XYZ Pvt. Ltd. purchased office furniture for Rs. 85000. It paid Vat @ 12.5% of Rs. 10,625 on above. My question is that can the company apart from claiming normal depriciation avail the VAT credit also. If Yes, on what amount it can and on what amount it can claim normal depriciaion. If no ,than on what amount will the depriciation is allowed for books and as well as tax purposes?
Company can not take VAT credit......................the company can claim depreciation on 95625 i.e.(85000+10625).
agreed with sandeep..
Compnay can not claim Vat credit.
Depreciation is charged on full amount ie including vat
yes company cannot claim vat credit . It can only claim depreciation on capital goods including vat amount as per Income varient of vat which is followed in india.

Agree...
Depriciation shold be provided @ 10% for 95625, since furniture is not put in to use for the production purpose and it is used for the administration/ Office activity the VAT cannot be taken as input credit.
According to me company can claim VAT, But at the time of sale, even as scrap then it has to deposit VAT on the same.
One cannot not avail dual benefit of claiming VAT Credit as well as claiming depriciation on purchase value (incl vat)
Hence the company cannot claim vat credit. It can claim only depriciation now.
but according to business law we used to handover under offical gazzette
in ur case its liable
yeah company cannot get vat credit it is fully depreciated
