One of my Clint has given plant and machinery on rent and he is charging vat on that, Is vat chargeable on rent of P& M, and if yes than what rate of VAT is applicable ?

13 January 2011 1. Principally the Vat is charged on the goods and service tax is charged on services.

2. Renting of plant & machinery is covered under Service Tax and it is a service

3. Hence the vat is not charged on Renting of Plant & Machinery.
