Right now i am doing statutory audit of Public limited which is engaged in Manufacturing.
Now the case is i found that printing and stationary exp. made on TAX INVOICE basis
I feel that input vat paid on such stationary should be claim, but my C.A. told me that such item not used directly in production so credit can' be claimed.
Now i want to know whether My C.A. Committment is correct or not?

Yeah agree with the above experts. If suppose we agree with your view then we as a final consumer pay VAT on so many products then we should be able to get the credit of it but it is not so. As righty said by Mr. O P Agarwalla that ITC is allowed on goods purchased for resale or for manufacturing.
