Dear Experts,

I need a help in Karnataka VAT and Service Tax applicability on Work Contract.

A Company is in the business of Construction and Sales of Residential & Commercial Villas, Apartments in Bangalore, Karnataka. It receives Running Bills from Contractors and makes entries in the Books.

Now how much Service Tax & KVAT it should charge?

Is it like following:

VAT @ 70% of Total RA Bill Amount

Service Tax @ 40% of Total RA Bill Amount.

Here Service Portion & Material Value is not traceable.

Please suggest.

Yes it is 14.5% VAT on 70 % of total receipts and 40% of receipts for ST under normal scheme. Under composition it will be different. Further, for arrving at the works cost 40% of the receipts have to be deducted towards land cost. On the balance amount the above rates are to be applied....mjk

Dear Experts ,

Greetings to all.

I hav a query

I have a client who is into interior designing work, I wanted to know how to charge vat and service on the total bills he recieves and (note:) majority of his incomes are recieved in cash and partial is through bank.

For Eg: He charges his clients Rs10,00,000 for a single project out of which 4,50,000 is coming from cheque and remaining of 5,50,000 is cash payment. This is because most of his work is for residential purpose and a little for commecial purpose.

I seek your valuable advice on how to charge vat and service tax on the bills he charges

Plesae advice
