About VAT return filing: Companies are required to file returns periodically. Initially companies will be expected to file returns every quarter or monthly depending on their turnover.

 

By the end of each filing period business must compile the data on tax paid and tax collected and file the returns following the computation guidelines. A tax liability can accrue as early as the date on which an order advance is received. If no advance is received then the date of delivery or invoice, whichever is earlier will be taken into consideration.

 

Some examples for adjustments:

• Sales Returns

Companies will be allowed to reverse the tax paid on Sales returns

• Bad Debts

The Law will have a provision to account for bad debts and recover the tax paid on such transactions.

 

Audit of Records

Government may directly or through its appointed agents demand to audit the tax returns of the companies. Companies are required to maintain physical records of all purchases and supplies as also maintain complete registration details of suppliers and customers. Although a completely digital system for tax filing will be in place, the government may expect companies to furnish proof of returns. The VAT will be based on Self-Assessment and the onus will be on the companies to accurately account for the output and input tax.
