VALUE ADDED TAX (VAT)

VAT is a broad-based commodity tax that is levied at multiple stages of production.

Indirect tax on the consumption of the goods, paid by its original producers upon the change in goods or upon the transfer of the goods to its ultimate consumers.

Based on the value of the goods, added by the transferor. It is the tax in relation to the difference of the value added by the transferor and not just a profit.

All over the world, VAT is payable on the goods and services as they form a part of national GDP. It means every seller of goods and service provider charges the tax after availing the input tax credit

It is the form of collecting sales tax under which tax is collected in each stage on the value added of the goods.

VAT will replace the existing system of inspection by a system of built-in self-assessment by traders and manufacturers. The tax structure will become simple and more transparent and tax compliance will improve significantly

Under VAT revenue is collected throughout the production process without distorting any production decisions

ADVANTAGES of VAT

•Simplification•Transparency•Fair and equitable•Computerization.•procedure of simplification.•Adjustment of tax paid on

purchased goods.•Greater reliance on self

assessment and voluntary compliance by dealers.

LIMITATIONS of VAT

IMPORTERS MANUFACTURERS DISTRIBUTORS WHOLESALERS

RETAILERS WORKS CONTRACTORS

LESSERS

How VAT works

• When a dealer sell goods, the sale price is made up of two elements; the selling price of the goods and the tax on the sale.

• The tax is payable to the State Government. The tax payable on sales is to be calculated on the selling price.

• The tax paid on purchases supported by a, valid tax invoice is generally available as set-off (input, tax credit) while discharging the tax liability on sales.

EXAMPLE

Company A buys iron ore and other consumables

and manufactures stainless steel utensils

Partnership firm B buys the utensils in bulk from Company A and polishes

shopkeeper C buys some of the utensils and purchases packing,

material from vendor D

Vendor D packages them and sells the packed

utensils for the public.

MAHARASHTRA VALUE ADDED TAXMVAT 2002

Maharashtra is one of the 21 States which have introduced the Value Added Tax (VAT) system of taxation from 1st April 2005.

The design of Maharashtra State VAT is generally guided by the best international practices with regard to legal framework, as well as operating procedures.

The consensus has been arrived at through the discussions in the Empowered Committee of State Finance Ministers on implementation of State level VAT.

On 1st April 2005, VAT replaced the single point sales tax.

MVAT replaced 4 existing taxes

1. The Bombay Sales Tax Act, 1959.2. The Maharashtra Sales Tax on the Transfer of

Right to Use Any Goods For Any Purpose Act, 1985·

3. The Maharashtra Sales Tax on the Transfer of Property in Goods Involved in the Execution of Works Contract (re-enacted) Act, 1989·

4. The Bombay Sales of Motor Spirit Taxation Act, 1958.

AREA OF RESEARCH

Why VAT is preferred over sales

Difference between

VAT and CST.VAT effect

on inflation.

VAT effect on economic

growth.

Why VAT is preferred over SALES TAX?In sales tax, final sales are not covered by the tax system e.g. due to difficulty of covering all the retailers, particular commodities may not yield any tax whereas with VAT some revenue would have been collected through taxation of earlier transactions, or eliminates the problem of tax cascading, which often occurs with sales tax.

Sales tax is often applied again to the sales tax element of the cost, thus there is a problem of tax on tax. This is not the case with VAT, which makes it a neutral tax as it provides the least disturbance to patterns of production and the generation and use of income.

This is made possible by the fact that one person’s output is another’s input. As with sales tax imports are treated the same way as local goods while exports are zero- rated to avoid anti-export bias.

Difference between VAT & CSTUnder the CST Act, the tax is collected at one stage of purchase or sale of goods. Therefore, the burden of the full tax bond is borne by only one dealer, either the first or the last dealer.

The VAT system, the tax burden would be shared by all the dealers from first to last. Then, such tax would be passed upon the final consumers.

Under the CST Act, the tax is levied at a single point. Under the VAT system, the retailers are not subject to tax except for the retail tax.

Under the CST law, concessional rates are provided on certain taxes. The VAT regime will do away with such concessions as it would provide the full credit on the tax that has been paid earlier.

VAT effect on INFLATION

In considering the introduction of VAT, countries are often concerned that it would cause an inflationary spiral. However there is no evidence to suggest that this is true.

Survey of OECD countries that introduced VAT indicated that VAT had little or no effect on prices.

In cases where there was an effect it was a onetime effect that simply shifted the trend line of the consumer price index (CPI).

To guard against any unforeseen price effects the authorities may consider a tighter monetary policy stance at the introduction of VAT

VAT effect on Economic Growth

Economic growth can be facilitated through investment by both government and the private sector. Savings by both parties are required in order to finance investment in anon-inflationary manner.

Compared to other broadly based taxes such as income tax VAT is neutral with respect to choices on whether to consume now or save for future consumption.

Although VAT reduces the absolute return on saving it does not reduce the net rate of return on saving. Income tax reduces the net rate of return as both the amount saved as well as the return on that saving are subject to tax.

RECOMMENDATIONS

KPCL Finance Department particularly Sales Tax Department is maintaining all the documents and invoices as per the requirement of Department of Sales Tax under government of Maharashtra.

After the study of Documentation and Procedure of

MVAT in KPCL. No recommendations as KPCL is doing its work as

per the latest rule sand regulations of department of sales tax.

Limitations of the study

The project DOCUMENTATION AND PROCEDURE OF SALES TAX (MVAT)is a topic that revolves around laws, rules and regulations of the GOVERNMENT of MAHARASHTRA. Hence, there was very less scope for practical implementation and analysis.

It is a very vast domain and in a period of less than 8 weeks it was not possible to cover all aspects in details and study each and every law, procedure or exemption in detail.

Scope for Future Improvement

KPCL Finance Department particularly Sales Tax Department is maintaining all the documents and invoices as per the requirement of Department of Sales Tax under government of Maharashtra.

All the invoices are updated on daily basis.Hence no recommendations to KPCL on this
