Excise and vat

Dear friends ,

I  have been working in a Service Providing Company. I  dont have clear  idea in the subject like Excise and VAt .

 I like to get the following matter clear .

suppose a Manufacturing company has purchased an  Item valuing as follows .

 

 

value of goods  10000
add : packing  250
assessable value  10250
excise duty @ 12.36% 1266.9
total  11516.9
add vat @ 4% 461
   
 value of invoice  11978

 

 Now the company making  value addition with the aforesaid item purchased .

Now , after value addition , Company is selling its product  to  two  different customer ( either / or ) .

May be  within West Bengal  or   to  outside state.

if  Invoice made to Customer within West Bengal  :  

 

 

value of goods    15000       
add : packing  250
assessable value  15250
excise duty @ 12.36% 1884.9
total  17134.9
add vat @ 4% 685
   
 value of invoice  17820

***  Here value of Goods includes component of Excise and Vat previously  charged by the seller of the goods .

if Invoice made to Customer outside state :

 

value of goods  15000
add : packing  250
assessable value  15250
excise duty @ 12.36% 1884.9
total  17134.9
add CST  @ 2 % 343
against C Form   
 value of invoice  17478

 

Kindly suggest

1) the Accounting Entry for the whole transaction

2) Tax Incidence ( Excise and Vat and CST ) .

If , any  Insurance and forwarding Charge is there would it put any impact on Accounting as well as Taxability ?

 

Regards ,

Debashis Banerjee .

ANSWER 1 :

 

CASE 1 : ( WITHIN WEST BENGAL SALES )

Customer A/c                                    Dr.                17,820

    To Goods A/c                                                                     15,000

    To packing material A/c                                                           250

    To Exice Duty A/c                                                                1,885

    To Vat Payable A/c                                                                 685

 

CASE 2 : ( OUTSIDE WEST BENGAL SALES )

Entry would remain same except for the VAT PAYABLE A/c . It would be replaced by CST PAYABLE A/c . Amounts would change .

 

ANSWER 2 : 

 

CASE 1 : Output VAT = 685 , Input VAT = 461 and so balance payable = 685 - 461 = 224

CASE 2 : Output CST = 343 , Input VAT = 461 and so there is a VAT REFUND and CST Liability and hence net CST PAYABLE = Nil and balance VAT REFUND = 461-383 = 118

 

ANSWER 3 : 

 

In case if there is insurance charges incurred then it will form a part of the INVOICE VALUE , however there would be no EXCISE DUTY OR VAT/CST calculated on it .

In case if there is forwarding charges incurred in Local sales ( Within the state ) then VAT will be calculated on it   i.e

(Basic + Packing + Excise Duty + Forwarding) * VAT RATE 

In case if there is forwarding charges incurred in Outside the state sales  then there will be no CST calculated on it .

 

Ok ...
