15 July 2011 Mr Author,
Leasing is another kind of sale only.Here you receive the cost(consideraation) in instalments.It may be for a long or short period.In the case of lease you have to entrust the machinery entirely to the lessees,i.e.they should do the operation,maintenance and fuelling by themselves.If you do these activities yourself,then it becomes hiring,in which case there will be no tax.Suppose you send an earth mover to a contractor for long use with your driver,deisel and lubricants,then it will be hiring.Lease rentals received will be declared each month in the returns and vat to be paid at the applicable rates.
