17 August 2012 Each state has prescribed the definition of taxable turnover for calculating the tax due. You have not indicated your STATE.

In general, cash discounts, trade discounts are allowed for deduction from the total turnover.

Therefore, if the discount allowed falls in the above category, then vat is to be calculated on Rs.600.00.
