For calculation of Sales tax , you need to add excise first, calculate total purchase cost then deduct amount of excise already added since MODVAT for the same is available...now this resultant figure wil be your purchase cost as per AS - 2
ls this right ?
Yes Vamshi Vuppala, your answer is correct. The solution above is wrong. Excise comes into picture only in production or manufacture. This is purchase.
