A company which follows schedule xiv rates of Companies Act for depreciation. But this company depreciates its assets upto 95% of the historical cost of the assets. There after it does not provide any depreciation in the books. whether company is correct in doing so or not?

I would like to give two cases:
1) Contract for printing files / envelop / writing pad etc on which logo as well as name of my company is appearing.
2) A book which contains financial performance of the company.

In both the cases we do not supply any material to the printer like paper/ink etc.
My question is:
1)whether above two cases are works contract or contract for purchase of goods.
2)whether contractor can charge VAT for doing above job.

Our company have a caterer for two canteens who provide unlimited food and snacks.

The caterer charges 2 % on the value of food (single rate per meal), tea/milk/coffee and 4 % on snacks provided by them.
No VAT is levied on fruits.

I referred VAT Act and no where i could find 2 %.

Is he right in charging 2%?

I had purchased 2000 shares of Remimetals Gujarat on 28-11-2007 Wednesday through icicidirect.com.These shares were under TT settlement. I tried to sell it on the same day but they said that i cannot sell as i dont have enough shares in my demat account. Is it because of monthly settlement on the next day or is there a group of shares which cannot be sold on the same day? If there is any such group can u suggest a site from where i can get the information? Exactly what is TT settlement in brief?
