A ltd. Subcontracts it further to B Ltd. who doesn't charge vat to A Ltd. since vat can be collected either by contractor or by subcontractor but not by both.B Ltd. pays vat on its purchases.
Since B ltd does not charge vat to A ltd, what will happen to the vat paid by B Ltd. can its setoff be claimed by A Ltd?
Also, if A Ltd takes service from another party (3rd party other than B Ltd.) can it claim the set off of the vat paid?
