We are Delhi based interior designers Registered with Delhi govt. for DVAT. We have no presence in Maharashtra. Our Client located in Mumbai wanted to Open an office in Delhi. We were awarded the contract for renovation work to be carried out in Delhi. On assessment of final payments we find that a deduction of 2% is made towards MVAT from our payment and certificates have been sent to us. Is it right to deduct MVAT at source when work was done in Delhi for a branch office to be opened in Delhi? And in case of wrong deductions how can we get the refund?
