Value Added Tax 3 DIRECT TAXES: Income Tax / Wealth Tax INDIRECT TAXES: Central Excise Duty/ Service Tax/Custom Duty/VAT DIRECT TAX / INDIRECT TAX If incidence of tax is borne by the person who is making payment of tax, such tax is called Direct Tax e.g. Income Tax or Wealth Tax but if incidence is borne by one person and payment is made by some other person, it is called Indirect Tax like Central Excise Duty, Service Tax, Custom Duty and Sales Tax. Income Tax and Wealth Tax are levied and collected by Central Government and are monitored by Central Board of Direct Taxes.

VALUE ADDED TAX Concept of Value Added Tax was introduced first of all in France in 1954. Value Added Tax 4 It was introduced in India in Central Excise Duty w.e.f 1 st March 1986 and at that time it was called MODVAT (Modified Value Added Tax) but afterwards its name was changed as CENVAT (Central Value Added Tax). Central Excise Duty and Service Tax is charged by Central Govt. and its tax credit is called Cenvat and the rules for Cenvat Credit are given in Cenvat Credit Rules, 2004 (Applicable w.e.f 10.09.2004). Concept of tax credit was introduced in Sales Tax in the year 2005 and Sales Tax is being charged by the State Govt. and accordingly every State Govt. has its own Value Added Tax Act (For example in Delhi Delhi Value Added Tax Act, 2004) Tax credit rules are the same for different tax but there is some difference because some of the tax are charged by the Central Govt. and some of the tax are charged by State Govt. Question 1 (V. Imp.): Explain the concept of Value Added Tax / Explain Taxonomy (process of making groups) of VAT/ Different stages of VAT. Answer: Before VAT If a Manufacturer has sold goods to the Wholesaler and has charged sales tax and Wholesaler has further sold the same goods to the Retailer and has again charged sales tax, in this case there are two anomalies (defect): (i) Sales tax has been charged twice on the same item. (ii) There is sales tax on sales tax (it is called cascading effect) Example If a Manufacturer has manufactured certain goods and cost price is 1,00,000 and his expenses plus profit is 20,000 and sales tax is 10%, in this case goods shall be sold for (1,00,000 plus 20,000) + (10% of 1,20,000) = 1,32,000. If the Wholesaler is purchasing goods from Manufacturer for 1,32,000 and his expenses plus profit is 20,000 and is charging sales tax @ 10%, the goods shall be sold for (1,32,000 plus 20,000) + (10% of 1,52,000) = 1,67,200. The Retailer has added his expenses plus profit of 20,000 and is charging sales tax @ 10%, the goods shall be sold for (1,67,200 plus 20,000) + (10% of 1,87,200) = 2,05,920. In this case sales tax has been charged three times on the original amount of 1,20,000 (once by manufacturer, once by the Wholesaler and once by retailer) accordingly a single item has suffered sales tax three times. Further the Wholesaler has charged sales tax on the amount of the sales tax paid by him i.e. there is sales tax on sales tax which is called Cascading Effect. After VAT The above anomalies can be rectified with the help of VAT. Under VAT, the Wholesaler is allowed to take tax credit of 12,000 being the sales tax paid by him and he

Value Added Tax 5 will be selling the goods for 1,40,000 (1,20,000 + 20,000), sales tax charged by him shall be 14,000. Since he has taken credit of 12,000, net sales tax payable by him shall be 2,000 and it will be called value added tax i.e. sales tax is only on the value addition of 20,000. Similarly, the Retailer shall be allowed to take credit for the tax paid by him and he will pay sales tax only on the value addition. The tax paid by the Wholesaler to the Manufacturer shall be called his Input tax (12,000) and tax charged by him from the Retailer shall be called Output tax (14,000) and tax payable by him shall be called Net tax (2,000). Value Added Tax is a Multi Stage tax and is being charged at every stage of sale and these stages are called stages of VAT and are as given below: 1. Manufacturer to Distributor 2. Distributor to Wholesaler 3. Wholesaler to Retailer 4. Retailer to Consumer Question 2 (V. Imp.): Explain concept of input tax credit. Answer: If any Registered Dealer is purchasing goods within a particular State and has paid value added tax and subsequently the goods were sold either in the same State or to some other State, in that case such Registered Dealer shall be allowed to take credit for input tax, however, tax credit is allowed only to the Registered Dealers and further registered dealer should purchase goods only from registered dealer i.e. if the goods have been purchased from unregistered dealer, no VAT credit is allowed. Registration is required if the sale turnover has exceeded the threshold limit (basic limit) of 10 lakh during the year. Voluntary registration is allowed to every dealer at any time. Example Mr. D is a dealer registered in Delhi and he purchased goods of 20,00,000 plus Delhi VAT @ 12.5% and sold the goods in Delhi for 30,00,000 plus Delhi VAT @ 12.5%, in this case, tax credit for input tax shall be allowed and computation of output tax, input tax and net tax shall be as given below: Sale 30,00,000 Output Tax @ 12.5% 3,75,000 Less: Input Tax credit (20,00,000 x 12.5%) 2,50,000 Net Delhi VAT Payable 1,25,000 If in the above case goods were sold to an unregistered dealer in UP and Central Sales Tax was charged @ 12.5%, in that case also tax credit is allowed and tax treatment shall be as given below: Sale 30,00,000 Output Tax Central Sales Tax @ 12.5% 3,75,000 Less: Input Tax credit (20,00,000 x 12.5%) 2,50,000 Net CST Payable 1,25,000 If the goods have been sold to some Registered Dealer in U.P. and Central Sales Tax was charged @ 2%, in that case also, tax credit is allowed and tax treatment shall be as given below: Sale 30,00,000 Output Tax Central Sales Tax @ 2% 60,000 Less: Input Tax credit (20,00,000 x 12.5%) 2,50,000

