Commissioner of Sales Tax in Maharashtra has informed to defer the submission of VAT Audit Report in Form 704 under the MVAT Act, 2002 to 15th of January, 2013 from the scheduled due date of 30th November, 2012. A Notification to this effect is expected on coming Monday, the 12th November, 2012.
In exercise of the powers conferred by sub-rule (1) and (2) of Rule 17A of the Maharashtra Value Added Tax Rules, 2005, the Commissioner of Sales Tax, Maharashtra State, Mumbai hereby, amends the forms appended to the Maharashtra Value Added Tax Rules, 2005 as follows, namely :—
The facility of remittance of refund through ECS will be optional to all the dealers in Greater Mumbai. However, in future the department proposes to make ECS refund scheme mandatory. Therefore, all the dealers who do not have Bank account in an ECS enabled Bank are advised to open an account in an ECS enabled Bank.
This office is in receipt of queries with regards to the admissibility of submission of returns, application for refund in Form-501, Audit Report in Form-704 or like documents and payment of amount towards VAT on the next working day immediately following due date which falls on Sunday or Public Holiday.
Judgments of the Bombay High Court in the case of Marathi Bandhkam and Ashok Gokani (Flat buyer) vindicate my stand that the MCHI judgment had merely decided the constitutional validity of the amendment made to the definition of sale and not whether a particular contract is a works contract or not,
The Department of Sales Tax, Maharashtra State has declared UPDATED list of Suspicious Dealers on 3rd November 2012 totaling to 1555 nos.
Writ petition in Builders case on Circular 14T of 2012 has been dismissed by Hon. Bombay High Court & Extension for administrative Relief and payment Date is also denied.
Government of Maharashtra is satisfied that circumstances exist which render it necessary to take immediate action further to amend the Maharashtra State Tax on Professions, Trades, Callings and Employments Rules, 1975 and to dispense with the condition of previous publication thereof under the proviso to sub-section (3) of section 27 of the Maharashtra State Tax on Professions, Trades, Callings and Employments Act, 1975 (Hah. XVI of 1976),
In exercise of the powers conferred by sub-section (5) of section 10 of the Maharashtra Value Added Tax Act. 2002 (Mah. IX of 2005), the Commissioner of Sales Tax, Maharashtra State, Mumbai, hereby amends the Notification No. Sr. D.C. (A and R)/PWR/ 1006/ 2/Adm-3, dated 6th October 2007 as follows, namely,
The recent judgment of Bombay High Court in case of MCHI vs. State of Maharashtra has caused further hardship to genuine flat buyers. The Hon’ble Court has upheld the constitutional validity of the amendment made to definition of Sale. The Court has also upheld recent scheme of Maharashtra Govt. to levy VAT of 1% on agreement value of flat purchased or 5% of value of accretion made by the Developers over immovable property. The composition scheme of 1% is applicable in respect of agreement registered on or after 1st April 2010. However, set-off or deductions earlier claimed in respect of such agreements will have to be reversed.
