....lly based upon the definition of 'capital goods' contained under Section 2(f) of the U. P. Value Added Tax Act, 2008. It is contended that 'capital goods' are goods that are moveable in nature, and since silo is a storage tank embedded to earth, as such, it cannot be included within the definition of 'capital goods'. Reliance is also placed upon the definition of 'goods' defined under Section 2(m) of the Act. It is urged on behalf of the assessee that definition of goods under Section 2(m) is not relevant, and what has to be interpreted is the definition of 'capital goods', which constitute an separate and distinct category in itself.
