23 June 2014 Hello fnds,

yesterday i visited an AC restraunt.

we ordered food worth rs 1560 from the menu.

when i received the bill they were charging;

14.5% VAT on 1560 plus

10.3% ST on 1560.

is is right????
how can 1560 be both service and supply of food component???

WHAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE RIGHT WAY OF COMPUTING IT.

thanks for answering!!

23 June 2014 if your total food bill & service charge
is Rs.1560/-

then it is as follows

Bill Amt Rs.1560/-
VAT
(1560 X 14.5%) Rs. 226/-
Service Tax
(1560 X 40% X 12.36%) Rs. 77/-

Total Rs.1857/-
