Dealer Receives Demand Notice for 2006-07; Section 27 of TNVAT Allows Revisions Within Six Years for Escaped Turnover A registered dealer in Tamil Nadu under TNVAT completed CST and VAT assessments up to 2012-13 and 2011, respectively, but received a demand notice for the 2006-07 assessment year. The responder explains that under Section 27 of TNVAT, assessments can be revised within six years if turnover has escaped assessment or was assessed at a lower rate. Additionally, input tax credit issues can prompt reassessment. The dealer must receive a notice before any revision. For 2006-07, Rule 87-A applies, requiring assessment based on returns filed within prescribed timelines. The dealer should review the notice in this context. (AI Summary)
