b) in addition to those sales, dispatches taxable goods or goods exempted u/s 5 outside the state otherwise than a direct result of sale or purchase in the course of interstate trade or
c) puts to use the inputs purchased for any other purpose (other than sale, manufacturing processing , packing or storing of goods),
d) falls under any of the above clauses and also purchases any petroleum product for use as fuel in production of any goods or captive power.
In addition to the use in course of his business, he shall be required to apportion and attribute the input tax between such sales/dispatches and other purposes.
The scheme of partial rebating would also apply to petroleum products (eligible for set off).
The rule deals with finding out the non-deductible input tax as follows -
(Sales of exempt goods + non taxable transactions) X total input tax
Total sales (including non-taxable transactions)
This amount has to be deducted from the total input tax to arrive at the deductible amount of
Input tax.
Note: - All input tax directly relating to sale of exempt goods is not available. All input tax directly relating to taxable sales may be deducted, subject to provisions of Section 11. Purchase of petroleum items/fuel items specified u/s 11(6) shall be subjected to special rebating u/s 14 and if used towards both taxable as well as exempted activity/stock transfers outside state, to partial rebating u/s 17 as well.