Value Added Tax 6 Balance VAT Credit (to be carried forward or refund can be taken) 1,90,000 If the goods have been purchased from outside the State and has paid Central Sales Tax to that particular State, tax credit for such INPUT TAX is not allowed. If in the above case goods were purchased from Punjab and CST was paid @ 2% and the goods were sold either in Delhi or in some others States, tax credit is not allowed and tax treatment shall be as given below: Example (a) Goods sold in Delhi Sale 30,00,000 Output Tax @ 12.5% 3,75,000 Input tax credit is not allowed Nil Net Delhi VAT Payable 3,75,000 (b) Goods sold to Unregistered Dealer in U.P. Sale 30,00,000 Output Tax Central Sales Tax @ 12.5% 3,75,000 Input tax credit is not allowed Nil Net CST Payable 3,75,000 (c) Goods sold to Registered Dealer in U.P. against Form C Sale 30,00,000 Output Tax Central Sales Tax @ 2% 60,000 Input tax credit is not allowed Nil Net CST Payable 60,000 Tax credit in case of goods exempt from output tax If raw material or other goods have been purchased and have been utilized in manufacturing, processing or packing of the product which is exempt from VAT, no VAT credit shall be allowed on such purchases. Tax credit in case of Export or supply to Special Economic Zone If the goods have been exported, in that case such export sales are exempt from excise duty or VAT etc but even then as a special case tax credit is allowed and export goods are also called zero-rated goods. Similarly if the goods have been sold in Special Economic Zone, there will be same procedure as in case of export. Special Economic Zone means a specific area which has been declared to be SEZ by the Government and the persons having their units in the SEZ shall be required to export the goods manufactured by them and there will not be any output tax. The persons selling goods or providing services in the SEZ shall not charge any tax from the buyers in the SEZ but the seller shall be allowed tax credit as a special case. Example Mr. X is a manufacturer and is registered in DVAT ACT, 2004 and he has purchased raw material for 20,00,000 and paid DVAT @ 4% and manufactured certain goods which were sold in Delhi for 30,00,000 and the goods are exempt from DVAT, in this case, tax credit is not allowed and tax treatment shall be as given below: Sale 30,00,000 Output Tax Nil Input tax credit is not allowed Net Delhi VAT Payable Nil If in the above case goods have been exported or goods have been sold in Special Economic Zone (SEZ), tax treatment shall be as given below: Sale 30,00,000

