Payments of service tax as also VAT are mutually exclusive

February 20, 2008 8442 Views 0 comment Print

Imagic Creative (P.) Ltd. v. Commissioner of Commercial Taxes Payments of service tax as also the VAT are mutually exclusive. Therefore, they should be held to be applicable having regard to the respective parameters of service tax and the sales tax as envisaged in a composite contract as contradistinguished from an indivisible contract. It may consist of different elements providing for attracting different nature of levy. It was, therefore, difficult to hold that in a case of instant nature, sales tax would be payable on the value of the entire contract, irrespective of the element of service provided. The approach of the assessing authority, thus, appeared to be correct.

May 31, 2005 172254 Views 1 comment Print

The State-level Value Added Tax (hereinafter referred to as ‘Value Added Tax’ or ‘VAT’) comes into effect from April 1, 2005, in place of the sales tax structure prevalent in various States. The VAT intends to bring harmonisation in the tax structure of various States and rationalise the overall tax burden. The essence of VAT is that it provides credit/set-off for input tax, i.e., tax paid on purchases, against the output tax, i.e., tax payable on sales.
