Vat on freight charges
This query is : Resolved
19 August 2011
In a manufacturing company, EDGP is being issued on the basic value of finished goods as under :
Ass. Value (say) X
ED @ 10.3 % on X
Freight Charges (say) Y
VAT @ 4 % OR 13.5% on : (X + ED on X + Y)
Total : (say) Z
Service Tax @ 10.3% on freight (on 30% rate value)
Total Value : Z + Service tax (on freight).
My query is :
1. Can we charges VAT on Freight if the freight amount is not included in the Ass. Value ?
2. If we have charged VAT on Ass. value & freight, then why should we charge Service tax again on only freight ? Is it not tax on tax ?

usually when the goods are sold at factory gate, vat is not charged on freight,
