As per the provisions of section 61 of MVAT Act, 2002 the dealers covered under this section are liable to submit Audit Report in Form 704. Alongwith Form 704, details of the customer-wise sales and customer-wise purchases are also submitted in annexure Jl and J2 with other requisite details. However, for the dealers who are not required to file Audit Report in Form 704 there was no provision to seek the information about the customer-wise sales and purchases and also other details. The information about the latter category of dealers were not available with the department. As a result of this, it was difficult to cross check the input tax credit in respect of the dealers claiming refunds. In order to mitigate this problem and to ensure speedy processing of refund claims and to expedite the cross check of input claims, it is felt necessary to prescribe information similar to Form 704 for dealers not liable to file Audit Report. Accordingly amendments have been made to rule 17 and rule 18.
