VAT online Return

[guna ch]

Dear sir,

my Inter-state sale is rs. 1,58,85,470/- and CST Collected is Rs.3,17,701/-

I am showing net sales in the online VAT return form 200 as 15885470/- (Sales Others-CST )

one of my superior  said that here we should show gross including CST.

What is correct kindly advise me sir we are from Andhra Pradesh

AI Summary

Taxable amount reporting: record net sales excluding VAT/CST in online returns to reflect taxable value.
The statutory definition of sale price excludes any tax charged under the VAT rules, so online returns should record the taxable amount (net of VAT/CST); that net taxable value is the basis for calculating VAT liability and must be reconciled with accounting records to support assessments and audits.
