FIRST OF ALL, YOU SHOULD UNDERSTAND THAT EXCISE DUTY AND VAT BOTH ARE THE SEPARATE LEVIES. EXCISE IS APPLICABLE ON MANUFACTURED GOODS AND IT IS GOVERNED BY CENTRAL GOVT. WHERE AS, VAT IS APPLICABLE ON SALE TRANSACTION AND IT IS GOVERNED BY THE STATE GOVT. WHEN A MANUFACTURER SALES HIS MANUFACTURED GOODS, HE WILL CHARGE BOTH LEVIES i.e. EXCISE DUTY FOR HIS MANUFACTURING ACTIVITY AND VAT FOR HIS SALE TRANSACTION. I HOPE IT WILL SERVE YOUR QUERY IN ALL RESPECT.
ALTHOUGH, I DID NOT WANT TO SHARE MY VALUABLE TIME UPON YOUR QUERY DUE TO MY PAST BITTER EXPERIENCE WITH YOU THAT YOU HAD ALLEGED ME UN-NECESSARILY WITHOUT KNOWING THE REALITY AND TREATED ME IN INSULTING MANNER; STILL, I COULD NOT STOP MYSELF BECAUSE "Trees laden with fruit are always bent"
FURTHER, I DO NOT SHOW MY PHONE NO. WITH SUCH GREEDY INTENTION BUT I GIVE IT CONFIDENTLY, FOR THOSE WHO WISH TO TALK WITH ME OR WHO HAVE SOME DOUBT EVEN AFTER MY REPLY.
HOWEVER, IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT IN MY PREVIOUS REPLY REGARDING SERVICE TAX RANGE AND DIVISION, YOU ARE FREE TO CALL "ACES SERVICE HELP DESK" ON TOLL FREE NO. 1800 425 4251 on any working day from Monday to Friday between 9 AM and 7 PM and on Saturdays from 9 AM to 2.30 PM, OR CAN SEND YOUR EMAIL TO aces.servicedesk@icegate.gov.in (TAKEN FROM ACES OFFICIAL WEBSITE aces.gov.in).
AT LAST, YOU WILL REACH AT THE RESULT THAT I WAS CORRECT.
