The above amount is cenvatable,then ok, if not cenvatable then what to do.

Based on the details provided, it seems there is a discrepancy between the order value and the invoiced amount. Let's address the excise duty and CST implications separately:
### Excise Duty Implication
1. **Order Value vs. Invoiced Amount:** - **Order Value by Mr. P (Purchaser):** Rs. 80,000 - **Invoiced Amount by Mr. B (Vendor):** Rs. 12,360
2. **Excise Duty Calculation:** - If the excise duty is applicable on the invoiced amount (Rs. 12,360), the calculated excise amount is Rs. 1,492 (assuming an excise duty rate of 12% which is common).
3. **Liability of Mr. P (Purchaser):** - Mr. P is generally liable to pay the excise duty based on the invoiced amount (Rs. 12,360), provided that: - The invoiced amount reflects the correct valuation as per the excise rules. - The vendor (Mr. B) is registered under Central Excise and has correctly charged and collected the excise duty on the invoiced amount.
4. **Cenvat Credit:** - If Mr. P is eligible for Cenvat credit, he can offset the excise duty paid on purchases (based on the invoiced amount) against his output liability when he sells the goods further.
### CST (Central Sales Tax) Implication
1. **CST Calculation:** - CST is applicable when goods are sold from one state to another (inter-state sales). - The rate of CST depends on whether the transaction is against a Form C (at concessional rate) or not (at higher rate).
2. **Liability of Mr. P (Purchaser):** - Similar to excise duty, Mr. P may be liable to pay CST on the invoiced amount of Rs. 12,360 if the goods are being purchased for inter-state sale. - The CST rate will depend on whether Form C is applicable or not.
3. **Documentary Requirements:** - Mr. P should ensure that proper documents like invoices, delivery challans, and relevant forms (like Form C for concessional CST rate) are obtained from Mr. B to comply with CST regulations.
### Action Steps
1. **Verification of Invoiced Amount:** - Mr. P should verify why the invoiced amount (Rs. 12,360) is higher than the order value (Rs. 80,000). - Ensure that the invoiced amount includes all applicable taxes (like excise duty and CST) and that Mr. B has correctly calculated and charged these taxes.
2. **Compliance and Documentation:** - Ensure all tax liabilities are correctly accounted for and paid based on the invoiced amount. - Maintain proper documentation including invoices, tax payment receipts, and Cenvat credit records.
3. **Consultation:** - If there are uncertainties or discrepancies, it's advisable to consult with a tax expert or Chartered Accountant who can provide specific guidance based on the exact nature of the transaction and applicable tax laws.
By following these steps, Mr. P can ensure compliance with excise duty and CST regulations while managing tax liabilities effectively.
