Pls clary whether to Charge Service Tax or VAT or Both
Querist : Anonymous
We want to know whether the rental of computers on Daily/Weekly/Monthly basis attracts Service Tax/VAT or Both?.
Some people say it's applicable under KVAT (Karnataka VAT) as the VAT is applicable on transfer of right to use of goods - some one told us there was also a court ruling in the favor of KVAT act from High Court b/w VAT comissioner and ISRO & Some say it comes under Service tax.
Please clarify which is the correct tax applicable & their reference if any.
Thank and Regards
In case of renting of movables, if the effective possession and control is transfered, VAT is applicable. In case effective posession and control is not transfered, Service Tax is attracted.
Since, in the case of hiring of PCs, effective possession and control are transfered, VAT shall be charged, in my view.
