Dear Sir,
In case of Sales Tax deferred payment whether difference of the amount collected and the amount actually paid to the State Government should be included in the transaction value under the Central excise act 1944 and whether central excise duty is payable on the same.If yes please give us any reference regarding this, and under which rule ,Please expalin,thanks and regards
Transaction value includes deferred sales tax difference, making it part of assessable value for excise duty. Difference between sales tax collected and sales tax actually paid under a deferred payment arrangement constitutes additional consideration and must be included in the transaction value for determining assessable value for excise duty, per administrative clarification.
