Works contract


This query is : Resolved 

11 September 2011 1. we are providing service of laying of
LAN,WAN , NETWORKING.
2. we get the contract from the companies
for laying of the network and for sale
of items.( i.e divisible contract).
Normally the contract take 2 to 3 month
to complete.
3 my question is what kind of registration
we required in Delhi vat . should we go
for simple registration or should we go
for works contract registration.
4. and also how should we account for
income from these work contract. the
bill for laying of lan and for sale of
material is issued after completion of
contact

12 September 2011 Mr Sandeep,
This comes under normal VAT registration,because you are engaged in sale and works contract also.If your contract is fully divisible,i.e.you raise bills for labour charges and sale of materials separately the matter becomes very easy.You can claim exemption on all labour charges and declare the sales only.
If you are doing a composite contract,i.e.
quoting rates on the finished work,then you have to account the labour expenses and works expenses properly and claim exemption on them. The balance amount will be taxable.

17 September 2011 thanks a lot..

but one this is not clear sir,

1. how should we account for
income from these work contract. the
bill for laying of lan and for sale of
material is issued after completion of
contact. do we have to make provision for contract on percentage completion method in respect of project which are started before march 11 and which will be finalised in next financial year and bill will be raised in next financial year

thank in advance

17 September 2011 Mr Sandeep,
You can raise bills for laying of lan and supply of materials seperately. For the incomplete works remaining at the end of the year suitable provision has to be made in the form of work-in-progress and in the next financial year bill may raised after completing the work.
