Mr A's material requirement is sourced from Quarry work for which he pays royalty to government. other than this there is no other material cost to him. following were the exp incurred by him. Royalty paid to goverment - Rs. 7 lacs Extraction work from quarry - Rs. 13 lacs earth work - labour - Rs. 10 lacs Tranportion cost to site - Rs. 8 lacs Temporory structures ---------- Rs. 5 lacs Consumables Rs.7 lacs repairs & maintance-crusher Rs.12 lacs Establishment exp Rs. 25 lacs Please let me know in the above case whether KVAT will be applicable or not under regular vat scheme ? For VAT calculation What is the cost of material - Whether royalty paid to goverment will be treated as material cost whether tax paid on material used in temporory strtuctre will be available for input credit Whether Depriciation portion of crusher will be considered for establishment exp
