31 October 2012 Sir,
Is it necessary to file monthly statement / returns of works contract in form VAT 27 even if there if no deduction of tax on account of works contract tax during the previous month.



31 October 2012 Is There any Different Form for WCT.
In The Same Form You Can file.
Which State ?

03 August 2025 For Works Contract Tax (WCT) and VAT filing, generally:

Yes, filing VAT-27 monthly returns is mandatory even if no tax was deducted during the month.

The return is to report the transactions and to maintain compliance with tax authorities.

Some states may allow a "Nil return" filing if no transactions or no tax deducted, but it depends on the specific stateโ€™s VAT/WCT rules.

Recommendation:
Check the exact rules for your state (since VAT/WCT rules vary by state in India). Most states require monthly filing of Form VAT-27 (WCT return) even if tax was not deducted, but filing a "Nil return" is allowed