Value Added Tax 7 Output Tax Nil Input tax credit is allowed (20,00,000 x 4%) 80,000 Net Delhi VAT Payable Nil Dealer can claim refund for such unutilized input tax credit. Stock Transfer If any dealer has purchased goods within the state and the goods were stock transferred to some other state, in such cases VAT credit is allowed after retaining 2% of the input tax. Example ABC Ltd. has purchased raw material for 20,00,000 in the state of Delhi and paid DVAT @ 12.5% and goods were stock transferred to there branch in U.P., in this case input tax credit allowed shall be 20,00,000 x 10.5% (12.5% - 2%) 2,10,000 Question 3 (V. Imp.) : Explain Central Sales Tax including rates under Central Sales Tax. Answer: Central Sales Tax was introduced in 1956 through Central Sales Tax Act 1956. Prior to levy of CST, State Governments use to charge sales tax even in case of inter-state sales and there was multiple taxation on the basis of nexus theory e.g. If seller was in Punjab and buyer was in U.P., both of the States collected sales tax because of nexus i.e. connection of the sales transaction with each of the state. In order to check the problem of multiple taxation, Central Sales Tax Act was enacted (to pass a law) in 1956 and in case of Inter State sale, Central Sales Tax was levied and it was to be collected by the State Government from where the sales has taken place. It is collected by the State Government on behalf of the Central Government but as per provisions of Central Sales Tax Act, the tax so collected shall be retained by the respective State Government. As the purpose of levying of CST was not to collect Central Sales Tax by the Central Government rather the purpose was to check multiple taxation. If Central Sales Tax has been paid in one particular State as input tax and output tax is to be paid in some other State, tax credit shall not be allowed for such input tax e.g. A registered dealer of Delhi Mr. D has purchased certain goods from Punjab for 1,00,000 and paid Central Sales Tax to the Punjab Government 2,000 @ 2% and subsequently the same goods were sold in Delhi for 1,50,000 and has charged local sales tax @ 12.5% amounting to 18,750, in this case VAT credit of 2,000 shall not be allowed and entire amount of 18,750 shall be paid to the Delhi Government. If the Dealer has purchased goods from Delhi and has sold the goods in U.P. and has collected Central Sales Tax from the buyer in U.P., in this case such CST has to be paid to Delhi Government hence VAT credit for input tax paid in Delhi shall be allowed. Rates under Central Sales Tax If the goods have been sold to a dealer registered under Central Sales Tax, rate of CST shall be equal to LST but subject to highest rate of CST at 2%. If goods have been sold to any other person, rate of CST shall be equal to LST and it can be shown as given below: Rate of LST Sale to Dealer Registered under CST Sale to any Other Person 1% 1% 1% 2% 2% 2% 3% 2% 3% 10% 2% 10% 12% 2% 12%

Value Added Tax 8 12.5% 2% 12.5% The dealer selling the goods to the registered dealer shall obtain Form C from the purchasing dealer being the proof of his being a registered dealer. If the goods are sold to the Government department, it will not be considered to be registered dealer. Question 4 (V. Imp.): Write a note on registration under State VAT Act and Central Sales Tax Act. Answer: Registration under State Value Added Tax Act Compulsory Registration A dealer must apply for registration in the following cases: (i) If the turnover has exceeded 10 lakhs at any time during the year. (ii) He is registered under Central Sales Tax Act, 1956. (iii) He is purchasing goods from outside the state for sale within the state. Example Mr. X is an unregistered dealer in Delhi,. His sales turnover is 5,00,000 but he is purchasing some of the goods from outside Delhi, in this case, he should apply for compulsory registration. If in the above case, he is not purchasing goods from other States but he is selling some of the goods to other States, in that case also registration is required. If he is not purchasing goods from other States and also not selling goods to other states, registration is not required but if turnover is exceeding 10,00,000, registration is required. Voluntary Registration Any dealer may apply for voluntary registration under State Value Added Tax Act at any time. Only dealer registered under State Value Added Tax Act can charge VAT and can issue tax invoice and VAT Credit is only allowed on the basis of tax invoice. Registration under Central Sales Tax Act, 1956 Compulsory Registration If any dealer has effected any Sale from one state to the other, registration is required under Central Sales Tax Act. Voluntary Registration If a dealer is registered under State Value Added Tax Act, he may apply for registration under Central Sales Tax Act at any time. Registration under State Value Added Tax Act and Central Sales Tax Act shall be different. TIN (Tax Payer s Identification Number) is a code to identify a tax payer. It is the registration number of the dealer. The taxpayer s identification number will consist of 11 digit numerals throughout the country. First two characters will represent the State code as used by the Union Ministry of Home Affairs. The set-off of the next nine characters will be, however, different in different States. TIN will help cross-check information

Value Added Tax 9 on tax payer compliance, for example, the selective cross-checking of sales and purchases among VAT taxpayers. Question 5: Write a note on amendment in registration. Answer: Amendment in Registration certificate Registration certificate can be amended in the following situations: 1. If there is change in the name of business. 2. If there is change in the place of business. 3. If there is change in the nature of business i.e. Trading is converted into Manufacturing or Manufacturing is converted into Trading. 4. If one or more new goods have been included or one or more goods have been deleted 5. If there is change in the Constitution e.g. Partnership Firm is converted into Proprietary or Proprietary is converted into Partnership Firm. 6. If there is any other similar change. Amendment can be made at the request of the dealer or the department can make amendment on its own. Question 6: Write a note on cancellation of registration certificate. Answer: Cancellation of registration VAT registration can be cancelled on: (i) Discontinuance of business; or (ii) Disposal of business; or (iii) Death of the dealer (iv) Annual turnover falling below the specified limit e.g. In case of Delhi VAT if turnover becomes less than 10 lakhs (v) Violation of the provisions of State VAT Act leading to cancellation of certificate Illustration 1: Compute the invoice value to be charged and amount of tax payable under VAT by a Registered Dealer who had purchased goods for 1,50,000 (exclusive of VAT) from the same State and after adding for expenses of 12,000 and profit of 25,000 had sold in the same State.
