Dear Jayaprakash: No. Trading concern cannpt take input credit.
 
As per Section 2 (11) of VAT Act,  capital goods is defined as follows:
“capital goods” means, –
(a) plant, machinery, equipment, apparatus, tools, appliances or electrical installation for
producing, making, extracting or processing of any goods or for extracting or for bringing about
any change in any substance for the manufacture of final products;
 
Thus only if a dealer uses the capital goods for manufacturing purpose he can take input credit. If he uses it for trading activity he cannot take the input credit.
