Vide above referred Trade Circular, the Sales Tax Department (“the S.T.D.”) barred the unregistered dealers/ persons/employers from directly paying their tax/ interest/ penalty/composition money/fees/fine/ amount forfeited/ amount of TDS into the Government Treasury. The S.T.D advised the authorized banks not to accept tax/ interest/ penalty/composition money/fees/fine/ amount forfeited/ amount of TDS from the unregistered dealers/ persons/employers.
This circular cannot be made use of for legal interpretation of provisions of law as it is clarificatory in nature. If any member of the trade has any doubt, he may refer the matter to this office for further clarification.
This office had issued a Trade Circular dated the 20th February 2007. A view had been taken in that Trade Circular that Section 6A of the C.S.T.Act, 1956 deals only with transactions between agents and principals and does not deal with transactions which are on a principal to principal basis.
The Department proposes to provide the compendium of e-services viz., e-return, e-registration, e-declarations, e-annexure, e-Form-704 etc. For availing of these e-services it is mandatory for the dealers to get enrolled with the Department’s web-site i.e. www.mahavat.gov.in .
Once the application has been approved the Central Repository staff would print the required number and type of statutory forms sign and dispatch them to the dealer s main place of business either through courier or Post.
After e-enrolment is made by a registered dealer, the ‘Acknowledgment’ will be made available on the website. The signed copy of the Acknowledgment is required to be furnished in the Department only once. After furnishing such copy, there is no need to furnish the signed acknowledgment of e-return which at present is required to be furnished within 10 days from uploading the return.
A new procedure has been prescribed for the payment of taxes, fees and returns by the dealers or employers seeking registration or not registered or not required to registered under MVAT Act vide Trade Circular 42-T of 2008 dated 26th December 2008.
Mandatory E-filing of Returns is applicable for Registered Dealers to whom the Explanation to clause (8) of Section 2 applies and whose tax liability during the previous year was rupees one crore or less, in respect of the period starting on or after 1st April, 2008.
