I have been raised a query from one business house.
They have made Purchases of furniture and fixtures and other office equipments from MVAT Registered Dealers. The purchases are in the basic nature of leasehold improvements for their new office.
The entity does not wish to claim the input vat as refund and accordingly have filed their mvat returns. The entity is a registered dealer but does not have any MVAT payable transaction.
The query is as per S 61 of MVAT Act, it is the turnover of either purchases or sales crossing 60 lakhs. Hence, in this case, even though VAT purchases are crossing 60 lakhs, is the entity liable for MVAT Audit?
