Dear Sir,
We are in confusion to file the Vat Returns.
We have a Holding Orgnisation. We got Construction contracts from Govt. We given some portion of work to sub contract who is the Part of Group of Organization.
We paid all sales tax returns which is given inclusive of sub contractors materails.
Is this required to file the VAT returns in the same manner by Sub contractor also.
Please clarify the VAT issue in sub contractor point of view.
Subcontractors Must File Returns Under APVAT Act; Clarification Sought on Categorizing VAT and Avoiding Double Taxation A participant in a discussion forum sought clarification on VAT filing for a subcontractor within a group organization involved in government construction contracts. The main contractor had already paid sales tax, including on materials provided by the subcontractor. A respondent confirmed that subcontractors must file statutory returns under the APVAT Act. The original poster further inquired about how to categorize the VAT in the returns and raised concerns about potential double taxation, questioning whether the main contractor should issue a 501 Form to the subcontractor.
