Vat

no it can be claimed only in installments

In Maharashtra you can take full credit in a single year. Please refer to your state Vat Act.

Input tax credit on capital goods can be claimed in india for a period not exceeding 36 months.

As the return is filed monthly, the credit has to be apportioned equally for 36 months and can be taken.

we can take it in installment.................

depends upon state tax act , in maharastra u can claim it completely in the year in kerale u need to take it in 3 years plz specify which state u belong to

agreed wid above replies

no yaar it cant be claimed fuuly once ......it will be claimed in 36 months.........the conseres stste govt may reduce this time period ......

Maximum installments allowed is 36................... Other facts correct as stated above and depending upon yr state VAT...................

Number of installments vary state to state and on merit of amount of ITC involved in capital goods,  

The credit will be spread over 3 financial years and not in first year itself. However,states has deviated from these provisions. In west bengal and kerala it is available for 36 months and  in karnataka 12 months installments....so it depends upon ur state vat act

Hi

My caterer has charged VAT on bill amount and service tax component in his bill. Whether the calc. done by him is correct?

He has availed abatement of 50% of service tax. I know that it is not correct. But i need a notification or a cirular or a provision of the act so that i can argue with him.

Can anyone help me in this regard?

Regards,

Kesava.
