An Out door caterer supplied the foods, tea and snacks to the office premises. Said caterer is charging Service tax on total catering bills. Again he is charging VAT @12.5% on gross amount including service tax.
i) Is VAT applicable on outdoor catering Services.
ii) On which value VAT should be charged.

Please let me know whether CST rate reduction notification (i.e. from 3% to 2%) has been issued or not ? If yes, please give me the Notification No. & Date.

Can CST payable be adjusted against Input VAT while making monthly returns under Karnataka VAT ? For example a dealer who buys locally and sells entire goods outside the state. In such a case can he use Input VAT on local purchases against CST payable ?

Right to use movable properties like JCB or earth moving equipment to customers .

whether CST or VAT is applicable for stock transfer from one state to another state? if its applicable then also we have to provide the F form?

please any one tell what is the procedure for vat registration... if you had any idea about that please send it to pratheepa07@gmail.com. thanks in advance

tax on job work in UP VAT

My company old meld gold ,stone & dimond purchase from customer .Tax process in UP VAT.

Company's business is to hire reusable packages to its customers.

Customers are in state X and state Y.
Once cusotmer in state X completes his usage, he can send directly to the customer in state Y. If he does so, he has to pay CST as per my understanding.

Hence, to avoid that, we are going to show in the books as if he sent to the company of state x and do a stock transfer (from company in state x to company in state y) ie intra-stock transfer. But in reality customer x directly sends them to customer y.

Is this correct solution. Do you foresee any probelms with this solutioning?

Thanks for your advice.
