I want to know is there in refund can get by a Cloth Manufactured
In his Input Vat .
As on cloth there is no Out Tax
But the Raw MAterial is used by them is Taxable like thread, yarn, colour, chemicals etc. with Vat
Is there way that they can get VAT Refudn for that.

There is a rule / provision in the VAT Act and Rules that a dealer shall not get the set-off or refund of the input vat if at all there is no output vat. So, prima-facie, there can be no set-off or refund for the input vat so paid on purchases.
However, if at all there is any sale other that the main product, say any fixed asset, then the input vat can be set-off against the asset sale and the difference can be claimed as refund.
