Dear Amer

Your query is interesting. VAT on medicines are included in the MRP so the price one pays for the medicine is inclusive of VAT so Retial Invoices are issued. Now coming to the question of VAT Input Credit. Input Credit is available to a reseller registered under the VAT Act. It is not available to the end customer.

Hope i have been able to answer your query

I would like to go with the same answer that Input tax credit available to whole seller & not to the patient.
