Mr Balwa: There is a point. Whether you are collecting VAT and ST in your bills or not. Now if the work value is Rs1L the amount taxable for ST is 40% of it ,i.e.Rs40,000-00. For Ex: ST rate is 15%.So,ST chargeable here is 15% of Rs40,000-00=Rs6,000-00.VAT is chargeable @5%,you say,i.e. composittion rate, which is equal to 5,000-00.Your bill should be for Rs1,00,000-00+Rs6,000-00+Rs5,000-00=Rs1,11,000-00......mjk
