Suppose Construction service provided of 40 lacs+12.5% WCT

Vat on Materials used in production =8 lacs+ 12.5% Vat

What is WCT payable assuming TDS Deducted by Contractee @ 4%

Input Vat=8*12.5%=1

WCT Payable=5-1=4 lacs

Less

TDS=40*4%=1.6 Lacs

Balance WCT payable=4-1.6 lacs=2.4 lacs

Example 2
