SC held that So far as the special discount is concerned, all that the authorities have to look into whether as a matter of fact, the petitioner received only the sum originally charged less the discount. It is the look out of the traders to see that the trade increase and it is for that purpose the trade discount is given. Hence, a person may not be able to clearly prove as to why the special discount was given. But if there has been a consistent practice of giving special discount, that has to be accepted by the assessing authority. The Assessing Authority shall not reject the appellants’ claim for exemption of the amounts of trade discount solely on the ground that the discount amounts were not shown in the sale invoices.
In exercise of the powers conferred by clause (a) of sub-section (4) of section 41 of the Maharashtra Value Added Tax Act, 2002 (Mat. IX of 2005) and in supersession of the Government Notification, Finance Department, No.VAT.1506/CR-135-A/ Taxation-1, dated the 30th November 2006, the Government of Maharashtra hereby, with effect from 1st March 2012, exempts from payment of tax in excess of five per cent of the turnover of sales, of motor spirits and petroleum products made by any of the oil companies mentioned in column (2) of the Schedule appended herewith, subject to the conditions and restrictions specified in column (3) of the said schedule, to any other oil company mentioned in the said list, namely :—
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.
Works Contract has always been a matter of dispute for judiciary as well as professionals. The Complexity of transactions can briefly be gauged from the fact that applicable provisions include levy of Sales Tax (As per State Acts), Service Tax (As per Central Government), TDS and WCT Deductible (as required in most of state act) all on one single running bill of a Larger Work Contract. The Fact that one Single Works Contract may run into years and thereby resulting in transactions like Mobilisation advance, running bills and advances adds to the jargon.

IX of 2005).
