A Registered Dealer can claim tax credit on his local purchases before the end of the financial year or before 90 days from the date of purchase, whichever is LATER.

As far as the penalty is concerned, an assessee who fails to file his return shall be liable to fine which may extend to Rs. 500 u/s 71(1) (a) of the TNVAT Act.

In addition to penalty, Interest @ 1.25% per month or part thereof shall be charged on the tax payable for belated filing of returns.

1.I have a doubt in regard to this. I have a purchase bill in JAN, the tax credit I have earned will probably not be availed before MAr31. Does it mean I can not use it in April and following months. I also have a bill in February so does it mean I can avail it for 90 day even..ie., even after this fiscal is complete. 2. The penalty and Interest mentioned, do the also apply for business which did not have a registration earlier and later want to file taxes for the unregistered period. Thank in Advance for your Help !!
