee has voluntarily registered under MVAT as a dealer in computer spare parts & electronic appliances. For Oct to Dec 2012 he has not paid MVAT before due date neither he has filed MVAT Return. He is Non audit assesee. My query is

2) Also if the penalty of Rs 5000/- for non filing can be adjusted against the Initial deposit of VAT paid to the dept?

I booked an under-construction flat, the agreement of which was executed on 1st Feb 2010. The agreement value amounted to Rs. 40,11,000/-. Now the flat is ready for possession and builder has demanded payment of VAT at the rate of 5% of the agreement value which is Rs. 2,00,550/-.
I understand that the issue of 5% VAT is still pending in the court and final verdict is yet to be received.
As per my understanding the developers are allowed to compute the VAT using any of the following options:
1. Composition Scheme U/s 42 (3)- Under this scheme developer has to pay 5% tax on the agreement value. Land deduction is not available. Input tax credit is available subject to the reduction of 4 per cent.
2. Actual Expense Method U/r 58- Under rule 58, the deduction of Labour service charges is available on actual basis. Land deduction is also available. Set-off will be calculated subject to the condition u/r 53 and 54.
3. Standard Deduction Method U/r 58- Under rule 58, the deduction of land cost will be allowed. Thereafter 30% standard deduction from remaining amount will be available as per provision to sub-rule 1. Set-off will be calculated subject to the condition u/r 53 and 54.

As per these the developers can claim input tax credit. However the benefits received will not be passed on to the flat owner. Hence please advice what are the options available to me to reduce my VAT liability.

If the developer insists me to pay 5% of the agreement value what should I do to ensure that he passes on the benefit of input tax credit /favouring judgement to me? Please advice.
