[Helpme]

Please advise me

[student_of_law]

Please elaborate the addition of value added tax @ 2% is under which section or SRO?

Generally speaking, according to s.8B of the sales tax Act, 1990, "a registered person shall not be allowed to adjust input tax in excess of ninety percent of the output tax for that tax period"

For example if out put tax is Rs.100, a registered person cannot claim input tax exceeding Rs.90.

Exception to the above rule is given in sub section 2 of s.8B

However, the input tax not so adjusted would be carried forward to next tax period as provided in Proviso to sub-section 1 of S.10. Later refund may also be claimed subject to such restrictions as notified by Board.

Dear HELPME,

There is no any value addition in as per your above example. However it is depand upon the status of registration of registered person to claim / adjust such additional tax 2% at import stage.
This additional tax 2 % is increases to 3 %.

In this case there is no payment / refund. (Kindly follow below two condition)

Cond # 1

If the Registered person is trader / Importers

He must pay 10 % of their sales as out put tax liability. only adjust 90 % of out put with input.

Cond # 02

in case of manufacturer/ Exporter

Registered person has not any obligation to pay / refund as per your example.



Dear Student of Law,

U r rite that 90% of the input is claimable. But i would like to explain that rule/Sec 8.b states that this rule only valid for those registered person who are traders or importers. such registered person must pay 10 % of their sales as out put tax.

Dear Umar,

Thanks a lot for your valuable guidance. But I need your further assistance.

You said that manufacturers are exempt from operation of s.8B(i.e. rule that input tax claimed should not exceed 90% of output tax). After reading your reply I re-read s.8B but did not find such exemption there. Then on searching SRO I found SRO 647(I)/2007 dated 27.06.2007

[url="http//www.fbr.gov.pk/sros/SalesTaxSROS/2007/2007sro647.pdf"] click for SRO 647(I)2007[/url]

After going through a few amendments through 2 SROs, later the whole table was changed w.e.f 01.07.2008 vide
[url="http//www.fbr.gov.pk/sros/SalesTaxSROS/2008/2008SRO529.pdf"] SRO529(I)/2008[/url]
A few entries were further added vide
[url="http//www.fbr.gov.pk/sros/SalesTaxSROS/2008/2008SRO713.pdf"] SRO713(I)/2008[/url]


After the above amendments now the updated version of SRO 647enlists persons and items who are currently exempt from s.8B. On reading it I found that all manufacturers are not exempt but it allows exemption to only such manufacturers who have paid input tax at certain rates exceeding 17%. Similarly, it also gives exemption to commercial importers subject to certain conditions. Distributors and wholesalers are all exempt

<u>Please quote the relevant section or SRO</u> on the basis of which you are of the view that all manufacturers and exporters are exempt while all traders and importers are not exempt from operation of s.8B

I once again thank you that your point has lead me to undertake this research and to share it with the other readers. Please correct me where I am wrong. Please also give basis of your stance that all manufacturers are exempt
