VAT

In Karnataka the full credit of VAT paid on capital goods is available in year of purchase. The entry would be to account for the CG net of VAT and therefore the question of depreciation being charged on that should not arise.

If that was done it would amount to double benefit.

.... the above one is right, but u can't able to take 100% credit in one year. 50% in the year of purchase & the other part in next year.

As per  APVAT Act 2005 you can claim 100% input tax credit on capital goods. If you need any further information you can contact me on mobile 09246527173  or  e mail  me  gsupadhyay @ sify.com  (Ghanshyam upadhyay., VAT Consultant,  Hyderabad.)
